I know I would not sell mine for 200 or 300 and probably not even 400.
Way better than my Heresey I's
-
I'll try this again.
Thanks to Bob Crites

Here is the T-4000/5000 xover. Very similar to HII but uses 47 uf on woofer leg instead of 68 uf and 1 uf on mid versus 1.5uf on HII mid and the mid and tweeter polarities are switched.

I got a pr. of Klipsch Tangent T5000 spkrs. with 1 blown t-75 tweeter.
Titanium diaphrams on the from Bob C.
Funny thing-the tweeter that tested OK ws hooked up wrong (+ - ). The guy I got them
from swears they have never been opened. Also both tweeters were "loose". The 3 nuts
that hold the drivers to the horns were all about 4 or 5 turns back from snug.

wise man say...avoid tiger diect in general, and especially anything involving a rebate through them. I have had a few bad experiences and they no longer get my business.
Agreed !

Hello, I've owned both pairs you're considering and I would say without hesitation the T-5000 are the way to go. They're basically an original Forte but with a forward facing passive.
Can't wait to pick them up.
As far as opinions go... KG 4.5
All. The. Way.
Been playing around with a few different sources and amps and I like these more everytime I listen to them.

Hello from another Newbie,
I recently came across a pair of KG 4.5's which are sounding better every time I listen to them BUT am picking up a set of Tangent T5000's this week.
Bought them sight unseen from the original owner. I paid a lot less than most Forte's go for but I have to look at a black vinyl finish.
If I could afford them I'd get the Chorus.

I hooked them up to an old Sansui amp today (35W) and what a world of difference. They sound pretty good. Next step is to check the RCA cable and then the NAD amp and preamp. Will probably get the diaphrams and check the Xover after I get the NAD problems figured out. A friend mentioned something about the difference between British and Japanese electronics - all I know is about their motorcycles.
-
I finally listened to them for a few minutes and was surprized by the bass and disappointed by the tweeters. Not clean,clear or crisp at all.
What would be the first thing to check?

Well, I just could not resist picking up the KG 4.5's as they are in like new condition and the price was very fair. I still may get the Tangents but have not been home yet to audition these new to me speakers.
-
Kinda wondering why the Tangent 5000 were only built for 1 year.
-
Yes only for stereo listening. Sorry, not interested in RF or RB series

Hi,
I just sold my Altec 19's because we are moving from a country home to a condo or appt. I know our new home will be a lot smaller and we'll have people a lot closer than I'd like. As a former owner of Heresys, Altecs and EV's I would like your expert opinion on whether I should get the KG 4.5"s or the Tangent 5000 speakers I have found as I am traveling across western Canada to deliver the 19's
Size, performance,and weight are more important than price.
Any input will be appreciated.
WA-2 Wireless Sub Adapter help needed
in General Klipsch Info
Posted
I am running a pr of RB-600 bookshelf speakers and a SW-110 Sub from a Luxman R-115 reciever (it has separate Pre out)
All working great. But now I would like to change to an older Yamaha Int. Amp that does not have a
Sub out. It does have Pre out and Main in but with the little solid jumpers. I'd like to keep my Sub wireless if possible.
Any suggestions.
Thanks
