LS were intended to be a Stadium speaker, not a HiFi utilization
Big breath….again….Mr K never understood the difference between home speakers and commercial. He told me that it should not matter what you have hooked up to the speaker….a turntable or a band….the speaker should faithfully reproduce the input signal.

Just to make it clear, keep this on topic. I was very fond of mr Bob. This misconception that Crites, the business and mr Bob are one in the same is not true anymore. Thanks.

Has anyone ever heard of intermod distortion?

the reality for 2023 are high energy + high interest rates + high labor costs + shortages in the supply chain + staff shortages + regular price increases for materials + high R&D costs , based on the uncertainty , the R&D costs will most likely be even higher in 2024 .
R&D costs higher in 2024? Maybe my guys and I will get a raise in 2024!!!

I had those subs behind my MWMs running the LFE channel in 2007. Glad to see Klipsch finally offering HORN LOADED subs to the other out there. Something I did over 13 years ago.
It it wasn’t for you Claude I don’t know where Klipsch would be…..amazing.

So that's a NO on having the ability to daisy chain the subs straight from the factory if someone wanted to line array them CB?
It can be done.

Here is a link to the featured Reference Track for the SubFest Bonehead Class.
Roy was in a quandary, he couldn’t find anything music wise that had a true fundamental in the 15 to 16hZ range. What to do?
You call your resident Renaissance Man if you are lucky enough to have one, and KGI/PAC does in fact have one, Matt Sommers.
Link to the two cuts which Matt collectively named “Deep Roy” with a description of the musical keys, and lowest fundamental frequency.
Enjoy on your favorite system/headphones.
If you are wondering why Matt has such a long silent intro on track 2 . . . well I will let those who were there explain it and what the intro does to the listening room couch.
Enjoy, courtesy of a true Renaissance Man (in the highest Quattro cento sense of that moniker)
Below I have listed the rest of the songs I played for subfest
Bonnie Raitt. Good man, good woman
bela fleck and the flecktones. Flight of the cosmic hippo
bass mekanik. Bring the bass back
the refused. Bruitist pome #5
Tool. Invincible
roger waters. Amused to death
stevie ray vaughan. Little wing
yello. Umbria
boz scaggs. Thanks to you.
and Matt’s two songs that Travis listed.

John , the sub you're showing is not the Large sub for the Lascala /khorn ,
the Large sub has 3 braces per side , and it's wider and almost as high as a khorn
That is the large randy.

what's the teaser item
That’s why it’s called a teaser. Hopefully another bonehead class on this teaser and what it means to Klipsch heritage.

Yeah, and where are the plans and recommendations for modifications and DIY builds?
None

If you don’t like or get that we will NOT support supposedly “upgrades” from unapproved third parties, then that’s your problem. Take it to their websites or others. Not here. I’ve cleaned this up. I have very little tolerance for this. I know Mr K did as well….:

+1 on the MiniDSP. I’ve had a 2x4HD and a Flex Eight. Both have been very good.
Crossover won’t do it….it’s called IM distortion

All of these Direct Radiating Subwoofers are more alike than they are different... some are better built than others, some have more output than others, some have more features than others... but at the end of the day, they are similar.
I ran an OLD sw115 with La Scala II's for years with great success... the trick is blending them correctly and not allowing the subwoofer to over power that sub 40Hz region of the frequency band.
If you've chosen to go with a direct radiating subwoofer over a horn loaded subwoofer, then it really doesn't matter that much imho... choose your features, choose your output and choose your price point and with some finesse, I am sure you'll be a happy camper... UNTIL SOMETHING BETTER COMES ALONG, hint.
It’s coming….

Hi All,
I purchased a pair of Chorus IIs that came with the Crites XO. The previous owner, sadly, can't find the original XO and so I wanted to make my own.
I know that Klipsch likes to use the autoformer for the inductor, especially for the bass. I was wondering if I can just use air coil inductors of the same value instead?
I am not a big fan of the Sonicap Gen I or II caps as I think they are too detailed and not a good fit for the Chorus.
So, is it okay to use the regular air coil inductors?
Thanks@Deang dean could probably make these for you.

Why ??
To let the phase cues, amplitude cues mix and present the total soundstage as it was recorded.

I am changing my listening room and want to place my equipment on sidewall, not between speakers. The room is 5.7 meter wide and 6.6 meter deep.
why do we always place it middle.
I know speaker cables would be shorter, but if they are 6 feet longer does it really matter?
I am using Cornwall 4 and Cary 80HS
the reason i can’t test is because my stuff is in storage while remodelling.
please tell me it will be okey. I am keen for different layout in my room.
Thanks for great forum.
Actually that the way I have the lab setup. Ideally there should nothing between the speakers.
