    Many thanks. Do you know how I can get more detail about these? I have them paired with a Marantz 2245. The right channel started popping. I thought it was the speaker, but it does it with headphones as well. I'm going to have to take the receiver in to get serviced, in the meantime I'm looking for a stand in receiver to hold me over. The repair shop is 5mos out. Any suggestions 

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It sounds like your receiver needs to have the potentiometers deoxed (volume, balance, bass, treble, and midrange knobs). What other information are you looking for?

    I can't see how anyone could just flat out say Pauls videos are wrong. 99% of this hobby is subjective and Paul is sharing his opinion. I agree with most of what he says, personally. 

    I agree with this. I think a lot of people disregard him because of his beliefs in cables mattering

  3. It's tough to set a price. La Scalas if that era are worth typically $1500-3000 depending on condition. The rosewood veneer is a nice touch of custom. If it was done well, it can definitely add value. Rosewood is definitely a nice and classy way to go. But someone could argue that not original can take away from the value like a aftermarket customizations on a car or motorcycle. Are these from the father/son team that customize Klipsch speakers? Their prices tend to be a couple of grand over stock value prices normally.

  4. Just curious if anyone hear has much experience with some PS Audio gear with Klipsch speakers.  I was told from a dealer that the PS Audio preamp and amp combos are very detailed with comes across as overly bright with Klipsch speakers.  Their BHK product lines look very nice and their Stellar phono preamp has very good reviews, especially over Parasound which is a brand I like a lot.  The biggest products I find intriguing is their Power Regenerators.  I watch a lot of the videos on PS Audio's YouTube channel and I have learned a lot of information about audio gear.  Obviously they are going to push their own products in that type of marketing.  Anyone hear using any Power Regenerators?  Is it worth it for mid-level systems, or only really benefitial for extremly higher end systems?  I am currently running a Parasound P6 preamp with a Parasound A23 amp.  I am just using the built-in phono preamp on the Parasound P6 for now, I have never tried an external phono preamp.  Thanks for any help.

    Interested in a modern MCM.........same top end as Jubs, but MWM bass cabinets?

    unfortunately no, because I don't have the space for 2 MWM bass bins.  If i could come across a pair of Jubes, I would be rearranging my basement to have a place for them.

  6. More than likely the tweeter died rather than the crossover. Carefully swap the tweeters from the speakers and listen to them. If the problem followed the tweeter, the tweeter is bad. If the problem stayed in the speaker, the the crossover has an issue. If it's the crossover, recapping should fix the issue. If it's the tweeter, I'd recommend buying a pair of titanium tweeter diaphragms from Crites Speakers and replacing both tweeter diaphragms. This should result in better sound quality.
