Paducah Home Theater

It's my understanding that most are going into showrooms, not necessarily homes for personal use. But that may be incorrect.

How fast are they? Like 200 mph?

While I'm sure the seller greatly appreciates your friend's business, he forgot to ask for permission to "borrow" the seller's pictures of the products and his showroom. I hear that the seller has had several weird comments and questions and alerts about this ad since it's, like, you know, copyright issues and stuff. I'm sure that the seller would have preferred that your friend take the initiative to unbox them and use his own pictures at his own place if he is going to demand such a high markup over what he paid for them, then put said pictures in an environment that has such a high exposure, shown to people who largely know good and well where the pictures came from.

On most recordings it's about as difficult as picking out which song was recorded by Celine Dion on a CD that is otherwise full of Slipknot songs.

see if this works.

That's actually not even the normal distressed oak. Notice the huge knots, that's not on the other speakers. It's more rustic than the typical finish. Totally different supplier and costs more. Would be cool if this was on the other speakers, or some custom Cornwalls, but whether you get a big knot in a cool spot is probably hit or miss. But yes there is actually two different versions of distressed oak available.

Literally your entire thread was in regards to trying to buy speakers that were in an ad of mine. Don't act like I'm twisting and doing shady stuff. I'm just answering questions that you and others asked. You're just zero'ing in on one line that was a lame attempt at humor. I don't really want to sell the demo ones. They are set up in my showroom and look great in there, and if I sell these at a discount I'd just end up buying more new ones and barely break even which doesn't make much sense. I was obviously hoping that somebody would just order new ones if they want them but these are available. I have literally turned down a $7,500 offer in the past when I first got them.

mmmmm hmmmm.

You guys should see the other distressed stuff I've been doing.

LOL, I'm just happy that my ads are getting other dealers some sales. SMH. Yes that would be me who has them. They are not going to be part of the regular lineup. Those were personally owned by Klipsch CEO Paul Jacobs, are flawless, have an actual serial number, and have brand new grills. I don't really want to give them away for cheap considering they're the only ones that exist and I don't really want to custom order new ones right now if they're just going to sit there. They had trouble with the grills at first, the early lambswool were not very uniform plus they have to be stretched pretty good and due to the width of the Cornwall grills it wasn't the best combination. The new fabric is better but they still need to stay on the speakers or they will warp. I can easily order them.

Cary SLI-80 HS works very well with Cornwall 4. Klipsch even used them in their marketing materials. Klipsch even had a hand in voicing them. Klipsch even makes the matching side panels. Easy choice.

They are my favorite outside, mainly because most other speakers can't pull it off at all so these just sound so much superior to most everything else in that environment that I'm not sure how you can't like it. They work fine inside as well of course. Only thing I've ran across that may be specific to room size is that I heard some songs in the lab that sounded a little bloated. Gillian Welch for example. Miss Ohio doesn't exactly have a ton of low bass and probably shouldn't sound like it does. I have always assumed it was due to cabin gain. May have just been some weird room modes, IDK.

Jubilees.

It's a $1,000 premium so like $5995. apparently the pictures are broken? I can't see them anymore.

Parasound works great. Sold many A23+ to go with these. The metal heads that are half deaf really enjoy the A21+. However, that's not necessary for most people. The impedance dip at the tuning frequency on rf-7's is the biggest issue with amps, some don't like that too much at higher volume.

1. Local piano mover is the only way to fly. They are trained, in shape, have the proper equipment, and have proper insurance. We even reimburse this expense up to $500. Your typical freight company who offers white glove can’t do it. Dealers aren’t typically going to send an army of four people to move them unless the installation is very easy. Liability and risk of moving these things where stairs or other obstacles are involved is just too high. Letting us pay you to hire a local piano mover is the best solution. 2. last I checked they are still making 75th on demand. They did not fill up all the allocated spots. That may have changed very recently but I doubt it. Most of my guys are on a budget and the special editions are harder to move or else I would have stocked some. I do have the walnuts in stock. Zero wait. But I think I can still get some 75th.

Only a few pair ever made.

We don't have to have the same market penetration. All we need to do is know how to attract the cool kids.

Totally free event. Open house at PHT. October 22, this Saturday, 420 North 7th Street, Paducah KY. Live music from 12-6 including Leight July, world champion thumb picker Alonzo Pennington, and J.D. Wilkes of the Legendary Shack Shakers. At least one pair of Jubilees will be up and going, trying to have a second pair outside for the live music. Every Heritage speaker plus most major Reference Premier speakers on demo. Like all day. Pre-game and post-game shenanigans, the cool kids are coming Friday night. Meet at least a few of the Klipsch insiders including legendary reps Mike Dyer and Mark Hittle. Possibly product manager Chad Charleston. Roy was going to come but something came up. Several of the Facebook regulars are coming. Myself, Steven, several people flying in. more info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/6235571816472342/

Could very well be. I tried to do this with RF-7II's and quickly realized that this horn firing directly into your ear from 2' away was just not fun whatsoever. I highly prefer the RP-502S on the sides if your outside seats are near the speakers. Doing this is actually the most correct for an Atmos system but some speakers are ok with listening near field like that. Personally I love Klipsch and all but I ain't firing a horn from a Klipsch tower directly into my ear at a 90 degree angle from 2' away, you couldn't pay me enough. Just depends on how much room you have. We did put a 7 channel 8000F system in a guy's house but his room was literally 50' wide. That's different.

I have had very good luck with the Cyrus Stereo 200. Plus it's half width so there's less clutter. There are no gain knobs to jack up either. You can have two Stereo 200's, a preamp, and a streamer, in literally a 4U space which is the size of a typical receiver. Their Pre-XR is very nice, specifically made to be ultra low noise. Retails for $5,500 is the only bad part. That's what I use tho. They are made in England too, which some people appreciate. In my setup even with a cheaper streamer, if you hit the pause button, I literally have to stick my head in the 402 horn with my face up against that driver to hear anything at all, and I have pretty sensitive ears. Just dead flat silent realistically speaking.

In this case it's a pretty small increase. Two chassis, two power supplies, two wires, two boxes, two shipping bills, pretty easily explainable. HOWEVER, since we are digging up old threads, I gotta say, please do NOT buy a HINT6 and use it on K-horns. The biggest difference is that the HINT6 does NOT have a gain knob, while the A23+ does. If you hear a noise floor, which you will, there is no way to turn it down. Otherwise I think the HINT6 is a great unit but the lack of a gain knob makes it a no go for K-horns. Just don't do it.

I did mention removable. Plus they would be on the back where it’s painted. All it would take is a few tapped threads for machine screws. Once it is in place you could unscrew the screws, remove the handles, reinstall the screws, and there would only be a few screw heads showing the back corner. I counted 22 screw heads on the back panel of the prototype, not sure what a few extra would hurt. But none of this matters because it’s not going to happen.
