Thank You all. I'll have to work on this today.

Thank you both. I'm hoping to find some in good shape. I would prefer original cabinets but I wound't mind if the 'guts' have been upgraded. What do you guys think about my asking for trade? Would my two pair be about ~ to one or no? I know that's somewhat subjective.

Thanks any suggestions on the crossover or anything else or is it just take as you can get?

Hello, I would like to find a pair of La Scala speakers. I remember reading some advice but I don't remember where it was. What type of crossover AA, I think I remember? Any other advice? I would prefer stained wood to black paint. I'm going post a trade/swap in the garage but I'll check here. I have a pair of Chorus speakers and a pair of Forte II's that I want to trade. both are in good condition except on one chorus one of the terminals is damaged. It's usable but not nicely without fixing. Let me know any thoughts or advice. Thanks I'm in Texas, the DFW area. So let me know if you or someone is trying to sell a pair of La Scala's

I bought these but I'm a bit confused. Do they actually have 5-6 channels in or are they duplicating channels. They only have one rca connector per channel not the normal pos-neg/right-left. I read a that digital rca can handle 5.1 channels. Are these digital rca inputs, I don't know how old that tech is? I bought some y connectors (still shipping); will those work to go from R/L to the single?

Thanks Carlooch, I'm a little nervous about the amp. It's pro-audio stuffs and I've got to search for a manual. I'm not even sure what the switches are for! but looking forward to figuring it out (aka playing ) Here is a link to the AB International product archive page and a link to the PDF for the 6300A. product archive page http://www.abamps.com/productarchive.html#6300a 6300A manual pdf link http://www.abamps.com/pdfs/6300a.pdf Wow Thanks FDJ. Awesome!

Final tally, Thanks Guys.... I had answers on Two forums threads! The most powerful amp I've ever seen! (I know there are more powerful but none that I've really ever looked @)Thanks directly to DJK here https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/161581-best-old-school-multimedia-amp/?p=1971649 AB International (holly cow) http://www.ebay.com/itm/252061519421?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Preamp/Processor.

I went over budget! but I got the anthem D1 preamp. I think I did well. I got it for 725 + 48 for shipping. Over what I wanted to spend..but..nice..I think http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anthem-Statement-D1-preamp-Processor-with-all-accessories-in-Mint-condition-/331759126250?hash=item4d3e6286ea:g:AS8AAOSwNyFWcEId&autorefresh=true Thanks Everyone!

Well I've made a low ball offer on the Anthem..if it's too high I may get the Krell... keep'm coming..Thanks!

I'm looking @ older stuff right now. found some with the xlr connections that would work with the amp. Right now... I see a Krell showcase vs. Anthem D1.. any preferences? I'll look @ Marnantz but ..I'm way under 10K try under 1k

bump

Thank U derrickdj1! but I was asking about preamps/processor. I have the amp covered now! I've Seen B&K and Krell (older Showcase but still not cheap).

Bump More please

Thank You for all the reply's. I did pull the trigger on the AB International. I have discovered that some preamps have the XLR connections but they do seem to be higher end (if I can just find the right price ). I'm on to the preamp/processor and would love more responses on that. I don't mind if they are here or in a new post I created but I imagen the mods would prefer the new one . Eitherway! please keep'm coming! Thanks Guys/Gals!!! https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/161589-best-preampdecoder/

Wow... that would be perfect! I'm a linux/unix guy but I'm not familiar how to do that. I use my media center to play music files... flac, mp3, or ogg. Any idea what sound card he's using!

So I'm guess there's an adapter or I'll have take it to a shop and change out for rca? I'm still looking for the preamp but I don't think it will have those

Hello, I started with the post here https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/161581-best-old-school-multimedia-amp/ and I did so well ( I believe ) that I thought I'd ask for advice on the last of it! Preamp/processor Have pair of Chorus and Forte II's and bout a massively powered 6 channel amp (see above) AB International. Can you guys/gals help me finish it off! Thank You for any suggestions!

Well, I bought the AB International! Thank U DJK now if someone could tell me how to hook it up . Also on to preamps/decoders. Please ..more info the better!

Any opinion on DJK AB International? Or Adcom 7700, 7605, 7500

I got to say that's tempting. Is the sound quality there? Looks like it's built like a tank! I've got no idea what those connections are though

I use a media center. I'm a computer geek so I don't need anything special.

Wow...didn't know they could have that much power...(bottom link)

As low as possible but I'm in no real hurry so... probably up to 1k for now but that's more amp than I need. would be nice if I could get everything for that (i.e. preamp/decoder)
