  1. Just read through this thread and really appreciate the knowledge and experience that is being shared regarding tube gear. Has anyone compared the Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum III to the Primaluna EVO 400? Any direct experience? I have a CMIII but all of the hype surrounding the Primaluna EVO 400 has me curious as to the potential differences between them.

    1976  Khorns ,  wood cabinets ,  k-33 woofer square magnet ,  K-77 tweeter Alnico , K-55V Alnico midrange ,k-400 metal horn ,  AA network , PWK pie Badges or Copper laser klipsch badges  would be rarer   , pictures could tell us more as to the Khorn Type .

     

    Are the badges on these the Copper laser badges you mentioned?

  3. Here are some pics of my new to me Khorns that I was looking for date information on. Thank you for helping me identify them. :)

     

    I acquired these locally a few days ago. The seller also included new pairs of Klipsch woofers, tweeters and crossovers, which he bought from Klipsch a while ago. My understanding is that he purchased these parts from Klipsch because he thought with the speakers being so old the internals needed replaced. Once he replaced everything with the new internals, he couldn't hear a difference between the originals and the new, so he put the originals back in. 

     

    I'm currently renovating our detached garage and making it into a mancave which is where these Khorns will reside. They work and sound good to me. Any thoughts on the need for additional upgrades beyond what the original owner attempted to do?

    Aaron, I have a deal you may be inclined to ponder.  If you will come to Plant City in a few weeks, you can take my Quicksilver KT88 monoblocks and Quicksilver line stage preamp.  Try these out for a month or so and if they appeal to you, they will be a bit less than your budget.  If not, bring them back and try something else.

    I have had this gear for 20 years and have paired this setup with dozens of speakers from Magnepans to Klipshorns.  I am not actively selling but I know you and these no longer get much use.  I use vintage McIntosh for the Klipshorns and a Heresy in 3 channel stereo (magical) and use a Powernode with my Zu speakers.  I think I am going to settle on these two systems for a while.  That leaves a lot of electron manipulators I have managed to accumulate over the years lying around unused.

    If you don't mind sharing, what vintage McIntosh are you using?
