Day 2 here the forum and the new guy bought a pair of P38 in natural.

Tagged for later info.

Lots of great info here... and it is day one (for me) on this site. Thanks to everybody.

Hey MG. My current system is Marantz MM 7025 power amp (140 WPC @ 8), Marantz AV7702 MKI pre / pro and Oppo 105D, dedicated to audio only. Speakers are B&W 683 S2 and ASW608 sub in corner of room. All cables are Audioquest mid level stuff, for whatever that is worth. I have seen many discussions on forums about the worth of upgrading cables. Decided to put some effort into it but didn't go full idiot about it. Don't get me wrong, it does not sound like crap or anything. I am able to afford an upgrade and REALLY miss the expansive warm sound of the old setup. We listen to hard rock, classic rock, with some classical thrown in there. Wife likes a little country every now and then... yes dear. Have been recently getting into some SACD stuff since I got the Oppo a couple months ago. Now sometimes listening to some mellow rock when I feel like "critical" listening (Steely Dan / Pink Floyd, Rush, Donald Fagen, etc). My "old" system was the KG 5.5 with Adcom GFA 5500 and Adcom pre / tuner and various mainstream CD players over the years. Room is fairly small 14' X 22" with one walkthrough to adjoining hallway in rear and walkthrough to breakfast nook (and subsequently kitchen) on the side near the front of the room. Also consideration is high WAF factor

Hey Ceptor. Located in Savannah, GA. On a different audio forum a member with a pair of 39s has made open offers (not specifically to myself), for people to stop by and take a listen. He feels that they are very good speakers and sounds like he has or has had some other nice speakers to compare them to in his own house / same listening environment. It is a little far from me, but who knows, I might contact him and take a trip up there. Bad thing is that the sale ends in approximately 2 weeks and I would not be able to make it up there before then. A1UC, I checked out Sound Distributors. Their pricing seems similar to Klipsch directly. Certainly worth a shot to give them a call when I am ready to buy next week.

Newbie here. My beloved KG 5.5 gave out on me a few years ago and were unfortunately replaced with a pair that I now just am not happy with. I have seen a few threads on various forums about the Palladiums. I have become very interested in these. Just saw that they are on sale and it is driving me crazy. I could not afford the P39s but could easily afford the P37s. With a little reshuffling of a different hobby, I could get the P38s. Unfortunately I could not audition these before I would buy them. But I am certain I would not be disappointed, more likely will be very impressed I think. Do you guys think the price increase between the 37 to the 38 is worth it? Room is not very big, music 100% (no HT on stereo). LOVED the big clear warm sound of my old KG 5.5.
