  1. Hi, This is what I do with my Cornwall III, SS below MC2125 on K33 and Cary SLi50 valves on Horns: I love it. Tell us if the test is successful with you
  2. Here in Europe, the battle is even finer because the Cornwall IV cost € 7,990 a pair* and the Tannoy Arden Legacy € 7,800. It's only 190 € apart or only about $ 230 for the pair, it's really thin 😜 * When I think I bought my pair of Cornwall III 3000 € per pair, delivered home on a pallet, in 2016 the increase is amazing
  3. I hear this in 1997 in Alsace France, it was very beautiful and majestic. But my listening is old so I can't say more.
  4. Hi, It also exists for large speakers, here at JBL on a speaker of the same size as the Cornwall. Strangely, you never see this beautiful montage on Cornwall (or I haven't found it, apart from the traditional 2 "Klipsch rise), you know why?
  5. Hello ! @Woofers and Tweeters I'm French, so sometimes I don't understand everything in English! Looks to me like you want to know when Pink Floyd left the PL 700 for SAEs: here's is a nice story of Pink Floyd's Live Sound, so far I've read about PL700 and BSS amplifier, but nothing about SAE : maybe I skipped a line ??? 😜 Note: he talks about lots of nice equipment: Midas, microphones from Shure, Altec, Gauss, ... But, but, but there are P500s to amplify 15", 12" & Tad 2001: P500 are not the SAEs you are looking for? In 1984, during the band’s inactive period, Britannia Row Productions became an independent company, purchased from Pink Floyd by Robbie Williams and Bryan Grant. For this tour, Brit Row merged their own facilities with those of their close associates, American-based Maryland Sound Inc. (MSI) whose proprietary PA stock formed the core of the touring system. This featured quantities of 4 x 15-inch low packs, 4 x 12-inch high packs and a TAD 2001 high end driver, all powered by P500 amplification. https://soundgirls.org/welcome-to-the-machine-the-story-of-pink-floyds-live-sound/ Other version https://pfco.neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk/band/interviews/art-rev/art-sos4.html
  6. What are you looking for ? http://jerobison.blogspot.com/2008/02/pink-floyd-sound-circa-1979.html I had a superb Audio Research D100A Solid State which worked extremely well, the sound was wonderful. But unfortunately he made me smoke beautiful Leedh Ether speakers: GRRrrrrrrrrr! I put it away and sold it for parts. LEEDH Ether 1983
  7. One thing that I really like about the Tannoys is that there are adjustment pads, it's better than rotary Lpad Exemple sur Arden Legacy
  8. The sqwaker & treble driver and horn is in center of bass speaker >>> Tannoy = 2 voices, Klipsch Heritage = 3 voices
  9. The Tannoys have the reputation of being a little dark and the highs are a little listened to, they are sometimes a little soft and not too dynamic, some find that the junction between the bass cone and the midrange horn is sometimes dug. They are soft and immerse you in the middle of the music, their coaxial speakers are a fantastic source point. The Klipsch they are direct, the sound is often uncompromising with a powerful medium, the bass is light. And depending on the models, they are criticized for being a little short at the bottom (Heresy, La Scala). With a dynamic close to live sound, the Klipsch propels you into the heart of the music, the bass is punchy and articulate, the mids are deep and the treble goes high. Be careful, these are a little caricatural outlines, some listeners will prefer one, others the other or both. The art will be to make a happy marriage with electronics. I heard big Tannoy monitors with 2x15" and 500 liters of loads of the Gold Monitor series in a mixing studio in Paris: the sound was fantastic. 😎
  10. Hi @Klipschguy I have a MC 2125: there has been a very very slight buzzing in the speaker woofers for 15 years, but it has not changed: so I am monitoring. However, I have no noise from the MC2125 amplifier itself, no noise or hum in the shelf. You can check if no screw or nut is loosened on your transformer itself or at its fixing on the frame.
  11. I would have answered, Welcome to the Klipsch forum, We are here a forum of enthusiasts (sometimes a little gruff πŸ˜‹), we will do our best to make this moment here pleasant for you and we will help you. Regarding your connection problem tell us what is wrong and also tell us what you do not understand on the diagram posted by Micromara. See you soon ! πŸ˜€
  12. More seriously, rather than riding bikes on it 😁 it is better to taste olive oil in Mediterranean cuisine: Italy, South of France, Spain, Greece, Lebanon, Tunisia, Morocco, ... and all the others ! It's a delight πŸ˜‹ https://www.google.com/search?q=cuisine+mΓ©diterranΓ©enne&sxsrf=ALeKk02X1aXkDA_Ciuntz9qEFsu7WJgPtA:1606411644372&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjO1rPb3aDtAhUUnBQKHd7sAQs4ChD8BSgBegQIBRAD&biw=1366&bih=625 https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisine_grecque Making speakers is also cooking, and here I would say that the American cooks are very good, especially in Hope 😎
  13. Hi @JBCODD Everything is right in what you say, but if you want really high-end speaker, use AOP (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) olive oil from my region 😎 https://www.aoc-lesbauxdeprovence.com/le-terroir/la-vallee-des-baux-de-provence.htm Van Gogh himself loved them so much, when he was in Saint-Remy-de-Provence
  14. πŸ˜€Nickel for straps / cables Yes unboxing day is a great day 😜
  15. Hi @salbake I see this very late and I do not know if you have already been informed, but you have to remove the straps with your Cardas dual wiring. Your installation and your CW1 and CW 4 are 😍
  16. On the Beyma Spain site it is marked discontinued, but there is certainly some stock left at the importers and sellers. This tweeter is a copy of the 2404H from JBL https://www.beyma.com/en/products/c/compression-tweeter/1TWCP258/twt-cp-25-8-oh/ The specs of D120 of B&C > DE120 8ohm πŸ™‚
  17. Yes, @jjptkd https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/profile/58550-jjptkd/
  18. A little reading to move your project forward & Yes it's a good idea to contact Eminence to get their opinion πŸ™‚ ✌️
  19. Kappa pro 15 LFC could be a great candidate, look at the T&S settings to see if it is right for you https://www.eminence.com/speakers/speaker-detail/?model=Kappa_Pro_15LFC
  20. Here is a proposal either for repair with shipment or replacement with Kappa 15C https://reconingspeakers.com/product/klipsch-121534-chorus-ii-woofer/
  21. Hi VinylManiac πŸ€ͺ And here is a set of Virgin Prunes, it's a complete original with all the inserts that I bought in 1982, I am the first owner. The records are 25cm (10 ") 33 rpm, the record company is" L'invitation au Suicide " Le Havre, France. The Virgin Prunes are childhood friends of U2, they lived on the same street, the guitarist of the Prunes is the brother of The Edge. Gavin Friday, is a very famous singer in Ireland, he sang with the Corrs, he also wrote music for films that you know: Impossible Mission , Moulin Rouge, In the Name Of The Father, Short Cuts, In America, ... https://www.discogs.com/fr/Virgin-Prunes-Heresie/release/9305023 HERESYIE but not the Klipsch πŸ™ƒ
  22. How does the CWIII sound, the bass is good? If so there is no reason that the bass of the CWIVs should not be as good over time.
