LoL Ya it's got my TV on top if it but don't worry it's got rubber mats so no damage. I have a feeling that La Scala (both of them)will be with me forever. Still the most beautiful pair I've ever seen. Hey did you ever end up picking up those K-horns you were telling me about? If so, what are your thoughts?
i did pick them up.... along with several other vintage speakers and equipment along the way. the reno isnt finished yet, 2 more weeks.... which puts me in daytona for bike week pretty much so it will be a lil bit before i get them hooked up still. : ( i will let you know when i hook everything up i will send pics too.
in the mean time check this setup out.... i found this CL add in one of my searches.... i wonder if he'd take 35k for it???....doubt it tho!!! https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/ele/5926093997.html

Hmmm, they probably lost a recent bet on the football game…
lol... they should put that in a commercial for anti gambling, ....

no pics yet... they still on the trailer sealed up tight for the night. travelled 2 hours to get em, then mini blizzard hit... white knuckle 4.5 hour return trip, plows hadn't plowed. i think i hit a top speed of 40 at one point tho!!! so, unload in the morning, then work. yes! work on Sunday.... uhhg!. i'll post pics when i do get em in the house, but can't set em up yet we have a major Reno starting anytime now... set up will have to wait. I bought his pre and amps he was using while i was there, he auditioned them and my jaw hit floor.... so, turns out he is some audio engineer and built off of 'Borbely's' plans... i guess he was the one from Hafler and OMG!!! are these things sweet!! 2 mono mosfet power amps with all the build sheets etc.... and the pre amp with build sheets etc.... I can't wait to set this stuff up!!!
Found some stuff on Borbely http://www.audioxpress.com/assets/upload/files/The Borbely AnnalsAX012_019.pdf So, the pre and both mono mosfets are his build kits from Borbely... they are amazing sounding from when he demo'd them for me when I went to pick them up. He is in his 80's so I didn't think it appropriate for me to ask him if I could put on some Pink Floyd to see how the setup handled a few more watts, but he did put on Pachelbel and that sounded great especially with his vaulted ceilings! The demo crew showed up yesterday to start the renovations.... 4 weeks before I can get them setup according to the contractor... because of the new floors etc we have going in. But can't wait!!!

To seal it to the wall just use pipe foam insulation. If on smooth floor try some Grippers on the bottom of the speakers. There are 100s of posts on enclosing the backs. You got pic of yours??
Good news... they came with the backing i am talking about already on them!!! Thank you!

He gave me lots of stuff from PWK also... 'Audio Papers' in a binder contains stuff like 'Symposium on Auditory Perspective', and all kinds of stuff. If anyone wants to see some of this stuff lmk... i can post pics of the papers he used etc.... i just read through a bunch and my head is hurting... but in a good way. lol .

Has anyone tried to enclose the back on their vintage K-horns like Klipsch has done with the new 70 anniv. edition K-horns???
.... also in a related subject, where can I get the 'rubber tubing' looking stuff that i see on some K-horns to 'seal' them into the corner of the room?
Thanks all.

I called Klipsch the guy told me what I thought, they are 87's but the previous owner must have replaced the crossover's because as it said in the heritage code document they didn't start using the AL-3 crossover until 89.
3. Crossover types (Heritage only, there are others pre-1964):
- A - Klipschorn, Belle, La Scala
- B - Cornwall
- C - Early Heresy
- E - Heresy (E2 for 1983-1984 Heresy-Is with K-24 & K53/701's)
- AA - Klipschorn, Belle, (and early to late 70's La Scala)
- AB - Belle
- AL - La Scala
- AK- Klipschorn (latest is AK-5)
- K series (K1000 early Cornwall's, K500/K5000 early Klipschorn's)
- 1RC - La Scala & Klipschorn (later re-designated Type-A in October 1966)
Klipschorns Excellent Condition Crites upgrades
