very skinny people live there ! judging by door size

I use the PL Dialogue HP with my K-horns. Excellent combination. beats the MC275 in my setup. .

Botched...

I had Chorus II, and sold them. I much prefer the CW III's. For your space you'd love it.

Any benefit going from the RB-61 II's to The RP-600M's ? This may have been discussed here but I can't find the topic. Used in a 2 channel stereo setup. Ty

I received them today. Thanks Cornman, excellent packing . The UPS guy was ticked, b/c they came in FedEx boxes, with a UPS labels !!l. He said they never utter the "F" word at UPS,...🤣 I should receive the matching pre-amp from Dennis Had tomorrow, so I'll wait to set them up. I love the sound of the EL34, I was thinking of a matched quad of G/L KT-77' ?. They will be driving the K-horns. Opinions on the tubes ?

They have babied with lots of TLC.

I am selling my Forte II's. All original parts, Excellent condition. They sound amazing. I had them replaced with K-horns. Local pick up in Lubbock Texas. Price 695 dollars for the pair.

For sale my McIntosh MC 275 MK VI, in mint shape. Low hours. works beautifully, Mint shape function & Looks. Sounds amazing. It has a small tiny nick on the back cover that really u can barely see even up close. I have all the accessories and the original box. Tubes: Tung-sol reissue 6550 matched quad. Mullard vintage 12at7 matched quad. Gold lion reissue 12ax7 matched pair. Price 3950 shipped to continental USA. Please ask any question. Selling as I changed to a smaller SET amplifier for my K-Horns.

before I DECIDED TO GET THOSE AMPS, I REACHED OUT TO Dennis, as I was contemplating his 300b amp. he absolutely recommended those amps over the 300 b. I quote his answer to me: " Paul: In regards to the Inspire mono-blocs ... I gotta tell ya this is such an unusual situation .... I just built those mono's a couple of weeks ago. The fellow is doing a bi-amp system that is not working for him. The amplifiers are some of the best I have done in over 62 years of slingin solder!!!!!!! I had these monos in my home system for a few nights. I hated to shop them!!!! LOL The mono's are absolutely the choice. You may use any of the tubes as would with the stereo Fire-Bottle you have. I will tell ya ... get a quad set of the SovTec 5881 output tubes .... amazing sound. These are also the same as the Russian 6n3cE tubes you will see advertised on eBay. Killer sound ... also you wanna get crazy .... my favorite .... 6F6 or 6F6G's. You will have an absolute blast with the mono's ..... best of the Inspire Fire-Bottle for sure" end quote

SOLD. I could not resist those babies. I will mate them with Dennis Had pre amplifier LP 3.1 and my K-horn's. Ty Cornman.

I use my RF-7 III's without a sub. I find the bass more then enough, but that's my preference. Your taste may require more, so add a sub or 2 and compare. let us know pls.

So what was not right ? I am asking b/c I recently acquired an inspire tube amp from Dennis, and it works beautifully with any set of speakers I tried it with. Klipschorns, la scalla II's, cornwalls III's and H-3's. With my amp, I rolled tubes and on all sounded good.

What set of speakers did you use with them ?

Tube amp.

I look forward for my ideal retirement, that would be working only 40 hours/week.

try the Music Paradise MP701tube pre amp. Nice and well worth it's price.

I did not want a set of big black boxes in my room, so I ordered them in cherry,...They are absolutely gorgeous. they blend with the room, despite their massive size. Now the sound they produce, is nothing but captivating and beautifully strong, and complete. I don't use a sub with them, they don't need one IMHO. Have fun choosing the finish and no matter what you'd pick, YOU WILL enjoy the sound.

So sorry for your loss. Deepest sympathy to you Jason and to your family.

I got the last one. Dennis is such a nice guy to deal with.

I finished the setup of the new K-horns, and all connected, using as a first try my Prima Luna Dialogue HP I/A. I fired the system up, let it warm up for 30 min, in triode mode, and started playing Chris Stapleton, Whiskey and you.... When I first heard the music, (my first ever with Klipschorns, (aka klipschorns virgin), MY HEART SKIPPED FOR FEW SECONDS,... OMG.....I was speechless,... wow...wow, was all I could say. I was not prepared for that. I own LS II's, CW III's, Heresy's III, Forte II's & III's, and have owned Chorus II,..and still I could not get over the sound,... I sat down and listened to all genres of music for 2 straight hours, they went by fast, much needed r/r after a long weekend at work. Who cares about Superbowl !. For now I am keeping the P/L in the system. Next the MA5300 in a week or two.

Ty all for your inputs. I think I am going to start with the Cary setup, when I get to it. For now, I am excited to have unboxed the K-horns. Not Setup or moved to place yet. I attached few pictures. Those babies are huge, heavy, and Gorgeous in person.

I Got me a brand new pair of CW III Rosewood SE for much less than his asking price. Gorgeous btw.

Cornwall III, and don't look back or second guess yourself. Just got my Cornwall III SE in Rosewood. Besides the amazing sound, the look is Gorgeous.
