Honestly, I've thought about doing the same so I wouldn't need the 5 db of PEQ and hopefully end up with something more attractive.

I use a Sherwood S-6040CP (dual mono 100 WPC) and it does just fine. I even have 5 db of PEQ at 36hz boosting the bass.

I've got some feet on mine.

I'm probably going to still go for it, DIY plans for the bass bin are available and the K-402, drivers and crossover schematics are all still out there and available. Looks like a tough build though, I've never built anything more than boxes.

I asked, it was confirmed that they're gone and I was told Klipsch is in the process of removing it from the website.

Well, that unfortunate then.

As long as the 3-way version stays available, I'm fine. I could easily find a use for those extra K-510 horns with K-69 drivers.

I would swap out the mylar caps in the crossover for film caps in addition to replacing the tweeter diaphragms. After that you should be good to go.

I don't know if the quote is up to date, It was $10,295 for two of the KPT-JUBILEE/535-B two half years ago from American Cinema. This was when I bought my pair of KPT-904-Ms.

Ok good. I finally have a space big enough and I was saving up the $10k I'll need but there's no chance I could ever save $35k, that's just out of reach.

So we can't buy the cinema Jubilee at all anymore?

For what purpose? The K-61 midrange horn on the Chorus II is already a step or two above the K600 horn in performance.

It would be cool to build a pair that adds enough height to be front ported, it would make these speakers a lot easier to place. My KLF20s and KLF30s always wanted to be closer to the wall than their rear ports would allow. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished results and possibly the measurements from the OP. I've always liked the looks of the KLF towers and I think developing an upgraded version is a worthwhile project.

Basically a KI-396.

I got rid of them because I heard a pair of KI-396 and was really impressed, even though they lacked a little on the low end compared to the Cornscalas. I eventually replaced the KI-396s with KPT-904s.

You're making too big of deal out of this, I no longer have my Cornscalas, but resonance issues were easily fixed with 4 lengths of 1 3/8" dowel rod to better couple the front and rear panel together. I used glue and clamps to attach them to the front panel and flush mounted bolts to attach to the rear.

Cabinet resonance issues aside (which can be fixed pretty easily), the two-way speaker will work a lot better in a smaller listening space. If you have 10'-12' or more between you and your speakers either should perform well for you.

Pictures seem to no longer be showing up.

They would work excellent as mains. These will play much lower than a La Scala and the K-510 horn is much more capable than the K-400.

This one deserves more attention as it's basically a KPT-435-M but all in one box. And since it's a cinema surround it shouldn't have a behind the screen voicing. It should be ready to go for 2-channel use. This should definitely kick the pants off my KI-396-SMA-IIs, which I love.

They also came in light oak, which will probably bring the lowest price.

Then buy the buy the length you need in the gauge you need (probably 12ga), but pure copper wire has a shelf life of about 10 years or so and tin plated copper will last many, many decades.

Why would someone use 20 ft of speaker wire? It's going to be more like 6 or 7 ft for most people and far less if you're using mono blocks. And using 14ga wire would solve all of it. This is so bogus.

I'm also a fan of tin plated copper speaker cable, I normally get it at the boating supply store.

Thanks for that, I went ahead and ordered the parts express one after watching the video. I can definately handle that, so I should have parameters posted up in about a ten days or so.
