I've purchased a bunch of used Palladium speakers over the past few years. For most of them I paid just under or at half of the retail price.

I'd definitely be interested in the P27-C center and one P312-W subwoofer (maybe both) if you decide to split up the set. (Sorry, but I already own a set of every Palladium tower model and can't fit any more. 🙂) I'm in eastern PA, so I'm definitely within pick up distance.

I'm pretty sure that the ceiling bounce speakers (aka Atmos-enabled) need a flat ceiling of somewhat average height. I found this in one of the installation guides (https://www.dolby.com/siteassets/technologies/dolby-atmos/atmos-installation-guidelines-121318_r3.1.pdf): Room treatment considerations for use of Dolby Atmos enabled speakers For optimal performance, the ceiling should be flat (not angled or vaulted), with a height between 7.5 and 14 feet (2.3 to 4.3 meters), and made of an acoustically reflective material (drywall, plaster, hardwood, or another rigid, non---sound-absorbing material). The ideal ceiling height is between 7.5 and 12 feet (2.3 to 3.66 meters).

Thanks for the replies and apologies to @Kalifornianfor somewhat hijacking his topic. It's really the same question. Now I will sit back and lurk unless I think of another relevant question.

No, I don't have spare amps lying around. So, I'm asking people for recommendations on what to buy. I'd rather not just buy whatever I can find on Craigslist, etc. and then have it lying around or reselling it. I'm not someone who turns over gear all the time. Interesting. Those look like something I might be able to build. The NC400 kit doesn't seem as good a value for the money as the Buckeye amps but if might be an option if I need them quickly.

I have not seen an information about the Heritage Jubilee coming with any amplification. The DSP is included but I'm pretty sure I still have to purchase 4 channels of amplification before they arrive.

I have a preorder in for a pair of Heritage Jubilee. Should I be considering these Buckeye amps for that system? They are much more affordable than some recommendations I gotten.

I put Crites tweeters in my KLF-20, KLF-30, KLF-C7, and a Heresy II that I was using as a center. I was pleased with the results.

I'm corrected a second time. @Chief bonehead, since you designed it I'll call it what you call it. 🙂

Don't know if there are any internal differences from a stock 2050 for the new Heritage Jubilee. However, there is an external acoustic horn lens being used with it. (Thanks @Chris A for clarifying that the phase plug terminology used in the video is incorrect.)

Whether it's a lens, phase plug, or something with a Dr. Suess name, I'm confident that Roy made the correct design decisions about it and that the new Jubilee will sound phenomenal.

LOL. That was a ridiculous gaff. Mine are going in the corners. Already asked Roy a bunch of questions about placement in my room (with pictures) in a Facebook group thread. He's so great about answering people's questions.

Well, then complain to whoever wrote the text for the video because that's what it says. 🙂

Not sure if there is any internal change but for sure the chief has added an external phase plug.

I always want to hear one of those dbx dynamic range expanders to see if they really worked and if they introduced any problems (added noise, distortion, etc.).

Are you talking about the Jubilee DSP? The controls on the Jubilee DSP don't seem to be 'tone controls' or 'filters' (i.e. for adjusting the the frequency balance of a recording). The rendering of the DSP in the CES video labels the controls as "gain". I think they are just to adjust the gain on the signals going to the HF and LF amps to account for gain mismatches. Perhaps @Chief bonehead can verify this...

Not sure what you mean. The DSP had HF and LF gain controls which I assume are there to adjust for any amp gain differences if one tries to use different amps for HF and LF.

No. I commissioned it. It was done by Paul Lazarou, a tattoo artist from Down Under (https://www.instagram.com/p.laz.tattoo/). He posted a similar La Scala drawing to one of the Klipsch Facebook groups a while back that he did for fun and I liked it. So, I asked him to do the Palladium drawing (my current profile pic) and now I asked him to do a Jubilee drawing since I'm getting them. It should be arriving in the mail in a few days.

That's the max SPL at 1m. The sensitivity is - HF normalized to LF - 105dB/1m.

Of course. I'll post here and on some of the Facebook groups about it. I've already commissioned a new drawing that I'll make my new profile picture once they arrive and are set up. 🙂 https://www.instagram.com/p/CPj37d6Lh2s/

I started buying Klipsch in the '80s and for me Klipsch means beautiful wood veneer finishes. I never got why you would want to paint the veneer black. The only black Klipsch I own are models where there was no finished veneer choice. So, it won't be black. Whether it's walnut or the finish of another edition that @PrestonTom speculated about earlier in the this thread and others in the forum have hinted may or may not exist will depend on what that hypothetical finish may or may not look like. 🙂

Certified Heritage Dealers have the pricing. I was given the pricing when I placed my preorder, so I think the pricing is set. No, I'm not going to reveal it unless someone from Klipsch or a dealer says the pricing is public knowledge. 🙂 However, I was not given any idea of availability. The wait is going to kill me.

The +/- values are mentioned. They are just next to the specification name not the value: FREQUENCY RESPONSE (+/- 3 dB) 18Hz – 20kHz

I don't know if it's University of Arkansas approved but if it's just for note taking you may want to look at the Surface Go 2. You don't need the horsepower of a Surface Pro just to take notes. It's small, lightweight, and easy to carry. I love mine. I got the Intel Core M3/8 GB RAM/128 GB SSD model.

So, maybe you will be able to do a Pro vs Heritage Jubilee comparison video for the YouTube channel. 😁
