Does anyone have any experience with the Chorus speakers. How do they sound compared to other Klipsch? I am not that knowledgeable about the different models except for perhaps the KHorn.I am limited as to the size that will fit properly in the listening room. The speaker should have a decent sound stage as well. One problem with the KHorn is the sweet spot being small. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thank you John And Ray for your replys and links. I searched several links last night and realized I must have opened Pandora's Box by mistake! Jeez, all I wanted to do was to improve on the natural sound of vocals. I didn't think I would get into trouble with Ohm's Law over this!! I might fry a couple of tweeters in the process by mistake. What encouraged me to take this path was the experience that I had listening to a system which had been bi-amped. This guy had wired two McIntosh MC-60s to his tweeters and had used a Mark Levinson ss amp to power his woofers. Well, that was the start of a quest to find "THE PERFECT SOUND"... kind of like the HOLY GRAIL. That was over seven years ago but the guy moved before I had a chance to ask him how he had wired everything. I suppose he must have used a cross-over in his system. I wish I could describe the detail in that female's voice as she sang her jazz piece..it was from an LP but I can't remember the kind of turntable he used. It probably isn't as important as the fact that he had found the sound that pleased him and it was a combination of tubes and ss that worked well together.

Actually I had been admiring that set for a few days now and was wondering why they were only around $1000. I have been aware of Klipsch since the '70 but could never afford a good pair. I am glad I happened upon this BB while I was trying to research Klipsch. Maybe I will eventually locate a decent set of horns and experience the K sound for myself. Thanks.

The speakers are a pair of Monitor Audio 1200s that are about 14 years old.I have them bi-wired at the present time to a Hafler 500 amp along with a Hafler 110 as a pre-amp.I thought that I would try to connect two McIntosh MC-75s to the tweeters but since I have a couple of Eico HF-52s that I am not using, maybe they would be a better choice. I am using the MC-75s in another system for Jazz which sounds wonderful through an old pair of Advent speakers!(well I like the sound) The Monitors are used mainly for Clasical Music in the "living area" of the house.

Can someone tell me the correct way to bi-amp a speaker. I want to use a ss amp to power the woofers and use two tube mono-amps to power each tweeter. Any suggestions? How do I connect this set-up through my pre-amp without destroying anything in the process? This message has been edited by JohnJohn on 04-03-2002 at 10:56 PM
