Another from The Hu. Metallica cover.
Mongolian language & throat singing lend themselves very good to heavy metal i must say.

Yes Sir, report coming up, Sir!!
Your input is very much appreciated! Since i couldn´t audition the sub i´m a little worried. As per the owner it was used until rencently, but you never know... I´ll know more next week.

So i did it, pulled the trigger and bought the thing. Even got a little discount, paid 125€, shipping included. Curious in what shape the SW will arrive here and what verneer is under that black finish...
A question to owners like @Peter P., is there a way to see if booth woofers are ok, without breaking the enclosure open?

Take a look at this finish. It was originally black... Sanding and staining can bring it to this. Looks amazing.
If you buy something like this new, you'll pay way more.
The one in the eBay offer is just plain black - now, but that is one of the points that tempts me to buy it. I saw that post´s pictures and others on the net. some really beautifull sw bass-bins out there.

Maybe someone else will see this.
That´s what i hoped for. Why do You think it´s being used so rarely, most KGs had enough bass as was, people liked going active better?

PeterP, and I and others talked about this before in the past here. Try a search of the forum may yield more. Glad he chimed in.
Unless someone vetoed here, would go with it.
Only downside Could see is you unhappy for a reason.
Upside is, you could sell it locally.
Another upside is you would now have bass. Owned a pair of 1.5 so yeah.
Did that too, for example:
Call me selfish, but maybe i wanted some more recent input, but You´re right of course.
So far thumbs-up only, reasuring.

I've never heard the KG-SW but a good friend of mine uses an SW-8 sub with KG-2's for his TV set up and that little sub really does help to fill them in so worth it IMO. You're obviously not going to get Jurassic Park bass out of it but maybe closer to a full sized set of towers?
Thanks, but it was not my intention to go jurassic anyway. ^^ It´s more like lessening the bass-load on the 1.5.
1 hour ago, Peter P. said:There's extra wiring involved; you run your speaker outputs into the kg sw, then run wires from the kg sw to your regular speakers; it has a built-in, fixed high pass filter.
In fact i ran my 1.5s like that before with the Yamaha, so i know about the cables, i can stow those away under the desk.
I´ll wait a little longer, but the feedback so far lets me think that i might pull the trigger on this one.

I´ve been looking at said KG SW on ebay for some weeks now and i have some questions to once/still owners.
I would team up that sube with my KG 1.5s and a Yamaha A-S201. Does that sound like a worthwhile idea?
Another idea would be to use it with my Heresys, once those are done, but i also have a Yamaha active sub i was planing to use for the Hs.
To be honest, maybe i´m just intriuged by the fact that the SW belongs to the KG line, looking at the pictures it leaves a good impression and it´s fairly cheap, sub and shipping about 160€.
So, what are Your opinions?

Cranked just a tad!
Even if Mr. Collins can´t play the drums anymore, still nice to hear him sing...

Among my friends, i am the only one who has a real stereo set-up, let alone HT. Either they don´t have the space or it´s homes where music is only a background and not actively listened to. Everybody has an Amazon-, Netflix- etc. account, but watches on their laptops or phones...
Maybe it´s an era of music & movies on the go? Often i hear opinions like: "It´s just music, why all the hussle...". or "Too exppensive." or "Too complicated.". Are we geeks? I mean we are, but, we are in the age of "Fast". I´m rummagin´...

Aren´t the Epics from the same era as the KG point-five series? So the frames would be plastic i guess.

Yeah André ..it´s a wonderful singer- songwriter Album. It´s called " Chants from another Place " by Jonathan Hultén . He was front man of the " death metal band " Tribulation from Sweden. It´s his first Solo Project. Love it !!!
I googled him too right away and i thought "death metal"? This is so very different, he seems to be very versatile.

Great! Some of the imagery reminds of Tolkiens paintings.

I used the detergent method on my KG1.5s, no problems. I´m not shure about the chlorix, but was thinking because of the mold.

And that filth on the grilles?
You can just bathe the grills in warm water and cleaning detergent, maybe gently brush them down. I don´t know how the fabric would react to water diluted DanClorix or something, will it loose colour?

Granite is a beautiful stone and looks great when used in racks and shelves... alas, for me, the size and thickness i need, it just too expensive for me. But who knows, if not now, maybe later.
That TEAC component on the right, is that a DAT-recorder?
