    Center and Surrounds for LSII's

    in Home Theater

    Posted

    I love my new lascalas. Of course they will be better when I move into my new house (Bigger Room). But even then another lascala used as a center wil not work for me. Well maybe!!!!!!

    I am crossing my fingers for a Heritage Center that is up to speed with the LSII's and is designed more like today's center channels. If that makes sense. I know, I know that the Hersey was designed to be a center for the Khorns. But then why are they so different. You can't tell me the HIII has the premium crossover and components that are in the Khorn or LSII's.

    Just wondering the differences across the board.

    I am planning on going to on the June trip to Klipsch. So maybe I can get some demos or some ideas. Don't need the surrounds until this fall.

    Now that I have had my LSII's for a couple weeks I am now thinking about center and surrounds. I am ok with HIII's for surrounds but can a single HIII really server as a center and match the LSII's

    BTW - Anyone know when Klipsch is going to release the "New Heritage Center Channel?" And no I am not talking about the HIII.

    Pyro...sorry I meant to respond sooner.

    I would be thrilled to see someone with a similar setup as mine. I am still amazed when I turn on my stereo. If the peak meters ever hit 2.5 watts....the bass is pumping so fast and hard. Very good detail.

    LOOK!!!!!!!

    jc I saw that one on Ebay but I decided to buy new. Ordered a MC252 today. THanks for the advice. Also closing a deal on a MX134. I am loving it!!

    Am I correct in the price Klipsch is charging is the MSRP? Hence, I could buy them locally at the same price? I would expect that manufacturer direct would result in a substantial savings but maybe I am missing where the discount is shown?

    You are correct. We actually encourage people to listen and purchase from their local Klipsch dealer. We are offering Heritage Direct for those folks who do not have the convenience of a local dealer who carries them.

    I live in Amarillo TX 4-5 hours away from the nearest heritage dealer. I would be more willing part with my hard earned money if I could buy direct from the manufacturer at a discounted price. It's hard for me to shell out $3500.00 for a pair of Cornwall III's that I have never heard. If it were cheaper to buy directly from Klipsch, or if they offered some sort of incentive like financing, better pricing or consecutive serial #'s, I would have already pulled the trigger.

    But that price includes shipping to your house and no state taxes (Unless you live in certain states). I just had LaScalas delivered to my living room. Great experience and the serial #'s are consecutive.

    Pyro.

    I have a Mc252 pushing the La scala II's right now. Fantastic. McIntosh MDA1000 DAC and Peach. Peach II coming.

    The Mc252 seems like overkill but I love it.

    jc

    So the MC402 would be over the top overkill. Thats what I was thinking in the first place. My gut says get the MC252.

    The first weekend has been great. Fired up my new LaScala's II's delivered directly from Klipsch on Thursday, did some adjustments. Was actually a bit disappointed, then I remebered that the speakers need to get a little break in time. Well its Sunday now I guess they are getting broke in. THe sound is just amazing my favorites so far are Pink Floyd DSOTM and Natalie Merchant - Ophelia (Great Disk BTW).

    Next upgrades will be some Mac equipment A/V pre amp and a 2CH Amp. After I move into my new place I will be looking to add a center and surrounds.

    Thanks to everyone on the Forum who helped me with my decision. It was the "Right Choice."
