Congratulations. Let us know what you think of them once you have them installed and are listening to them. Those are great speakers! -
Mint Bluesound Node 3 streamer: $410 choice of white or black
chronometers replied to chronometers's topic in Garage Sale
I think so. There is an ethernet port. From Bluesound's website: ------- PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS. Bring music into your NODE using HDMI eARC, Wi-Fi or Ethernet, Apple AirPlay 2, aptX™ HD Bluetooth, or USB, to hear audio content from streaming services, TV, and your own music library. Listen to your music through your HiFi system or through wired or wireless headphones, by connecting to the RCA, TOSLINK optical, aptX™ HD Bluetooth, 3.5mm jack, Apple devices, or other Bluesound or BluOS players. -------- I have one unit connected to my router using an ethernet connection and the other is controlled and streams wirelessly. If you can connect via ethernet, I think that is the best way. -
Mint Bluesound Node 3 streamer: $410 choice of white or black
chronometers replied to chronometers's topic in Garage Sale
An optional remote is available from Bluesound. However, it is not necessary and of limited use as it only controls volume and allows for skipping ahead or back. The unit is controlled for the Bluesound App on a smartphone or tablet. I've been using this system for 9 months or so and the high-resolution streaming from Amazon HD, Apple music, and Tidal is really phenomenal. -

Yes, I will keep the other one. This is a great solution to streaming music and has a high quality DAC built in. -
I have two Bluesound node 3s (as in review below). One is white and one black. I used them about 10 hours each. I do not need two of these (although if you have multiple systems, you can control multiple streamers from one point...smart phone, tablet or computer). I paid an average of $410/ea. so I would like to sell them for. They are essentially like new w/ box, papers and accessories. Here is node 3 review: https://www.google.com/amp/www.stevehuffphoto.com/2023/04/07/the-bluesound-node-gen-3-review-stream-away/%3famp=1 The built in DAC is super too. I use one streaming through a PSE Studio SL pre to Studio V mono amps to La Scala speakers. With high resolution source such a Tidal or Amazon HD, the sound is phenomenal! Price $410.

Hi -- Does anyone know whether the T-35 super tweeter is now being produced for Klipsch by Dai-Ichi and being supplied by High Performance Stereo (HPS) of Henderson, NV? The following article from 2010 seems to indicate so. https://audioxpress.com/article/remembering-the-electro-voice-t35-super-tweeter As I mentioned in the previous post, HPS is utilizing Crites AG-55G mid-range drivers in their theater speakers.

Hi all -- Curious as to what the connection is, if any, with Klipsch and HPS? HPS' theater system looks like a previous generation La Scala with some mods. John Allen spent a lot of money to bring back the T35 tweeter that is used in Klipsh's heritage speakers currently as well as the A-55-G Midrange Compression Drivers. https://www.hps4000.com/pages/525_.html Has anyone else used these drivers as replacements in vintage units? What have the results been? 525.pdf

How do the A-55-G/2 compare to the original drivers? Trying to decide if I should swap my k-55-m on my 1997 la scalas. Is it worth the investment?
-
Good score! They are similar to a pair I got on eBay except mine are from 1997 and therefore have AL-3 crossover. Finish and condition is very similar.....mine xame from an Indiana theater. Mine has the grill cloth over tweeter and squawker. I like mine and am sure you will like yours!

Thanks! 😺👍

Seller has good reviews. Someone get out there and check these out!

Yes, the seller reposted several times on eBay. Units appeared in great shape with original documentation. Looks like it was a great buy! -

No affiliation. I'd check these out if I were out west.... -
No sales tax for resellers that have applied to eBay for tax waiver.

I think both should be similar. Did you obtain them?

No affiliation. These look nice and if I had a place and the funds, I'd communicate with the seller: Rare Rosewood Finished Modified Klipschorns. FREE SHIPPING
