Hi all! Long time Klipsch fan, first time poster....lol. I caught the "bug" working at a local CT based HI FI store in High school in the 80's. From then on, my Realistic System just didn't cut it....We carried Klipsch, B&O, Polk, Luxman, Carver, Nakamichi, Yamaha etc., and a few others. Of course running the K-horns off a Carver amp playing the then "new" CD's and rattling pizza trays off the walls of the business next door was a weekly event. I learned some great Greek swears when they all came running into the store to find us in the "big room" with it cranked up. I've owned quite a few Klipsch speakers, including some of the newer stuff for surround, and oldies like Corwall 1's in birch (which I veneered in oak), and currently own a pair of 1985 Heresy's in oiled oak, and a newly acquired set of Chorus 2's my buddy owned and had stored in abasement for the last 12/13 years. I'm come a long way on the resto of those, including Ti tweeters, a lot of cabinet work, rebuilding and veneering the stands, and rebuilding the crossovers. They sound great. I have to re-cone one of the drones, so I ordered kits to do both so they match. One of them had significant holes and some surround tearing. I glued it up for now and they seem good to go. I just finished the cabinets with Tung oil, they look great. Currently driving them with Luxman M-02/C-02 and they sound fantastic.
