Moderators Amy Posted May 28, 2009 Moderators Share Posted May 28, 2009 Unfortunately, we do not have the rights (yet) to post this article, but if anyone in the UK (or anywhere else they have distribution) can get a hold of Hi-Fi news, hitting newstands tomorrow, there is a great article in the Audio Milestones section about the Khorn. Check it out! [Y] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I didn't know that "In the Noughties, the crossover was revoiced" : ) Awesome article but I gotta research the Noughties. It is great to see the Klipschorn get this kind of review. "as long as the Klipschorn remains in production, high-end audio will survive" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwingylee Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Excellent read. I like the section on Dave Wilson. One of the few contemporary speakers that approached the Klipschorn in terms of dynamic range and "excitement" were in my experience, the Big WILSONs, Rockport Antares, MBL 101Es and big powered ATCs....The Big WILSONs come the closest. At least I now know about his inspiration. I sat my wife in front of my recently acquired 77 Khorns over the weekend, driven by a 3.5W SET playing Stevie Ray Vaugh's Tin Pan Alley. Other than saying the speakers were big and weird, she was rendered speechless by the sound..... this is from a person brought up on BBC style monitors.

Islander Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 SRV's Tin Pan Alley is a great tune, especially at fairly high volume, since it's so low-key. It impresses everyone who hears it on my system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fini Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Of course, we've got to say something like, "I told you so...", or, "DUH!" Heh... Iain, that may have been a bit of a typo. I think he meant "In the Naughties, the crossover was rejoiced." I think it's a randy reference to XXX flicks (Naughties) featuring transvestism (crossover) being openly quite popular. No idea how that relates to the Khorn though. Oh, those Brits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 8, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 8, 2009 What a great article. Gee whiz Amy, what have you been doing to get all of the print media press lately? I too was very interested in the information about Dave Wilson and his owing a K-Horn, wanting a meeting Mr. Klipsch, etc. Very nice, Travsi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
