Moderators Amy Posted July 28, 2009 Moderators Share Posted July 28, 2009 Excerpts: "And boy does the Klipschorn make music. With a minimum of amplifierwattage a Klipschorn can provide enough sound to fill any room in yourhouse. Or your neighbor’s house. You get the idea. The best thing about K-horns is that they not only go loud but theymake music along with deep, deep bass and smooth highs. This big boxsounded amazingly good powered by everything from the classic Fishertube receiver to a Dynaco ST-35 (also tubes), a Bedini 25/25 - aNuForce Icon and a wonderful Altmann BYOB. It doesn’t sound “dated” orold-fashioned. Just musical. But, it’s now time to say goodbye to the Klipschorn. We’refirming-up plans for its repacking and shipping back to the factory.I’ll miss it a lot (my neighbors probably won’t)."

BLSamuel Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 It doesn’t sound “dated” or old-fashioned. Just musical. Well DUH! It is a Klipschorn after all. You've gotta wonder where some of these supposed music lovers, oh wait a minute, audiophiles, have been the last 60 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 oh, goodby to 'this' Klispchorn. I saw the way they'd written it up on FB and it looked like 'goodbye to the Klipschorn' yikes. whew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 He didn't seem clear on what's inside the cabinet, referring to a horn tweeter and a big woofer, as if he didn't know the woofer was horn-loaded. Wonder if he even knows what a compression driver is? He did like the sound a lot, and that's what matters, so I shouldn't grumble...

RT FAN Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I have been reading Gary Krakow's writings on MSNBC for years and I always found him to be an well informed and well written journalist. It's no surprise to me to find that he loved the sound of the Klipschorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
