jimjimbo Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Just for the heck of it......Looking for your most humble opinions, and feel free to expand on your reasoning to your little hearts content...ok, here we go kiddies!! Assumptions: 2 channel only, all of the amps necessary to drive/easily switched in/out, capable of both tube and SS amplification. Good equilateral listening triangle of 13 ft. each. Decent acoustics, ceiling treatment Sources: BRD, phono, CD, Streaming Rock/Blues/Soul/Jazz Four pairs - (no subs) Heresy I's - stock Cornwall I's, recapped, total restore Belle's -AA's recapped Chorus II's - stock Question: If you could choose two or three pairs to play together (in pairs), which would they be? And, where on the "flat plane" in front of you as the "Wall O' Speakers..." would they be situated? Drawings welcome. 4 speaker (two pair combination) Inside - Outside - 6 speaker (three pair combination) Inside - Middle - Outside - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORE KLIPSCH PLEASE Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 OK cool....cuz I do this. From your list I would do the Bells at the far left and right flank....I would put the Chorus on the inside of the Bells....I would toe in the Bells and have the Chorus flat just off the back wall. I do this with my LaScala's and ChorusI's/II's...... I'll drive the LaScala's with one Adcom555II and my Chorus with one of my Bigger Carvers.....hmmmm TFM55x. I have not done six speakers......but I would throw the Heresy on the inside of the Chorus. Now I know you said no subs........but I gotta have my subs..... mybe one.....or two.......or three.......yea three....lol lol MKP :-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO1 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 the heresies on top of the cornwalls - the belles with the chorus beside for more bass - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Cornwall's at the apex of the triangle, Chorus a little more in and mount the Heresey as a FH speaker if they all had to be on the front wall. The H1 may be used as surrounds but, that was not an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjptkd Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I would do the Cornwalls tight in each corner on the outsides with the Chorus II's just on the inside of the those. I've ran different pairs up front before, even ran a pair of KV 4's, one on top of each Chorus II playing in stereo and thought it sounded great. Things don't always have to match, some times the sum of two different sounds can create an excellent sound of its own. If you already have said speakers try out all combos and see what you like best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
