Tim_in_Norfolk Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Continuous 100wpc. max is 400 I think. Cool, thank you, was a little worried giving her the QSC, more power is one thing, the fact she is not afraid to use is it, is another Her Ks are in perfect shape, installed Full new Crites crossovers before setting them up last year. I'm not a tech guru - I'm sure most forum members can run rings around me - but don't forget the possible impact of 'over-driving' your amplifier. Clipping distortion can easily destroy a set of tweeters. Regards, Tim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktate Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Search Properly toeing in speakers in 2 channel I think it is. Mine are about 14 on a 14 foot wall with one fake wall I made attached the speaker. I sit about 12 feet away sounds fine to me. I use to have Scalas in the room and they were further out due to box size and I could adjust them a bit but sounds just as good now. I do not think you would have a problem with your seating at all.

babadono Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Those kHorns look to be in great condition. Personally I don't get the black finish but to each his own. Maybe in a dedicated HT where the lights will be off most of the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1UC Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Walnut would be my 1st choice , if not black . Im wondering if 2700 is highof a fair price ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babadono Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I paid $1200 for mine second hand in 1987(jeesh that'll be 30 years coming up soon!). I have put more into upgrades than that. I would say factoring in inflation and if there in as good of condition as the pictures show $2700 is not unreasonable. If you really want Walnut wait for Walnut.

If you like Black, why not go with Pro series gear? As to price, The Black Ash is a negative for me, but location/distance from you is a MAJOR plus! They aren't very old either...

Heritage_Head Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I have never owned khorns but everything I have read tells me they need the right room with corners. a1 your room might be a bad match imo.

Regards, Tim The wife has enjoyed her current system for about a year, this is her first Class A , and as i sit at home in the Cave, only having completed my current system last July, im already planning/buying goodies for the next. Am i or the wife any different than anyone else? My outlook is: i will do whatever she request on her system, if it Smokes/Fry's, it's her system/lesson learned and just that much sooner she gets the next upgrade, i mean hell, maybe SHE wants to pizz off a neighbor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Black was never in my taste for Ks either, untill JWeber posted his "Alert" from Audiogon at $999, and they were an hour away. Needless to say they were in my truck the very next morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris A Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Well this sucks , From what I was told since they are on a 45 deg and my room is 12ft wide I would have to sit around 6ft away for the sweet spot . I have to be 13 ft away . Oh well maybe another time . Using false corners you can aim them wherever you need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie 500 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I thought I wanted black until I saw a schweet set of Walnut. Unless you really want black and he comes down substantially from his asking price I'd hold out. They are real close, which is a plus. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
