thebes Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 He would have made them more affordable. He did. Called this design the "Klipschorn." Dave Now calm down just a second there Dave. $12k is not "affordable". It's transportation. As in you can buy small new car for that kinda money. The KG series was "affordable". the Khorn has always been mid-to-upper spendy for normal real people not audiophiles who have a whole different opinion of the word "affordable" when it comes to audio. .

Old_Klipsch_Guy Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 When I was at Klipsch, we had just started sourcing a few parts overseas (cold-forged metal parts that could not be cost-effectively manufactured in the US, I think). To my knowledge, Paul never indicated any opinion on the matter, one way or the other. There are those that knew him much longer than I, but my impression always was that the solution to the problem was what mattered, and not how it was achieved. If he could've achieved absolute perfection through the use of Chinese Bull****, that's how he would've done it. Just my humble opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
