Jim Hunter arrives this afternoon with a pair of KI-396s, and an 1801 subwoofer to be loaned for the event next Saturday night marking the Inauguration Day for the Regional Music Heritage Center in Texarkana.  He'll also be bearing a pair of newly minted Heresy's and a La Scala to be placed at the RMHC as the first...and most useful...part of what will become a display to honor PWK's legacy to the music world.  PWK is the only non-musician, composer, or genre to be honored by the RMHC as his work advanced all of those, and more! 

 

The Klipschorns will be delivered "when it's time."  Can't rush those through the skilled hands of our friends and neighbors at Hope! 

Hopefully, (no pun intended) I'll have the system set up with my '72 'horns in time for my son to man an "open house" so folks coming Saturday for the event will be able to see our wonderful, historic downtown building that awaits renovation in the new year.

Thanks to KGI for their support!

The one with the black background was designed by Matt Sommers of Klipsch.  Superb work!  Certainly drinks up my black ink...  He actually asked about that.  I told him that as long as Klipsch was supporting RMHC the way they are, my ink is their ink!

Congratulations, that's going to sound amazing, both speaker designs excel at what they do and together can rattle walls with clean sound.

Jim Hunter and my son Thomas unwrapping a freshly minted 1802 subwoofer.  330lbs of fun!  Then came the KI-396But wait, there's more...La Scala II and two Heresy's.  Can't rush the Klipschorns being hand built by the skilled craftsman at Hope.   But will have the Pros at the performance Saturday night and the others set up with my '72 'horns at the RMHC future home on Saturday manned by Thomas for visitors. 

Stop by, say hello, and sit a spell!

Saying goodbye to those bad boys is really gonna suck.

That's the truth, but he does get to play with them.
