JohnJ Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 CECAA850, that's good to know. Thanks I can only imagine what this place would sound like with the Heresy IIs backing up some Forte IIIs this fall. Gotta get more cables before then.

The Apex Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Do I have to attend the pilgrimage to get in on buying a set of the Forte III in the limited veneers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the pilgrimage is just for everyone to get together and listen to music and , feed the plant workers lunch plus hear speakers that are not out yet (forte lll) and tour the plant. Mostly just have a good time. Also there will be Jubs and a sub set up to play with inside and some BIG speakers and subs outside to play music on and the bands will play through them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 They aren't slimy.I must be thinking of armadillos… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Those aren't slimy either. You must live too far north. Somewhere strange, like close to Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Somewhere with cruel winters, and crueler people Speaking some strange foreign language Like fargo or the great white north where you are stoned, immaculate 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Apex Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 I would go for the Armadillo over the Possum option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus89 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Are those grills beveled like the original or are they flat and flush? Looks flush in some and beveled in others. An option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks flush in some and beveled in others. An option? oldtimer, I must be one too, like your choice in rock`n'roll bands. Didn't ever see the one from the lyrics, but in the mid 80's saw three way opposing waves in Greensboro from the one your avatar makes me think of!! Maximus89, I know the tweed multicolors on the previous page seem beveled. Pic on the first page is like silver luster with gold lighting on it, that and the wool cloth seem flush. I've just rotated my two credit cards I use to a new zero-percent-er yesterday. Six months equals no balance for me!! Fight interest, quit charging when they start to charge you! I WILL be rockin' some Blk CA Walnut Forte IIIs by the holidays!! Edited April 9, 2017 by JohnJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The matte black with multicolored grill that looks beveled was maybe an early photoshop using the Forte II and the one from CES is the actual grill which is flush? That's my guess anyway...

jwc Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 At Pilgrimage....would love to see more than one veneer/color option 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Yea in the ces vid those white wool gauze looking ones do look flush I love that wood might deal with the light colored grill just to get it! That pic I put on page 23 I got from searching the Klipsch site after I found out about these this week. That's how I got to this thread. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Armadillo is just possum on the half shell. Not as messy cause you have a shell to hold onto, kinda like a taco shell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if things like grill colors and material has been worked out yet ? I don't think every little detail was worked out at that time, they were still playing wth them, but they sure did sound good, they have a similar tone as the 396. Roy said the same thing, I guess they were voiced similar, whatever that really means ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
