gazzamongo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) Well here's my acquisition du jour. Don't know if you chaps would consider that a good price or not , but it's had all the work done to refurb it. I'm in the u.k so I'm used to tiny naim amps with 15wpc so hearing this hooked up to a big pair of tannoys was a bit of a culture shock. It REALLY took them by the scruff of the neck , providing all the finesse i could wish for. But also dynamics that had me ducking for cover at times. Pretty smitten with it and it'll go nicely with something i might be picking up tomorrow Sent from my LG-H930 using Tapatalk Edited June 7, 2019 by gazzamongo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got some cross polination going on so you might get some odd balls.

What box will you be using, and what amp? I am installing the Umax 18's in a pair of large ported cabinets and each will have its own Dayton SA1000 Amp and external Velodyne SMS-1 DSP units. The sealed boxes, available as flat packs, are a good deal. I imagine your pair of 15's do a great job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzamongo Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Altec 515g -hp . available readily to you guys in the states but i don't see many here in the u.k. What to do with them ? Volvotreter straight horn , quarter pie horn , karlson k15 ? Choices choices The seller had a nice set of klipschorns too. First time id heard a pair in a domestic setting.

Even at 1 kHz, the wavelength is still over a foot. So as long as dimensional errors are kept to fractions of an inch (even fairly large fractions of an inch), everything will be OK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah , probably just made some sort of wrong headed assumption that if a design becomes revered , there must be some sort of black magic in the finer constructional details Chances are ill either make k15's again cos i liked em , or Claude's quarter pie as its so straightforward to build.

teaman Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2269220603340993/ I just picked up this pair of oak KLF-20 for $300. Pretty happy with them. They sound great but there are substantial scratches, dings and small tears in the grill cloth. Overall for the price I can't complain.

I was actually out looking at condos most of the afternoon. First thing i saw when I opened FB this afternoon was this pair twenty minutes up the road from me. I figured after 8 hours of listing them, they would have been gone. Still available so I jumped on them.
