Khornukopia Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 The 18" subwoofer cabinets are taller now, so they look like they belong next to the big Klipsch speakers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornukopia Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 Moved the two Rosewood cabinets to surround channel positions, and brought the two Mahogany burl cabinets forward to the front channels. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornukopia Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 Very happy with the warm, inviting look of my speakers. My inspiration was from years of watching and listening to symphony orchestras, my field of view filled with the golden brown colors of violins and cellos.

Khornukopia Posted March 19, 2021 Author Share Posted March 19, 2021 Needed to repair a blemish on my center channel speaker, and while it was out I slid an old La Scala bass cabinet in its place. I have always liked the lines and angles of the La Scala, since the the very first day I met some Klipsch speakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first encounter was at a dance party. My friends and I were totally intrigued that all the clean powerful music was coming from a pair of boxes without any visible speaker cones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted March 24, 2021 Author Share Posted March 24, 2021 Center channel cabinet is back in place and my life has returned to normal. The ceiling mounted halogen lights have been re-aligned to emphasize the woodgrain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornukopia Posted March 24, 2021 Author Share Posted March 24, 2021 I visited a house recently and noticed that the ceiling speakers are shadowed by the ceiling beams. A poor placement made worse. Makes me glad to be on the Klipsch forum and read about sensible people and their fine audio systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shape of the flange on the K-400 makes it difficult to mount on the front of the board, so I just have to use a newer style horn . I know this was some time ago, but I just made a template and routed the opening on my beater LS cabs. Worked out fine... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
