HIFI-NEWS La Scala AL5 review

I thought it was a far better review than the one of the Khorn. I would also disagree about listening to softer music. I  find certain orchesrtral music to be incredibly relaxing on my La Scalas. Perhap they were simply listening too loudly.

Hope no one minds but I tried to take some pictures that would show off how great Klipsch did with the new design that allows the veneer grain pattern to flow continuesly on the cabinet.

 

This is the right La Scala

I haven't heard the AL5 version, yet.  I did get to hear an AL4 and it didn't sound much different than my '81s.  I am running a tractrix tweeter, now, too.  So, their frequency response curve is bothersome.  My system measured +/-4 dB re 1k in my old house, up to 14k, and was reasonably balanced across the spectrum.  I don't think I hear what their response curve shows. 

 

The descriptions of detail and sounding "live", yes.
