OO1 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 - if you like a bass reflex speaker -these are in a class of their own , tall , impressive detail in the bass section -and seamless separation with the Mids-HF - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the center, 37s and 38s. I had B&W Signature 800s (the big ones). These are just as detailed and image very well. I prefer the Palladiums as they are more efficient and easier to drive .

I've been listening to a pair of 38s and the matching sub for 9 years now, they sound wonderful. Most music doesn't require the sub. The mids/highs are clear and vocals are some of the best I've heard. If these are obtainable, I say take a good look, I doubt you would regret getting these. They are getting hard to find, I was recently offered 33% more for my center speaker than what I paid for it new. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife always tells me to put the stereo on when we watch TV, she loves them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luddite Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Is $9K an appropriate price for P39"s? That seems steep, but I don't know if they come up often enough to see a trend. Beautiful speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems steep, but I don't know if they come up often enough to see a trend. Beautiful speakers. Who can say what's appropriate. Klipsch had them on sale at 50% off, so 10k for P39s a couple years ago. If they are in great shape, and they're on your list, I'd say 9k might be a steal. I know I would add at least 2k plus my 38s for 39s. They just look stunning in person, the whole rear section of the speaker, ports exiting on the sides. They are quite a bit bigger than a 38....someone had a picture on here a few weeks ago showing all 3 towers side by side. They are huge (but the box should've been bigger) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea they're all pretty equal in size increments. @RandyH000 did you post a pic of all 3 palladium towers a few weeks ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I almost grabbed a Espresso P39 as a center channel speaker once, my 38s are Merlot. Think a 39 laid horizontal would sound as good as a 27c? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edzu1234 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 How would these compare to Jubilee's?...from someone who has heard both. Thanks for your input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richieb Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 In all due respect I don’t think they do nor were they intended to. Far different intended uses.I believe this was Klipschs’ attempt at the hi-end, ultra finished cabinet, look what we can do, WAF market. At the time K Horn's and Jubes didn’t approach the retail price of these when Klipsch ventured into the $20K speaker market. No matter how good they sounded the snooty hi-end audiophile market never equated Klipsch with a speaker worthy of $20K. At the end of the day great sound, beautiful cabinetry and all, Palladium fought a constant uphill battle in the marketplace - and lost.
