billybob Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Klf alright but serves a dual HT role. Those Chorus will rock your world and with those 15 inch K48 bass will pound you in the chest...no contest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not so much... I think you got it covered pretty well. I would just point out the Chorus have a much higher sensitivity rating, can realistically handle easily twice the power and get very, very loud while staying crystal clear. Bass isnt quite as low as the 20's but they miss very little in actual musical instruments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

System is used primarily for Music I have owned three sets of KLF20 and a set of CF3 and two sets of Forte2 and one pair of Forte but I have not owned the Chorus but I do own a set of JBL L200b which now have installed in them a pair of JBL 2226 woofers (these are 15" based two way speakers not so different from the Chorus). I think the only way for you to know which will suit you best is to listen to a pair of well functioning KLF20 and also a pair of Chorus ll. The thing is that both do great stuff but you will have have to make this call. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWL Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 listen to a pair of well functioning KLF20 and also a pair of Chorus ll. Key words = well functioning. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Issues with KLF series to know about #1) loose baffles (front and back) due to defective hot melt adhesive on the melamine. Remove the melamine at the joint reassemble with white wood glue will be much better than new and last forever. #2) Black poly tweeter diaphragms the worst Klipsch ever used replace them. 3) Woofer dust caps coming loose easy to repair. 4) Upgrade crossover caps. 5) Brace work. That's all the big stuff there are lots of mods folks can do to take them further if they want to. Excellent speakers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chorus1 Fan Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Chorus 1's get my vote. I also think they're realatively "underappreciated" even by Klipsch fans due to the Chorus 2 having a tractrix mid. (but in a small or normal "house sized" room this too is a non-issue. For my 13' x 12' listening room, I don't think I'd trade mine for ANY other model ! (& I had La Scala's in there prior to my Chorus 1's) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
