When people ask me why the Jubilee's are so big I respond with the old muscle car adage, there is no replacement for displacement.

And then they listen and hopefully they get it. Like my SIL said "Wow!"

Hi there were would you get those speakers from in new zealand 

Is there a Klipsch dealer in NZ? They are supposed to orderable through authorized dealers. Perhaps fellow kiwi @Ziggurat knows or can help.

the old  Jubilee can become an even better speaker  with  the Celestion Axi 2050  , roughly 2k$ for a pair  ,

 

klipsch should not have phased out the Heritage Jubilee 2020, since it  was the last PWK creation  , I truly believe that the  old Jubilee deserved to stay in the klipsch Heritage lineup for the next 50 years , why not ?

There was never a jub in the heritage lineup.

I don’t have another 50 years left but my Jubes will be with me for the duration.

Haven't been in NZ for a long time....

 

Are there any NZ or Aus hi fi equipment manufacturers ?

Just curious from looking at the names on your dealer's web site but didn't want to click on every vendor.

 

Slightly off topic .........
