Unfortunately, I live in Phoenix. I'm actually working in NYC right now but I don't think United Airlines would consider 2 La Scala as carry on. Maybe if I bought each one a first class seat?

My next door neighbor has the tools to be able to do this job as well and he digs projects. So, this would be a good way to go. Question: Since the Anarchy drivers are obviously passive, where do they connect? To the La Scala in order to get powered from your amp? You will need to buy 2 of the cheapest plate amps from Parts Express. About $50 each AFAIR. the curves I shared were made from that amp, which is part of the cabinet. https://www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Audio-SA25-25W-Subwoofer-Amplifier-300-782 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 A five hour drive would be a short trip for me. I think Schu is only selling because he got the Jubilees. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakeydeal Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I agree about the LS II, go for them instead. Much better than earlier lascalas to my ears. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me ask you this since you've compared both. Do the LS II have that same open and super forward highs and mids that the Heresy 1 exhibit? I mentioned earlier that I've read that the La Scala have a lot of the same qualities as the Heresy, just way bigger soundstage and way more immersive. I'm really after the precise "live in person" sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakeydeal Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 If you are after “live in person “ sound, the LS II offers plenty of that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Smith Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 The Klipsch resto guys are local to me and I've met them when selling some cornwall parts in the past. Their shop is legit and they seemed nice enough. I'll often see their speakers here on the DFW craigslist and I find their taste questionable at times. They oversell the "upgraded components" sourced from Crites to justify the premium they usually ask. I don't think they're nefarious in nature, but I have to imagine they saw what Volti audio does and figured they could capture a piece of that market by simply applying their carpentry skills to rehab and flip some speakers. You're paying a premium for those speakers, and all of it goes to some fresh black paint and veneer - just keep that in mind. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've messaged @Schuand haven't heard back from him at this point. I do really want to chat with him about his LS. It's fortunate that Phoenix is a pretty easy drive to Vegas. I'd just need to find a friend foolish enough to go with me with his truck. Or rent one. I don't think these will fit in my wife's Acura RDX. And DEFINITELY not my Dodge Challenger! Schu, hope to hear from you soon! Edited November 15, 2021 by Rotobadger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff. Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 @Rotobadger, sometimes fate smiles upon you. Those LS IIs for sale by the forum member down the highway from you are a no-brainer if you want a one-and-done, sit back and rest on your laurels, spend two weeks in Mexico trying to have the perma-smile on your face removed by a cash only doctor purchase. But, if like most the rest of here, you want to always be searching for what if, and what next, you COULD go another route, lol. I have two pairs of La Scala Industrial splits with upgrades and would trade them both for a pair of La Scala IIs sight unseen in a heartbeat. Best of luck to you on a giant leap forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstrickland1 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I do have a pair of 2's but shipping from Banana Land in Charleston SC would not only be expensive but dangerous. I'd only sell to try some Cornwall IVs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 - much like Kramer and Seinfeld who got on the wrong side of Joe’s fruit stand - he’s been Banned. Banned I tell ya’! He was such the bad boy, sent to his room with no dinner, no TV, but still has his LS 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he got banned/suspended for a period of time due to some posts Travis didn't like. I'll reach out to him via Facebook and see if it's still in effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
