fabulousfrankie Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 If I can get sale for my current speakers and they're still around in about a month I would be interested(damn Christmas presents). Where are you located? Also how old are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOOMIS914 Posted December 25, 2002 Share Posted December 25, 2002 Drew, I can't offer cash but would trade you my Black Satin Chorus II's for your KLF-30's as My Chorus II's are too wide and the 30's would fit on my theater stage better. Mine are mint. Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krew Posted December 25, 2002 Share Posted December 25, 2002 Hey Drew, I'm intersted. I have been needing a klf30 to modify for a center channel. Anyone else here need a single 30? Where are you located? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornEd Posted December 25, 2002 Share Posted December 25, 2002 Hmmm, I might be intrested in a single KLF-30 for a new project. I am considring building a seven KLF-30 theater using "horizontalized" KLF-30's for the front center, both surrounds and two rear effects speakers in a 7.1 configuration. My calculations show that speakers mounted horizontally provide a better dispersion factor in creating a rear array with better ambient qualities without loss of full-range directionality. My intent is to build storage cabinets below the speakers in an attempt to have form follow function. I also intend to mount the Tractrix horn of the center speaker in a vertical orientation to provide a more narrow dispersion angle to provide a better relationship ship with the flanking mains in relation to the screen. So much of the total sound on a DVD is forced through the center channel... and center channels are usually comparitively wimpy to their "designated" mains... that toning down the center to hear more from the mains is a point to ponder. Having a center that truly matches the mains in size and timbre... along with a subwoofer system that can hit 121.5 dB at 20 Hz... makes a sound system that makes well mixed DVD's so great that one can't help feeling sorry for those who haven't had the experience. The technology and mixing artistry on DVD's have clearly gone beyond the reach of most "off the shelf" home theater systems. So, now I have three Klipsch projects perculating in my mind. 1. A seven Klipschorn theater for my next home. 2. A seven KLF-30 theater in a specially designed building to be donated to my club. 3. A "home" theater that can be hauled from site-to-site to invite my Renaissance Faire friends to enjoy between busy faire weekends. In light of the third option, I have been investigating some interesting non-standard room modifications to provide the largest sweet spot for the minimum amount of square footage. Also under investigation are foam panels sandwiched between rigid material that will provide an adequate sound barrier for the bottom scraping bass that needs to be contained within. More posts on this subject are likely to be forthcoming in the New Year. -HornED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewbalsman Posted December 26, 2002 Author Share Posted December 26, 2002 Hello everyone, I live in southeast MO, zip code 63701. Each KLF-30 weighs about 105LBS. I also have a KLF-C7 for $225 shipped if anyone is interested. If you tell me your zip codes I can get an estimate on shipping cost for you.

ADKD2Klipsch Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Dern, missed it by that much. LOL I could have picked them up too. Hope the buyer enjoys the 30's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMcKie Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Drew - Thanks for a smooth deal. I know I will enjoy the KLF-30s and KLF-C7. Can't hardly waite for delivery. Keep an eye out for some KSP-S6s for me. Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornEd Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Roy, if you can't find KSP-S6's you might try more KLF-30's... I use six of them in a 6.1 system plus a pair of KLF-C7's as Front Effects speakers... add an adequate subwoofer and your friends, relatives and pets will be dazzled with the result. Congratulations on owning a Legend in your own time. Enjoy! -HornED PS: Isn't it great to have a Forum where people watch out for one another. You can bet there are plenty of Legend owners who will cheer you on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMcKie Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Ed - thanks for the advice. I have read many of your comments about the KLF-30s, and they had a fair amount of influence on my final desicion. It must be quite an expierience to listen to 6 of them. In the 60s (dating myself now) my wife worked for Home Entertainment which is now Tweeter, and there is no telling how many hours we spent after the store closed auditioning all the Klipsch speakers. Our dream was to own the Khorns, but we could not afford them. We once even went to the factory in Hope Arkansaw for a tour as Paul's guest. It's sad that he has passed on now, but maybe he's working on yet another way to add to our enjoyment in another time. Your traveling HT system also sounds like quite an adventure. Anyway, I have finally aquired my first Klipsch speakers. Many thanks to all for taking time to share their wisdom. Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
