Wishihadklipsch Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 Reason I was asking is... i have a pair of speakers for sale right now (not Klipsch) and I could buy a set of Hersey’s for basically the same money they sell for. Or sell both the Quartets and the non Klipsch and get the Forte 2’s for the same money. Which I may do in the future. My thought was 4 speakers better than 2. So I will keep the Quartets until I can upgrade to Fortes. I’ve already gone down the rabbit hole far enough....for now anyway. Thanks for the advice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff. Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 ...keep the Quartets until you can land some Klipsch with a 15” woofer, especially the Pro stuff. And at some point in your life, you owe it to yourself, and everyone you love, to audition a pair of La Scalas in your own space. If the price is right, they are rent free when you sell them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were lucky; I was so poor I couldn't afford even ONE speaker, and had to connect the speaker output wires to my fillings!

You do have several options but, this sounds like a good plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to suggest something similar in price and size to consider in the realm of what OP inquired about. MCM 1900 fantastic, sure. Who can fit that in the average listening room?

nickyboy6100 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 The Chorus was mentioned earlier. If it was included in the OP’s post. That’s what I would have chosen. I’ve owned both Forte II and Forte III’s and would pick the Chorus I or II over the entire lot. They are very good speakers. It took La Scala’s to best my Chorus II’s. Sometimes I wish I would have kept those. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I transported a pair of Chorus IIs for a former forum member. While I had them in my possession, I tried them out. They would have been my choice after my LaScalas, too. Ended up with MWM cabinets for a while. Just go big... go ahead, get it over with. You won't be satisfied with much else after you do that.

Quartet already has the Tractrix midrange and a 10" woofer instead of a 12" or 15" Easy path is to just add a good subwoofer and call it a day because you already own the Quartets. Post some pics.
