Congratulations on your new acquisition. I can't wait to hear what you have to say. Especially as you have the HJ in the same place in the same room and have obviously gotten to know the UJ very well over the years.
I share the UJ with you and also your taste in whisky. A Port Charlotte, for example, among all the other potions on your windowsill also feels very comfortable in my home😀

Congrats on joining the HJ club.  I agree with @diamonddelts that you should start a new thread to share your experiences.  Obviously, I dumped most of my learnings at the beginning of this thread.  However, since I'm approaching the 2-year mark of owning these, feel free to tag or message me if you have questions.

I purchased a pair direct from a Celestion dealer and they have a male spade. I hate the spade and am trying to find out what other connector might be available. I had a Allen's screw type banana jack for attaching to the spade and it is ok, but I would love to be able to have a direct spade or screw terminal instead.

I just used the spade connectors, just like Klipsch did in the Jubilee.

Did you solder or crimp your wires? I have not been able to find any female spades that can hold a 12 gauge speaker wire.

I have NO interest in changing from the Professional Jubilees to the Consumer Jubilees at this point, regardless of their capabilities... I find something VERY endearing about the the Original folded horn Bass Bin over the modern Ported design even though it's less capable.

 

UJ has been tough to wrestle with, and its been trouble to get right... but it's been a cool journey.

A very capable horn sub (the biggest one) from Roy should solve the low end, if you want it.

@MMurg I took the plunge and ordered a pair of Heritage Jubilee that should be here in the next week or so.  I will have them in an even smaller room than you (11ft x 13ft) and am taping out placement.  If you wouldn't mind, could you share the dimensions I have highlighted in green?

 

 

Sorry for requesting the info in this format, I would have sent a PM but my account is too new.  I have been lurking a while and should have registered sooner.

 

Thanks!

still waiting... I am kind of scared that they will be approved for public release with all the Audio industry consolidation happening...
