robB Posted April 13, 2001 Share Posted April 13, 2001 guys...... I have seen Klipsch go through driver changes before...and i have yet to notice, ..from a musical perspective..any change in the heritage line...sonically Just before i purchased my 81" Cornwalls, they changed the woofer And after i had them for a while, they came out with larger tweeters and everything was front mounted.. Yet....that sound was still there It's just like....., A, 9' Steinway is allways a Steinway. It still has that BIG soundboard and quality Regardless of what parts they use. So CHILL....everythings gonna be fine WASN'T IT PWK HIMSELF WHO MADE A REFERENCE TO DRIVERS AND SELECTION SOMETHING ABOUT CATGUT AND WHO CARES WHICH CAT IT CAME FROM,..BUT ONLY MATTERS THAT THE STRINGS ON THE VIOLIN STILL SOUND LIKE A STRADAVARIUS?? i do have a question while im here though In regards to finish Im just about to taking the plunge into a set of cornerhorns.. 1) is the finishing still as nice as the "80's" models that were made 2) when i heard the klipschorns at the dealers house,..these models were in rosewood...with black grilles can you still order the custom finishes. or is that just a "great memory" of the past and everything is now the oiled walnut with black grilles ?? mind you..the walnut with black is still outstanding to see..

jdm56 Posted April 13, 2001 Share Posted April 13, 2001 I tend to agree to an extent about driver differences being less of an issue with horns than with direct radiators. But still, I be illin', not chillin'...just call me a worrier. I've got '98 k-horns in oak oil, and I'm totally pleased with the finish quality. I don't know about the "exotic" finishes, whether they're still available. I don't believe they mention it in current literature. ------------------ JDMcCall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
