Klipsch designed the first La Scala in 1963 for Winthrop Rockefeller’s Arkansas gubernatorial campaign as a portable version of the Klipschorn. Sixty years later, Senior Engineer Roy Delgado Jr., has designed the La Scala AL6 featuring an external active DSP crossover network to ensure the highest degree of accurate reproduction of sound. The DSP network adjusts the phase and time delay of each acoustic component to eliminate acoustic phase cancellations and maximize output in the crossover region for truer-to-life sound. The DSP network also provides the necessary EQ and gain adjustment to blend the three acoustic components together seamlessly. Photograph provided with the kind permission of Klipsch Group Inc. Actual product will differ from the photo above. Beautifully designed for shelf or rack mount applications, the La Scala AL6 active crossover also features adjustable trim levels to ensure the ultimate listening experience tailored to your room and personal taste. The giveaway recipient will choose from specific woods available for final production, and the building of the cabinets will commence under the direct supervision of Senior Engineer Roy Delgado, Jr. He will also personally select and match all drivers and enter active crossover settings. Roy will sign this special pair of speakers Heritage Subwoofer Opportunity - the recipient of these unique speakers will have the option to purchase a matching Heritage Subwoofer at special pricing. Heritage Subwoofer is Expected to be released early this Fall. For more information on Sponsorships and the Spring Klipsch Museum Visitor Center Fundraising Campaign, contact Klipsch Museum of Audio History Board Trustee and Corporate Secretary Denise Cooper at secretary@klipschmuseum.org. You need not be present to win. Shipping of these one-of-a-kind speakers is limited to a physical address in the contiguous United States (aka the lower 48). Fourteen days after reaching Sponsorships representing 800 entries, the Klipsch Museum will schedule a date and time to conduct the random drawing of the giveaway speaker recipient.

We have hit the min. number to call a cut off, the question is when to call the cut-off and when to do the drawing. If we hit the max entries before the class we will readjust accordingly. First, Roy said during the meeting that he decided to implement changes in the bass bin/dog house to get bottom end to a solid 40 hZ. He apparently has succeeded with that (the -3dB point is even lower). He is even figuring out an upgrade path from an AL5 to an AL6. The drawing will be for the AL6 with the all of these new improvements, and it will be both passive (includes the two balancing networks) and active XO. Roy made statements during the meeting like “I’m really pumped about what we have done and how this is sounding,” “I have always had a soft spot about the La Scala, and really wanted to take it to the next level.” There will be a Listening Lounge in a few weeks (I will post flyer) that will cover: the drawing, what the AL6 will be, bass bin updates, and the Chief Bonehead Education Class (Active vs. Passive) in November. As of now, anticipate that we will cut off all Sponsorships (opportunity for drawing) noon Central Time the first day of the class in November. The drawing will be one night of the class, and we will try to live stream that. I will update the thread on the AL6 and create a thread on the Chief Bonehead Class, and cross-reference each topic (sorry in advance for any confusion resulting from 3 different things going on at same time). If you have any questions, you can post here. For suggestions or comments, feel free to PM me or email to travis@klipschmuseum.org.

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 4 Author Moderators Share Posted June 4 Just now, Schu said: that is not the definition of Gambling... It could be in AR and many states, Catholic Church has a monopoly on bingo is where it starts (they are exempt from license), but it’s to protect people from unscrupulous people having a charity “raffle” for a huge cash prize or car, and there is no charity, or no grand prize. But you can attest that neither is the case here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 4 Author Moderators Share Posted June 4 Roy is going to do a live presentation on the speakers towards end of June (3rd or 4th) week of this month. I will update. I will announce 2 week cut off at about 800 tickets sold. We are 1/4 the way there at less than 24 hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Travis In Austin Posted June 5 Author Moderators Share Posted June 5 I have to add, many thanks to everyone for selecting the checkbox to donate the creditcard fees to the Museum, 100% of the nearly 25 donors selected that option. Some of you in this thread are among those. That is a huge benefit to the Museum, can't thank you all enough. Thank you all for your support.

Smitty8451 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Whelp I figure I have AL5’s signed by the big guy himself so I did a donation. I have immensely enjoyed my many Klipsch speakers over the years so this was just a small token of my thanks to Klipsch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be an upgrade kit coming for La Scala AL5 and Klipschorn AK6 owners. I'll be first in line for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the idea I have been told, however, the timing on that could be quite a while. Someone should ask Roy when he does his live presentation at the end of the month.

I will try to get an update on the scheduling of the live presentation about these speakers, the LS6, and the Heritage Sub-woofer option that will be available to the sponsor selected in the giveaway. Historically the live presentations have been on YouTube and Facebook simultaneously. Travis 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
