tidmack Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Hey guys, I've been speaking to Kurt at Vel lately and he had some interesting things to say about their subs with Klipsch speaks. He actually recommended the CT-150 over the HGS subs with heritage Klipsch's. He said that the efficiency of the 150 makes it a better match to the heritage (la scalas and Cornwalls in my case). He said that the HGS line, although among their best subs, don't keep up well with Klipsch speaks. I know this board has raved about the the HGS's, but what do you guys think of the CT-150?? I'm hoping to listen to one this weekend, but I'm wondering how they match with your Heritage speakers. Any help is always appreciated Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 jeff, was that u that was looking also at their SPL? yea that's what he told me 2, although he did say the hgs-18 would do fine w/ it's higher spl (& i have to agree so far). but yea u could buy 4 CT for the price of 1 hgs-18 (i don't have the space for even 2). i've heard they're pretty good on the spl basis. pretty close there to the paradigm pw2200 there. may want to consider those svs 2. 4 of those would be easier w/ the cylinder design ------------------ Klipsch KLF-30 (front), KLF-C7, Cornwall I (rear) Velodyne HGS-18 sub woofer Monsterbass 400 sub interconnect & Monster S-12 cable Sony STR-DE935 a/v receiver Sony DVP-C650D cd/dvd player Sony Trinitron 27" stereo tv Toshiba hi-fi stereo vcr Technics dual cassette deck Technics direct drive turntable Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2000 digital cable box 2nd room: Klipsch RF-3 (front), RC-3, cheap little Technics (rear) Kenwood KR-9600 AM/FM stereo receiver (vintage '75) Teac PD-D1200 5-disk cd player Sega Genesis game player Sub: None yet rock on!

tidmack Posted April 26, 2001 Author Share Posted April 26, 2001 Boa, Yes, Kurt did also tell me that the hgs-18 would be fine. . .and you're also correct that I can't afford one I'm going to give a 150 a try soon. I had planned on a spl-12 or hgs-15, but it looks like I could get 2 ct-150's for that cost. anyone have experiences with the 150?? do they indeed work well with Klipsch??

boa12 Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 yea sounds like 2 CT-150 could do the trick. but haven't seen any on this board using 2 CT-150 w/ the bigger heritage. maybe 1. happy woofing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
