woolygums Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Several people have emailed me about pictures of my speaker stack. The bottom bass bins are 70 inches wide. I will post specs later. I am 6'2" if that gives you an idea about their size. The ceiling s ten feet high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you using to drive those beasts? ---------------- It sounds GREAT! Weird, this is my first Klipsch and they are enormous. Weight at a little over 1200 lbs for the stacked pair! I am right now using a Parasound 6 channel high current amp with 80 WPC at 8 ohms. With the amp wide open I can not input more than about 2 on a scale of 10 from the preamp or be deafened. These speakers are very high efficiency it does not take much wattage to drive them when you get the crossovers working and eq balanced. I have just gotten a Parasound AV-2500u with a 5.1 card, and a Parasound CSE that will give me the two mains, two center surrounds and two rear surounds and a rear subwoofer. I also just got a B&K THX Reference 7250 5 channel with 200 wpc at 8 ohms. Will integrate this into the system as well. Will be running some of the Klipsch MCM speakers on individual channels. Got a couple of Crest FA901s for the subs. WHEW this is turning into a PROJECT! Am right now researching designs for the subwoofers and a center main that will be compatible with the MCM 19000s. Anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J M O N Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Very impressive! Instead of using 200 watt amps, have you considered going to low-powered tubes? Even at 3 wpc, you could probably still generate pretty substantial SPL's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
