Kevin Merritt Posted May 28, 2001 Share Posted May 28, 2001 I am the new & proud owner of a pair of Belle Klipsch. I have been looking for a formal review of these bad boys but without any luck. Anyone know where I can find a review? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Cornell Posted May 28, 2001 Share Posted May 28, 2001 I still havent seen any reviews anywhere on the belles, and ive been everywhere! Either there rare, or just forgotten!! Who knows, feel proud, your one of very few to own them!!

soundog Posted May 28, 2001 Share Posted May 28, 2001 You might also want to look at LaScala and Klipschorn reviews ... they use the same components, although the cornerhorns go down to 35Hz while the Belles and laScalas go to 45. Otherwise they sound the same. Consumer reviews whuch have their limitations can be found on www.audioreview.com ... also you'll find a lot of comments on all three of these speakers on this site.

JohnA Posted May 28, 2001 Share Posted May 28, 2001 Probably the best you're going to get is the La Scala reviews on AudioReview.com. http://www.audioreview.com/reviews/Speaker/product_7739.shtml The Belle differs from the La Scala in 2 basic ways. The Belle's bass horn is wider and shallower, but is said to perform identically and the Belle's squawker horn is shorter. The La Scala uses the K-horn's K-400 (400 Hz) horn and the Belle uses a unique K-500 (500 Hz) horn. Since the crossovers have been the same for most of their lives, there should be little difference in their sound. If there is any, it would be because the K-500 is operated closer to its cut-off frequency than the K-400. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
