Scrappydue Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Looks good but man those mains need to come out from the wall about a foot. They are gonna suffocate in there. Quote
Jugger Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Looks good but man those mains need to come out from the wall about a foot. They are gonna suffocate in there. I agree but then they are oddy half way in the room. I run the fronts set as large and can feel tons of air pushing out the ports. I have moved them 18" from the wall and they do sound better. I have heard from someone at Klipsch that plugging the ports will help tremendously. Quote
tromprof Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Here is my Quarter pie theater, the pics have been in the Quarter Pie thread but I will put them here as well for those who don't frequent that sectiopn of the forum) The pics are of the front three, I have two more QPs for surround left/right, and KPT-100s for rear (though they are currently disconnected, they just can't really hand with the big boys). 3 Quote
Moderators dtel Posted October 15, 2014 Moderators Posted October 15, 2014 New cabinet made just for Academy That's the same idea I want to build whenever I switch TV's, only a little bigger for a Forte ll in the cabinet, thanks. Nice looking room and cool rug. Quote
Moderators dtel Posted October 15, 2014 Moderators Posted October 15, 2014 Wow, this thread got forgotten... Nice tv stand. Quote

Now that is cool, love the idea. I have thought if I ever switch from the Forte ll setup I would do similar, just a single mwm bin and maby a 510 horn for the center to match the 402's. The rears is where I would have a big problem, unless I could get by with the fortes, that's all the room I have for the back and they even have to be up my the ceiling pointing down. Quote

This is all down in my basement and it is a big open space, so lots of room to place big speakers. Quote
derrickdj1 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 here is where i go to escape Very nice setup and room. Looks like a great escape plan to me. Here is my Quarter pie theater This is the first quater pie system that I have seen. Very impressive. I see they are used for more than movies. Quote

I have heard from someone at Klipsch that plugging the ports will help tremendously. 6 to 8 inches might be enough? Also, if it were me... I'd lower the TV and center speaker a bit. They seem high to me. The speaker could cover part of the hole in the wall without any real downside. Nice seats! I'd try moving them forward about a foot. Too close to the back wall might not be optimal and it looks like you have a little space to give. Quote

Very nice, but I doubt the KPT-100 can't manage. (1) There's never that much surround content. (2) There are Cinema speakers after all, with 113 dB maximum output at 1m; that's only down 8 dB from Klipschorns. (3) I use them with Klipschorns and they manage for me! Quote
psg Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Wow, this thread got forgotten... Nice tv stand. Optical illusion. The La Scala is flush with the wall. The TV is on a wall bracket. But thanks! Quote

It is not a volume issue.It is a quality/clarity issue. They muddy the sound. They are nice little speakers and worked fine in my previous setup, but the QP setup is really amazing. Quote

Did you do the crossover mod to remove the X-Curve? Quote
psg Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 This is what you are looking for and may make your KPT-100 sweet to your ears: https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/139441-kpt-100/ Easiest way to make the mod on page 2. Quote
Paducah Home Theater Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Yeah, it's dark... black everything except the occasional copper. Looks better in person. Still building, bear with me. Edited October 21, 2014 by MetropolisLakeOutfitters 3 Quote
