Coytee Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I was curious if there were any "KT-90" amps, sort of like doing a search for a 2A3 specifically. So, I did a "kt90 amplifier" google search. I found several items and decided to read one. This one : http://www.tnt-audio.com/ampli/audionsterling_e.html One thing caught my eye that I thought all of us Klipsch lovers would like to read I quote this fine gentleman "Throughout the fervent SE era there were a thoughtful few who kept asking one very key question: Where are the loudspeakers that are well suited to these amplifiers offering but a single digit of wattage? There was no viable answer. Oh, there were a few psychos with VOTs and a few more with a pair of Klipsch out in their garage, but no one really wanted to hear those speakers" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpm Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I'll bet only 1% of the 2 channel home audio population like Klipsch speakers. I'm one of the 1%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted February 2, 2005 Author Share Posted February 2, 2005 move over, I guess I forgot to admit being a psycho. I too am in that 1% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Was the reviewer named Paulie Parrot? I agree that the Klipschters give the minority report in audio. Those persons among them who think flea powered amplifiers are wonderful, are the sickest among the sick. Coytee, thanks for the post. great quote there.

J M O N Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Don't fret too much about this. Not everyone is aware of the secret we know and some people have let those kind of comments overrule what their ears tell them. It's the very reason you can buy some of the best loudspeakers ever made on the used market for around two grand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoriated_Tiger Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 The audiophile press seem to harbor undue ill feelings about horns.. Klipsch in particular. Wonder if it was because of all those little yellow buttons Of course, things change. AvantGarde has made it somewhat more acceptable to be a horny audiophile.. who knows, perhaps one day we won't be seen as heretical infidels... naah, it's more fun this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinr Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 The reviewer has no credibility. He obviously hasn't heard a Klipschorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
