rowooo Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 Shapeshifter....Great system. Are those Chorus or Forte's in the music room? Also, I would check the foundation around your house...Looks to me that you have a problem with large multi-color snakes, especially behind your component rack.

Colin Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 very nice good, looks like you have the necessary leather couch - what is under the speakers in the front room? ------------------ horns, tubes, subs, leather couch & female vocalists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShapeShifter Posted September 16, 2001 Author Share Posted September 16, 2001 Colin, Thanks. Yea, I like the leather look and feel too. The reclining aspect is nice too. I have zebra print towels folded between each Heresy & front Cornwall. Just whimsical things to match the Zebra print rugs on the wall. Have cut and polished glass tops on the rear Cornwalls. For me, it's fun place to just lounge, relax and enjoy the Klipsch sound! On my way out now to craft & fabric stores. I'll be looking at fabric colors that I might possibly use, to cover a pair of white KSP-S6's for rear wall installation. Later...Wes This message has been edited by ShapeShifter on 09-16-2001 at 09:44 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Cornell Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 Are those quintets on top of the cherry colored entertainment center? Wes. my academy is very nice, i dont think im going more than 5.1!! But maybe DTS someday!! All your klipsch look in new condition, nothing like haveing your personal museum!! Id hate to hear how much you invested!! LOL Ill post my system, soon, the camera i have SUX!! Regards Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty65 Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 Wes, Where did you get the framed photo of the Klipsch Heritage speakers seen sitting on top of the cornwall? Wish Klipsch would make available photos of Paul and the old Klipsch logo for sale. Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eq_shadimar Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 Your setup is certainly awsome. I bet it rocks when everything is cranked up. Would you mind listing what speakers you use with what systems and listing the equipment that you have? BTW the pictures are fine you still have some brain cells left (and they must be mighty happy with all those Klipsch around:-). I just have one last question. Where are your socks?

ShapeShifter Posted September 16, 2001 Author Share Posted September 16, 2001 Hi Jim, Thanks & Yes they're Quintents. Got 4 plus center and Infinity Sub in bedroom. Glad your Academy arrived safely. I may be stuck with 5.1 for a while. I think the fireplace to the right rear hampers side surround placement. But 5.1 is good, I mostly listen to multi-channel music. It's all good as long as we enjoy the music and "Klipsch Is Music". Hello Marty65, Thanks. What I actually have framed is an old Instruction Manual for the Heritage Line. I thought it would look good framed too, glad you liked it. I like framing old Klipsch brochures, binders and manuals. I think they add a nice historical touch and are conversation pieces as well. Enjoy! Hey eq_shadimar, Thanks for your compliments as well. Yea, when I'm home I really enjoy this room the most! BTW - I only have one pair of socks, so I can't afford to leave either one laying about.LOL Here are the Klipsch speakers I have set up and stored.

Mike Lindsey Posted September 16, 2001 Share Posted September 16, 2001 Wes, Very nice setup...I'm jealous with envy! I agree about the leather couches as well. I have the same setup as you regarding the seating...plus 4 recliners in the couch and loveseat. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShapeShifter Posted September 16, 2001 Author Share Posted September 16, 2001 Mike, Thanks for the compliment. Yea, I like the recliners in both of mine too. They do make me a bit lazy, just want to lay back and listen to more music What a fun hobby!

TheEAR Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 Very nice ShapeShifter,I can see you are a true Klipsch man.You even have framed Klipsch adds! Nothing too fancy just a very classy setup.And the HT setup is loaded with Classic Klipsch(on the sides). How much more Klipsch speakers can you fit in? With all the large Klipsch speakers you dont need too many watts to make movies and music come alive.The Outlaw amp in your HT system is a nice bonus. Good setup,very nice.

TheEAR Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 At your limit! Nah you still have some space for more audio gear and speakers. My audio room is as full as an egg right now,I sit in the center of the room and gear almost sourrounds me! One can say I have a true sourround system LOL And I am sourrounded by a serious audio problem.Audio mania! At least your setup looks good,I think you could find a plave in your room and heart for some RF-7's TheEAR(s) Now theears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomer9911 Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 still nice to see, always thought of Cornwalls or Forte. This message has been edited by boomer9911 on 10-16-2001 at 10:28 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lindsey Posted October 17, 2001 Share Posted October 17, 2001 Yeah...I can see this thread popping to the top every once in a while just to see the pictures again. Very nice indeed... I don't know if you know it, Wes, but I'm heading to West Palm Beach this Sunday to pick up a pair of Chorus II's (in Oiled Oak) from 1990 that look like they are in great shape. Colin is heading over tonight (he lives in West Palm) to look them over and give them a listen. If he likes what he sees/hears then I will make the drive down to pick them up. I will then use them as my mains and move the black Chorus's to the rear for 5.1 music. Will let you know if I get them. If I do, hey...I'll only be like 5 pairs of speakers behind you...

ShapeShifter Posted October 18, 2001 Author Share Posted October 18, 2001 Thanks again. Hey Mike, Glad to hear your adding more. Should be a heavenly sound! You may have to add a "Hauling Klipsch" moniker to the tail gate of that Ram Truck. I'm still looking at 1969 Camaro RS/SS Convertibles, with the prices I'm seeing. I may have to sell some of my Klipsch to finance one. Wes ------------------ "KLIPSCH IS MUSIC"f> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lindsey Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 Wes, Can't wait to get these as they look immaculate from the photos. BTW, it's myram with the Ram truck. I have to borrow my sister/s Lexus SUV to pick up my speakers. At present, I only have the Vette but it could be worse... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 Comparing Apples And Oranges Klipsch Chorus II vs. B&W Nautilus 803 My first impression was that $500 used 1990 Chorus IIs were a hell of a good speaker for the money. Nothing seems to be missing. I listened for tone and texture, and was very favorably impressed. The Chorus IIs are a hell of a deal, compared to the $2,500 B&W 803s. On the brief selection that I listened to, they sounded very much like the 803s. The 803s seem to have slightly less "air" about them and less "bite" to the horns. There were far more similarities in this limited demonstration then there were differences. In fact, I found more differences between my tube set-up with big old Klipsch Cornwalls than I did between these two speakers. Without missing the chance to write a long review, I posted my thoughs on AudioReview at http://www.audioreview.com/reviews/Speaker/product_7754.shtml ------------------ HORNS & subs; leather couch & feet up; lights out & tubes glowing!
