steve Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Brand new, from the factory! This will be my center channel in my three channel system. Wish they had the walnut finish, but they didn't..went oak..don't mind the difference really, and love the sound! Decided to go new, as I knew what I'd be getting..will post a longer message describring what I have gone thru in the last few months..

sunburnwilly Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Congrats Steve !!! I couldn't believe the differance when I got my center Belle . Are you going to run a 5.1 or 7.1 setup , or is this strickly 3 channel ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 actually, it'll just be a 3 channel..and yes, you're right! I've been listening to 2 channel with the Khorns 21 feet apart for 10 years in this room..what a difference now! There really was a hole there! Now I get to play this weekend, and set the center level just right! I'll try to get a room shot posted again..the forum didn't like the "stitched' shot!

steve Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 oh, I try!! Thanx Willy! BTW nice set up you have!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunburnwilly Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Likewise to you Steve . Did I mention I have Belles in the rear as well ? Unfortunately I am limited to 1 room so my system is all purpouse , one day though , one day ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinr Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 The Belle is still one of the best looking speakers ever made. I haven't seen the new La Scala, but it would have to be some kind of speaker to beat the Belle for looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 I agree Edwin..I have had Khorns for years, used to have Heresys, but I have never set eyes on a real Belle before I opened the box tonight.what a beauty! Willy, I can see why you have all Belles ( except for the sub..I figured it was all Belles when you mentioned 5.1 Belles!) I will post a longer post this weekend, FWIW! I have swapped a lot of stuff in the last few months.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunburnwilly Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 ..I figured it was all Belles when you mentioned 5.1 Belles!) Yeah I was just thinkin' , Who reads the signatures anyway ? [:^)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Blacksmith Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Too cool! Nothing like the smell of a factory fresh speaker! It looks fantastic and I am sure you love the sound. Happy dialing in process to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflash Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Beautiful Speaker and nice system you have. The Belle is really a good looking speaker. Maybe someday. Enjoy, Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksonbart Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Congrats, they are being discontinued aren't they? You got it in the nick of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 thanx all! Can't wait til tomorrow night, when I have a few hours to really enjoy it! Yes, they are being discontinued..I saw a post here that said Klipsch had a handful left..so in October I asked the only Heritage dealer in Alaska if he could get me one, and he asked Klipsch..they replied yes, they could put one together, but it'd take 6 weeks..I figured it was worth it..it actually took about 8 weeks with shipping..but that was included so I didn't have to pay it from AR to AK..so I wasn't complaining..I had it shipped air freight from Anchorage to here, and I get a great discount working for the airline..so I'm pretty happy.
