jacksonbart Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Seriously they look sweet, 15 grand is a bit out of my price point at this time, but would love to hear them. I am sure there will be a dedicated manual printed in Japanese. At 15 grand these are till 10 thousand less than the JBL's K2s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy, is there ANY information you can give us regarding the first available time to demo them? Will we just have to wait until they hit the dealer? jc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will probably plan an "open house" informal event so forum members can come listen at our headquarters when the rest of the line is ready, but obviously that would be more ideal for people in this area. More details to come... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB, I think you are exactly right, except I would be that the manual is also going to be in Chinese. Travis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyKlipschFan Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I happen to love the look. Will there be a front grill option too? The little kids love to poke at stuff? Amy, please keep me posted on the audition date! And fantastic to see a 3 way design on the flagship speaker from klipsch!!! Wooo hoooooo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Amy Posted August 23, 2007 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2007 Thanks, Travis! There is a front grille, Roger--magnetic, of course, but the posts are under the veneer, so it looks like they are magically attached []. I can't wait for you guys to see them. They really are stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vital Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Seriously they look sweet, 15 grand is a bit out of my price point at this time, but would love to hear them. I am sure there will be a dedicated manual printed in Japanese. At 15 grand these are till 10 thousand less than the JBL's K2s. I thought the K2s were 12k a pair a few years ago. Either way the new Klipsch look awesome. I hope the Premier line comes out soon, the Palladium is out of my range right now. I'm looking for something new from Klipsch in the 4-6k a pair line.

damonrpayne Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 Amy, is this the ONLY floorstander in this line, or will there be a 'cheap' option for a measly $10k/pair or so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Registrar Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 How about Palladiums? Anyone who pays $15,000 for a pair of speakers needs serious help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Amy Posted August 23, 2007 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2007 I am really excited to see, AND HEAR, these. I am not really happy with the name either, Palladium is too common, can you even trademark it? There should have been a contest on here to come up with a name. Travis Hey Travis, Actually, we do have the name Palladium trademarked, so yes. And it turns out the atomic number for the element palladium is 46. Coincidence?
