John Benson Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I want to get a pair of forte's -- and wonder who out there has some recommendations about amps, especially reasonalby priced tubes, that would be sweet? Any walnut forte's for sale in So Cal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted November 9, 2007 Moderators Share Posted November 9, 2007 Not sure about different amps but if I were you I would look for a pair of the Forte ll's before the original Forte's, better midrange IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcmusic Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I can not speak about the original Forte's I have never heard them, but I have a pair of Forte'II's with the xover upgrade from Chris Munson. I am still in the process of breaking them in. So far I can tell you that this upgrade is well worth having, at low volume the speaker is more alive than it was before the upgrade. It just sounds better all the way round, in all areas. This is just my opinion of course. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I've enjoyed them on my old Sonic Impact t-amp and my HK 3480 2 channel receiver. It seems that Fortes are more forgiving than other Klipsch speakers are as to what amplification they require. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
