Hello all,
First post in the community but have been lurking for a few months. Was undecided if I wanted to take the leap into a new adventure. It wasn't until I walked into a record store and heard a pair of amazing speakers.
Emblem on the front read Klipsch. I have a 2.1 klipsch setup for the computer. Sounds good but nowhere near these speakers in the record store.
I ask the kid behind the counter what model speakers are we listening to? Klipsch!!
Ok...! They sound amazing...I would like to do a little research on them so I need a little more info. Kid says Cornwalls!! I kinda laugh. Go over to the left speaker and snap a few pictures with my cell phone. I'm thinking this kids pulling my leg.
I walk around and am blown away by the sound. They had on Parkway Drive which is a pretty heavy band. I swear I heard an extra guitar on those Cornwalls that I never heard on my speakers! Pick up a Guns N' Roses vinyl import and now back at the counter to pay.
Ask the kid hey what receiver are you guys using? "Boss has some kinda tube amp". Ok thanks!!
Couldn't wait to get home and look up these Cornwalls. I didn't know what to expect.. As I'm typing Cornwalls I'm thinking, is this the name of his band? Maybe some new sneaker? Hit return and those beauties come up. Same set from the record store. Little more searching and I'm up to the wee hours reading everyone's posts in this community.
Here I am..after researching tube amplification and am still lost.
The music that the entire family listens to is all over the board.
I listening tastes are more:
Led Zep
Alice n Chains
Guns n Roses
Metallica
and some heavy stuff.
My wife on the other hand listens more to
Bachata and Salsa..
My nine year old listens to Ahhh Justin Bieber type music.
I would like the community to chime in and recommend an amplifier for the diverse music listened to.
Room is not that large. 10ft ceiling, 16x18.
Opinions on tube amp kits?
Thank you
Bob
