I bought these speakers using Bitcoin...



I had to walk the dealer thru the transaction but once everything was set up and transferred, the transaction was immediately settled.
I think, without looking them up, I know what those are.

Also why not get perlistens if you're gonna spend a Escalade worth on speakers?

Bet they sound great tho.

I get asked that a lot... I am a die hard Klipsch fanatic. I was one of the founding members of the Paul W. Klipsch audio museum in Hope, AR.

The guy that I bought these from is a major Perlisten dealer.

For me I think it basically comes down to 'Scale'... there is just no replacement for displacement because everything sounds so LARGE. that doesnt mean loud, although these speakers will absolutely permanently damage your hearing.

They are basically Commercial theater main speakers and are usually used in iMax theaters and large auditoriums.

of course I have modified them also... I immediately replaced the stock commercial 2" Klipsch driver with a 5" Celestion Driver. These drivers are absolutely massive and heavy... the Celestion has a 7" diaphragm and weights more than 15lbs.

I've had nothing but Klipsch stuff for years, and can completely understand why you'd want those.

Did you get these from Paducah home theater? I've got a couple of speakers from that guy in the past if it happens to be them.

Tv is way to small for that room, which is crazy to say about a 65, and agree with House it should be Football lol.

Early 1980s speaker tech wasn't there yet.

True that... then you think about the fact that Paul Klipsch designed the Klipschorn in 1947 and it has been in continuous production ever since to this very day and it still stands up against even the most modern speaker designs at a similar price point. Its shocking how good it sounds when the un-initiated hear a well set up pair being driven to an extremely clear +100db with only 2-3watts of amplifier power... when many modern speakers these days struggle to get to a good usable 90-95db with 200-300 watts or more.

The we can go back even further and marvel at some of the western electric theater speakers from the 1920's and come to realize that a art form has been mostly lost to time with the exception of a very few high-end speaker makers. There is a strong appreciation in western Europe, Japan and southeast Asia... so there is hope.

I'm gonna guess most people have no idea how loud 100db is, I know those can handle it but for most a sound bar is like "being at the game" or whatever.

I can only get like 65 db or so then my neighbor can hear my stuff . RP8060fas/2 SPL150s ect.

Maybe once a month I'll say F it and listen to a song or two fully juiced but that's about as much as I want to put them through lol.

Yeap... in an enclosed room, 100db is horribly loud, and these speakers are 108db efficient 'in room' with 1 watt. I have never wanted to try, but ai am sure they will easily pump out 140+db with near zero distortion.
I normally don't listen more than 80-85db, and that is plenty for me before in room reflections begin messing with my hearing.
It's great to know there is at least one other klipsch person on this forum enjoying their sound system.

BUY THE DIP!
