Bill,

Anytime you would like to compare the sound from our Khorns my door is always open.

As for re-reading the manual, that's not necessary. I have been playing with Klipsch speakers for longer than you have probably been alive. You realize that 60th anniversary Khorns and Jubilees have closed in backs, right? I'll put those speakers up against yours as well.

And for the record, I never said that I didn't have mine in corners. I only said that if you didn't have corners that closing in the backs is another alternative.

Mike

Well... I can't figure out how to send a pm and I can't see the pictures. I suppose it's because I'm not a paying member (??)

You can send me an email at richard.d.albright@comcast.net and we can go back/forth.

Richard, only subscribers can see. I posted pics of Jubilees.

Hopefully Mike will want to drive over to Jacksonville and have a listen, maybe you will have those Danley Subs up and running.

p.s. I got some ALK custom crossovers the other day, I'm brewin' up something REAL good, this is off the reservation style custom.

I'm about 2 hrs from Jacksonville on a good day.

I have heard Jubilee's, (Klipsch Forum member 6foot8's) but they were the cinema 3-way version. To be honest, I much prefer the sound of my modified Khorn's, mostly because of the 2" BMS drivers on my Khorns, and because I prefer my all tube front-end to his SS front-end.

I would love to hear the 2" TAD's on the Jubilee's.

Bill, what ALK's are you getting? I have owned 2 pair of Universals (one pair was on my La Scala's) and they are better than any passive crossover I have ever heard on a Khorn/La Scala.

Mike
