klipsch speakers,be honest

Just to add to the discussion, there is a man named Bob Crites who can be found both on the Klipsch forums as well as selling replacement Klipsch crossovers (and other parts) on eBay. Bob has fabricated a cabinet and custom crossover for a speaker he calls the 'Cornscala'. Excuse me if this has already been covered somewhere in these threads.

With this speaker setup, you can either use the existing tweeter and horn from a La Scala, or buy them from him. The woofer is also forward, like that of the Cornwall. A friend of mine has just ordered the kit, so I haven't yet had the chance to hear it. I believe that you can get the cabinet, all of the drivers, and the crossover for under $1000. You end up with the mids of the La Scala and bass response down to 30Hz, and Bob claims that they sound pretty darn good.

It just never ends...

Boa,

Please report back with some thoughts after they're up and running.

Happily, Fishboat. I'll have to take a drive
up to Tahoe and get a listen when he has them
assembled. He will be using them with both a Cary
300B SEI and a Yamamoto 45 SET amp. He also has a factory
modded Audio Aero Capitole MKII. Darn nice system, really. I'll let you know when I get a chance to hear them.
Have a great weekend!

Boa: Do you have a website for this product? Sean

Sean,
Here's a link to one of Bob's creations. You can write him, and he will send photos with an explanation of the process. I don't think he has a web site, but I'm not certain about that.

I use his crossovers on my La Scala's, and they sound tonally like the originals, but the mids/highs project notably better.
