Hi Everyone,
Just got my March 2004 issue of Stereophile yesterday, and nearly choked on my tea! A reader said he liked his old Klipschorns and other Klipsch horns (La Scala, Cornwalls) more than other high end speakers (like B&W & Martin Logan). Gordon Holt agreed with him that vintage drivers sounded better in the midrange, and he (JGH preferred them too). And then, the editor, John Atkinson, said he is trying to get a pair of Klipschorns reviewed by Art Dudley.

First 2 pairs of singe driver speakers (cross over less) in Jan 2004, now a Klipschorn review coming up.....Jeeze!! Looks like efficiency is coming BAAACK in the mainstream hi-fi world! I see a jump in Klipsch sales ahead!
