    Interesting that there was a friendship between PWK and Edwin Armstrong. I bet that mono FM receiver sounded great through a K-horn.

    Interesting the way echos disappear in the chamber. I have no idea how that works. I have a question. When Bob Crites was still around (rest in peace) he told me that he prefers the old diaphragms in midrange horns and in my feeble experience it seems to make sense. The titanium ones seem to drop out at certain midrange frequencies. Is this so, and if it is, why does Klipsch still use them in their midrange horns?

    Long gone days from the past. Now days if you need a replacement part you must give Klipsch all your personal data and serial numbers before they will even give you the middle finger. A few of their speakers are worth keeping forever but good luck with getting any customer service from this company.

    hi, sorry for my english, i'm italian. do the khorns have to be put in the corners, or can i position them like the other speakers? now i have the chorus ii, wonderful, but i've always dreamed of the khorns. thanks for the advice you will give me

    I don't understand the video is titled 2018, but Klipsch's 75th anniversary was 2022. Must be a mistake. Awesome animation. I own a pair of 70th Anniversaries which I bought new when they came out. The first ever serial production factory built KHorn variant with the sealed bass-bin. I like to call them an "AK5.5" model as they aren't an AK6 but have improvements over the previous open back AK5. I'd like to see Klipsch re-introduce a sealed cabinet Heresy, at least as an option for AK6, La Scala or Cornwall owners to use as their center channel. The rear porting effectively eliminates the ability of the Heresy 4 being used as a center speaker due to boundary gain/placement issues. The KHorn, Hersey and Cornwall are forever connected historically and hope Klipsch doesn't lose sight of that. The new Ojas collab speaker looks wonderful too. Keep up the good work.
