“The secret of the product quality wasn’t the fact that it was a corner horn speaker, but that it was, well, a high quality product all the way through.”
Paul W. Klipsch
Founder of Klipsch Inc.
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.
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
Bloody cool
I'm not sure what to make of it I'm not very bright
Don't get me wrong. The sound and technology is absolutely amazing. But I'm a bit of a bass head at times. They don't dig low enough for my taste.
It’s just you haven’t heard them in the right space and with the right equipment. With today’s digital recordings the bass can be so powerful and deep (organ deep) that no vinyl settings can match. I have had Klipschorns for more than 40 years with a number of different high end equipments but the room is the most important item by far.
No deep bass!
You can always add a sub to hit those lowest notes and have a true full range experience that is massive 🔊🔊
Well, it can't--by the laws of physics. Horns--be they actual, physical horns, folded horns, or whatever else, have a minimum frequency which whey will efficiently amplify. That's called the cut-off frequency or F (sub-co). And Bottom C of a pipe organ (C1) has a frequency of 32.70Hz and a wavelength of 34.61 feet. Since the K-horn's designed to an effective horn mouth of 32 feet, it's not quite big enough to pump C1 out the same way it is pumped out at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, Germany--where Bach was cantor for several years, and where he wrote much of his music.
In other words, it's doing exactly what it's paid to do. Now, there *are* a couple of organs which go down to C0, or 16.35 Hz, with a wavelength of 69.22 feet! So, for those, a subwoofer is needed.
@@billybcgn25 Totally understand that they are doing what they are paid to do. I absolutely loved them. Nothing wrong with them at all. Plus not much pipe organ music out there that features the c0 note. Not only would you need the subwoofer to pressurize the room with the note. You would also need an insanely large room too. For such a long wavelength. I turn to electronic music by Bassotronics, Bass Mechanic, and Bass Launch for my bass head needs. Sadly they don't have music in DSD yet.
Not for so much money!!!
There are a lot of high end speakers that cost way more than Khorns.
Dann musst Du wohl bei Neckermann-Boxen bleiben. Kann man ja abschalten...
Perfect video. Clear and concise explanation on how the Klipschorn works.
