Mid Horns and Drivers for LS

One last thing about upgrading the midhorn of a Klipsch Heritage speaker. I recommended horns with a 1" throat as a cost saving measure.

IMHO, a long mid horn with a 15/16" throat is 100 year old technology. I think Holland and Newell are right. A horn that can stay 12"-15" long will sound the best. You can get the horn shorter many ways, but I think the best way is to use a driver with a larger mouth.

IOW, to upgrade these LS, I think you should spend the money to upgrade the mid horn and the mid driver. Factor in an additional $1,500 onto your purchase price.

Hope this helps someone,

Jamie

Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!
