因本人职业关系,进关问题不大,运输也不是问题(空运或者海运都可以),只是不知道这箱子是否容易玩好,个人现在对此箱有2点打算:1、先入一对纯玩HIFI,最多有时候接上家里原有的威力登DD18玩玩2.1的AV。2、如玩的起来(主要是功放方面的要求不大的话)那就再入一个用来做左中右前三中置,这样可以hifi和av兼顾一下(其实器材再贵一般来说还都能玩得起来,就是房子玩不起,呵呵,所以还是影音不分家了。BTW,浙中小城市,市中心价3W/m2有余,怎么玩?:shutup: )
请大家给点前级和后级功放方面的建议,主要是这箱子美国买非常便宜!:loveliness: :loveliness: 另外颜色本人因为可能要兼顾AV,还是偏重黑色,但显然平时来说核桃木色更美观大方!:loveliness: :loveliness:
下面再贴些亚马逊网站用家对此箱的评论,粗略看了一下好像反映都非常8错啊![s:17] [s:17]

The mighty Khorn, November 7, 2009
It is not often something designed and manufactured over 60 years ago can stand the test of time. The Klipsch horn is one of them (others that come to mind are the Fender Telecaster, Stratocaster, Porsche 911, etc.)
The nice thing about the Khorn is it tucks neatly into the corners of your room. The speakers may be big, but they don't take away from the living space. They sound fabulous! They have some of the best imaging of any speakers I have ever heard (even the Jubilee)...the bands instruments and singer are easily located in the listening field. It is as if you are at the concert! In fact better since you can control the volume and program. I have run the Khorns with a cheap Denon AV receiver all the way up to a McIntosh tube amp. All sounded terrific.
Another nice thing about the Khorn is that they can be updated. Say you have a pair manufactured in 1960...they can be brought up to 2009 specs by changing a couple of drivers and adding new crossovers. These are things someone can easily do if they are handy with a screwdriver. That is like taking a 1963 Porsche 911 and bringing it up to 2009 specs for far less than a new one! Name another product on the market that you can do that! Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

One of the best -- with good recordings, July 2, 2009
Whenever you move from one well designed speaker to another well designed speaker, you gain something and lose something, IMO.
Klipschorns excel in dynamics, and certain kinds of "presence." In a large room, with a good SACD, Bluray disk, analog open reel tape, or with an especially good CD, DVD, or vinyl Lp, they produce an enormous sound that really does sound like a live orchestra. As J. Gordon Holt (the founder of Stereophile magazine) once said, "they trigger the musical Gestalt" for many listeners who are musicians. That triggering is far more important than the few individual variables we can measure. In terms of the conventional measurements Klipshorns have very low intermodulation distortion and very low harmonic distortion. Some
expensive speakers have flatter frequency response, but flatness of frequency response is less important than other variables we can hear, but haven't developed ways to measure, IMO.
As to "power," with the most conservative ratings, it would take an 800 watt amplifier into a typical speaker (one rated at 90 dB at 2.83 volts at 1 meter) to equal the output from Khorns with an 120 watt amp........ with ratings based on the Khorn pushed all the way back in a room corner or an artificial corner (where they must be) a typical speaker would need over 3,000 watts to produce sound as loud as a Khorn with a 120 watt amp (these are figures I just happened to have -- in practice, you wouldn't want to put a steady signal of either 800 watts or 3,000 watts into a typical speaker, nor would you want to put a steady 120 watts into a Khorn).
What Khorns can't do is cover up (mush over) a bad recording. Some other speakers obscure some details (like a singer's rattling necklace that I heard on Klipschorns but missed on all other speakers I tried), and may contribute some harmonically pleasant distortion that will make a bad recording sound "richer." Khorns (and many other horn loaded speakers) are not very "forgiving," and are quite revealing of both music and defects in a subjectively different way than other revealing speakers (such as electrostatics and ribbons).
I once knew a musician who had one set of speakers (all paper cones) to listen to most recordings and FM radio with because they were "forgiving," and a set of horn loaded speakers to listen to recordings of his own acoustical guitar work, because the forgiving speakers could not reproduce the immediacy and "thereness," as he put it, of his guitar.

Klipschorn pros and cons, November 28, 2008
Having kicked around with the audio hobby since the 1950's and known about "the mighty Klipschorn" by reputation since then, finally at the age of 61 I purchased a new pair of them in 2003 (list $7500, I got them for $6500) plus a new Belle Klipsch in '04 to use as a center channel.
Yes, the Klipschorns are big but are surprisingly unobtrusive when snuggled back into their corners as they should be. The sight of the handsome Klipschorns + Belle array together begets audiophile-reverence before even hearing them. But yes also, the Klipschorns are idiosyncratic, "idiosyncratic" being defined as their being merciless in showing up program- and amplifier imperfections and deficiencies.
The Klipschorns are VERY amplifier sensitive. I have run them with at least four home theater receivers, three of which, the newer models, were designed to feed an external powered subwoofer. The fourth, a vintage-1990 obsolescent Pioneer Pro-Logic receiver (VSX-5700X) does not have a powered subwoofer output. To make a long story short, with the three newer amps the Klipschorns sounded lousy, very clear and precise but with no or nil bass, very thin sounding. Reaction: "I paid $6500.00 for THIS?!"
But with the old Pioneer, holy cow! The Klipschorns BLOOMED. Tight pure deep effortless bass like you would not believe, and fine solid crystal-clear sound and imaging all the way up the spectrum. Same speakers, same room but what a difference. It was dramatically and instantly noticeable.
Since the old Pro-Logic Pioneer drives the center channel with only a synthesized signal of approximately AM-radio quality, the Belle is underfulfilled so to speak, but still anchors the center soundstage nicely. I'm happy.

Great Speaker for the right room, June 11, 2007
This is a monster of speaker, and I mean that in many ways. First of course is its size, and second of course is its sound, and lastly is its history! This speaker has been in production for 60 years and it as respected today as when it first came out of Hope AK so many years ago.
The sound is open, powerful, subtle, moving... in a word...involving. And this can be accomplished with very little power as the speaker is very efficient. If you want loud... look no futher. If you want concert realism look no further...if you have a small room and cant utilize the corners...look elsewhere... sounds best with a very clean signal, so amp and source choice is important, but amp power is not so important.
Great for Rock, home theater, and dance music, and very good for everything else. I love to hear Pink Floyd through them as they really bring out the dynamics and energy of the music.
The speakers hold up well over time and you can still get parts to rebuild them.
