Klipsch K- horns/ La Scala and room size

[Nick Danger]

Curious to know how big of a room is needed for a pair of K- horns or La Scalas? Do the La Scala demand corner placement?

 

[laatsch55]

If it's your music room LaScala's would be a better fit. Don't you have a step to the walls down there??

 

[Nick Danger]

May be building a dedicated listeing/ music space, wanna see if I could possibly accomidate corner- loaded horns.

 

[laatsch55]

As long as it wasn't square and you could get 16-20 foot between some K-horns, that'd work...

How far back do you think would be sweet spot from the speakers would be in the room?

 

[laatsch55]

If they were 20 foot, about 10-12....

 

[laatsch55]

Acxtually mine are 25 feet apart and 12 isn't quite enough. They wouyld be a lot happier here if they were 14-15.

 

[Nick Danger]

K- horns sure need some space. How about the La Scala? Do they need to be cornered as well or do you have a bit more leeway with placement?

 

[laatsch55]

The LaScalas you could put on your coffee table...

 

[Nick Danger]

Will the La Scalas work close to the wall or do they need to be a bit more out in the room? Better in corners?

 

[laatsch55]

They would probably have better bass in the corners../.

Here's a local pair for sale on the 'Bay.

That's not to bad Doug..

 

[Nick Danger]

Just looking right now...... lots of options for me once I have a WOPL in the system. Unless something falls into my lap, I am trying not to make any more big purchases until after the New Year.

Sutton has started rebuilding a pair of La Scala's... He was at the house sunday and we worked on them a little... I sent him a text about 45 min ago.... Before I saw this thread telling him to START his...... Rebuilding La Scala's thread !!!!! So maybe he will...

Just buy a new house Doug.....

Just buy a new house Doug.....

I really like where I live and have the space to build a free standing building, but buying something different could be a possibility.

I'd like to be a fly on the wall when you ask your wife to find a new place to accomodate the K-horns....

Probably a lot of us have the same problem. I'm relagated to a 11X15 room for my rig. Wife won't let me have the 27X15 or 22X12 room cause she said I'd just fill it with more shit. Don't really blame her, lost a 16' boat in the garage once. Her nephew came over once and the garage door was up - he asked where the boat was, I answered 'the garage', he said "where?"

 

[laatsch55]

Sounds like my garage. Somewhere under all the boxes is a cherry 1982 Honda Accord LX Hatchback. 92,000 miles and still smells new. Jani kept it very nice inside...

Her response was: "When is that pool getting installed?"

Think a 16 X 13 room would be large enough for K- horns?
