Klipsch La Scala’s

When I got my Cornwalls, I talked it over with my wife. We were initially told they were klipschorns, but a picture from the seller told me they were Cornwalls. These are smaller than the Klipschorns, I told my wife. When my son and I were bringing them into my house, I told my wife, they seem bigger than we thought! Then we brought them into the living room. They were huge! Plugged them into an amp, and all drivers were working, so I suggested we try them out for a few weeks, and if she didn’t like them, we would sell them.
Two weeks later, I was playing something we both knew well and loved, and she suddenly tells me, those speakers are keepers! And there they remain. They don’t really dwarf the room once they were in place, and the tops make great lamp stands!

My La Scalas are definitely great lamp stands, or for anything else that might need a place to sit.
I did this too! Never looked back.
I did the -3db mod also, and kept them that way for a couple of years. I switched it back to "stock" recently, and I like it better. The -3db mod reduced the dynamics and "liveliness" of the speakers too much for me. I would like to get or build a pair of horn loaded subwoofers to extend the bass, but I'm pretty happy with them the way they are.
Have you seen the "bass box" DIY addon for La Scalas?

I have one of the table tuba subs with the 8" driver. It blends perfectly and keeps up with the La Scalas.

Time for that wife to get a new house ,I'm fortunate that my wife likes massive 10 foot tall speakers and 200 pound amps ,when we were kids & broke with no garage she used to move her dining room chairs out of the way so I could ride my Triumph Bonneville & Kawasaki KZ-750 up the steps ,across a line of blankets and into our dining room ,we had pocket doors all over the house so she used to call the dining room my garage ,all that changed when we had kids though lol ,she made me strap my AR-9s to studs in the wall so they wouldn't fall on a kid .
