Loved the article, I’m very interested in the history of the Klipshorn and Klipschorn tweeters as used in the original garage and house music clubs in New York in the 1970’s.
Does anyone know what it would sound like if you hooked up 2 Klipshorns to each channel of a stereo amp ? Certainly be interesting

Congratulations for the article! I really consider myself as newbie about audio stuff, but your article is excellent and really clear.

I’m 30 years old, but I always has think in stereo; now that I know about Klipschorn, i believe that I would like test it.
But, I have a doubt. Klipsh only sell it in US, right?

I write from Mexico City.

I wouldn’t give it back, they’d have to break down the door and I wouldn’t let it go without a fight.

However, I probably would order a second to keep it company and just think of it as a 50% discount.

Given my choice though, I’d go vintage, onstead of Herritage, not because they sound better (or worse), but I continue to try and deny the existence of MDF as well as it would be cheaper.

Yes!… great article on mono listening (and vintage designed gear). In addition, there are lots of great recordings, especially Jazz, that was recorded in mono to begin with. Furthermore, I live in an area where I listen to some of the hard to get FM public radio stations… best received and listened to in mono.
