The latest incarnation in an ever-changing array of equipment. The Majestics are the finest speakers I have ever owned (and I've owned PLENTY!) Detailed with the purest, most natural bass I've ever experienced. These are not dynamic like the big Wilsons, but they produce harmonics and textures like no cone speaker can, especially when driven by the Levinson electronics. The big Lev #33s are still the finest amps I have used (this is my 2nd pair) and do not leave me missing tube amps. The Lev. #40 is a wonderful 2-channel preamp, though I am wasting most of its considerable abilities in a mere 2-channel system. The DACS in the 40 are world-class, and sound heavenly mated to the Lev 31.5 transport. VPI's HRX is easy to use and absolute world-class! Analog rules!! I will be selling the 40 to go back to a pure 2-channel pre. My room is 21 x 18 with 11.5' ceilings and is treated with bass traps and panels. I am very happy with the sound from this system, having recently sold an entire Mcintosh reference system, which was, iteslf, awesome, but a touch more "clinical" than the Levinson setup. Frankly, I could have (and should have!) lived with the Mac stuff forever, but the Levinson gear is just a little more textured and natural to my ears.
contact Audiogon membername = cylinderking_1 he has upgraded a pair of Lascala's with the ALK crossovers & other suggested tweaks & loves the improvements.
Congrats on your new KHorns! I imagine that the Mondial gang may have perceived the need for improved crossovers & internal wiring; perhaps they have even attacked the infamous resonance issues. I did all of that when I tweaked my vintage Belles (now only 25 years young, half of my age & still going strong) which are KHorns internally but without the corner shaped cabinet. Wish that they'd get that consumer model Jubilee out to market; I'd really like to hear what they've accomplished based upon your report.
