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.
Are you guys talking about the Jubilee?! If so, indeed Paul designed it, but it I was under the impression that it is an entirely different speaker (certainly on the same scale), and not a redesign of the K'horn. Going to the Klipsch website the K-horn appears to be unchanged. Use the search engine on the site and type in "Jubilee" and see if that is what you are referring to?! Love to see what you are speaking of!
PS I own LaScala's and Heresy's (both vintage with the original metal drivers damped with Dynamat). Absolutely LOVE these speakers with tubes!! I've also owned two sets of Forte's in the past and those were great as well. Of the three, the LaScala sing the sweetest! All are tremendous bargains on the used market.
