2016 will be the 70th Anniversary, so I'm hoping to see some interesting new wood choices in about 2 years.

Klipsch 2 way p series have a really ragged top end above 9 khz, where the older Heritage series before the ceramic drivers and 3rd ordered was almost smooth as glass. The newer heritage series has a slight peak at or around 6 khz that add just a touch of zip to recordings, but nothing like the P series. Plus they are asking the P-series woofers to reach to high and cover to much bandwidth. The P woofers may have a little lower distortion on the lowest two octaves, but the systems just don't have the dynamic output the Heritage speakers have. I'll take a pair of Cornwalls any day followed by the Kornerhorns with a Belle or La Scala as a center speaker over the P series. The money you'll save on power using the Heritage speakers will pay for the center amp.

I have compared the Palladiums to the K-horns in Hope. The Palladiums are different, but not good enough to get me to swap out my K-horns.

I should have said 3 way not 2 way! Thanks for publishing the time line. The Dope from Hope was a nice read, too. I even went back and found my Copies Paul gave me. I hadn't seen them since the late 70's.
