Klipschorn-Klipsch-The Loft NYC

I am no audiophile expert - but i do care immeasurably for music and strive to present it in its most natural form within my dancespace. I am considering purchasing a pair of Khorns for use in a 10m square room - concrete floor and walls - the space is a dance space and high volume is essential...clarity taking precedence over bass extension.

I would be very grateful to anyone who could confirm that these are the same model Klipsch that David Mancuso & Alex Rosner used at the legendary 'Loft' in NYC during the 70s/80s.

I would also be very grateful to anyone willing to give me advice in terms of amplification: I am considering restoring a couple of giant Manley Monoblocs (i need to purchase the valves)

many thanks - Dominic (London)

perfectly square room will suck no matter what speaker you use, or where you place them. Standing waves will eat your lunch.

Maybe if the place is full of soft bodies (people) it will work out OK.

Two Khorns and about 20 watts will make everyone in there go deaf. But with smiles on their faces.
