(You may find that placement is more of an issue with 4's) I would classify the 4's as Jazz/classical finesse speaker as opposed to the 4.2's a more powerful rock and roll oriented in-your-face speaker, begging to be pushed louder and louder and cranking out room shattering. The two-way KG Series KG 4.2 floorstanding loudspeaker was first introduced in 1992 and manufactured by Klipsch until 1994. The better-sounding one runs with a Yamaha HTR 5840 receiver, the one upstairs is with a Marantz NR 1604 A/V receiver. The one downstairs sounds much nicer than the one upstairs.

The bass was tight, but a little muddy until I raised them off the floor by two inches. How did they sound? The mids and highs were clean, but not overly bright or forward. Some people donвЂ™t like horn-loaded designs, but Klipsch definitely had time to refine this technology, and they sounded quite nice. During that week I had an opportunity to try them with a variety of music, and found them to be quite musical. He left them with me for a week until she went to Vegas with her sister. These KG 4.2 speakers were on loan from my buddy, Bill who didnвЂ™t want his wife seeing him taking them into their den. What the *$#%$%!!? all I wanted to find out was what a Klipsch Tractrix Horn is, and I got an earful of speakergeek technobable. Technically speaking, the Khorn's folded bass 'corner horn' can be described as a bifurcated trihedral exponential wave transmission line.
