Amazed at these Klipsch KG 3.2 Speakers

I have a Kenwood KR 5400 receiver and Marantz 5 disc CD changer. Been looking for some good vintage speakers to match to it. I ended up with a pair of Klipsch KG 3.2 speakers I managed to pick up for $75. The cabinets are a little rough, but the grills are pristine, as are the cones. I plugged them in, put in a Journey CD, and OMG! To say these sound amazing is an understatement. No matter the volume, crystal clear with chest thumping bass when you want it. No subwoofer, no other speakers needed. These are incredible. What have I been missing???? Now to find a turntable.

Purchased a pristine pair in 2013 for $135, auditioned them for my brother in law with twin 12" subs next to them. A few minutes in John asked to hear them without the subs, the subs weren't on lol. Gave them to my youngest son along with his grandfather's Pioneer SX-1010 receiver.

The KG3.2's are highly respectable speakers! I recently passed on a set listed for $200 in favor of a set of CV AT-12's at the same price, only because the AT-12's went down to 28hz vs 36hz on the Klipsch. I don't think I could have lost in that decision either way and I still wish I could have bought both! Klipsch are also noted as a very efficient speaker!
 
One of my best friends recently got some model 5.5

They sure look like the ones in post #2 except black cabinets.

What's the difference?

Wait- I see the drivers are not the same in the 3.2, they look the same size in the 5.5
