    • When I see Mr Delgado's youtube again, going to put it here. Heritage Jubilee... Cool
    • Definitely agree with that. Versatile... thanks!
    • Thanks for the insight and help deciphering these Cornwalls.  Great to see a strong following and such detailed info still exists.   They will be my first set other than a Klipsch surround setup on my PC.  I also noticed from the grill fading these are vertical configuration, and have been reading up on their origin as a center speaker that later sold in stereo pairs due to market demand.  Not sure I’ll have room to lay them on their side, or if it will even be that noticeable to my well worn ears.  Either way, after decades in storage they will be a project to refurbish for sure.  
    • Building the walls with Roxul added inside will improve the sound of the music in the room and reduce the amount of sound traveling to the other side because the mineral wool absorbs air vibrations, therefore behaving similar to a bass trap. Adding Green Glue and a second layer of drywall reduces sound transmission to the other parts of the house and helps the music listening room by reducing the wall vibrations and resonances. Ideally both methods are installed together during construction.
    • @Babet Double check that your speaker wire polarity is correct, before trying to change anything. Make sure the positive and negative wires are attached to the proper terminals at the amp and the speakers. If one speaker is out of phase, that condition will reduce the bass response.
    • The 15 does stand for a 15" woofer.  Early on a few were built with 12" woofers.  Without reviewing 100's of pages of records in detail, it appear at first glance that none were done after about 1963.  I've never seen one.
    • To see previous and current transactions, I would recommend monitoring https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/forum/63-garage-sale/, as well as eBay.  We have mid-50's stock Khorns playing in our visitors Center.  They always impress, so 1969 should be, at the least, "respectable".  Considering that new ones are $18,000, I wouldn't think they should go for less than $2000 each, assuming they are in good condition.  But current value is not my forte (pun intended).
    • I don’t see any pics so can’t comment on the condition or finish.
    • Actually in that era 15 on the tag just meant it had a 15” woofer.  
    • No, they are the best balanced bike I’ve ever ridden.  Steering is super quick, the suspension responds instantly to any bumps.
