  1. Here’s a third listing, I did not contact, https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/ele/d/mesa-klipschhorn-old-speakers/7245843714.html I never sent this one an email. It. It could be legitimate. I own Klipschorns. I don’t need another pair. Someone here can contact and maybe get lucky.
  2. Here’s the second listing I contacted and got no reply either, https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/clt/d/sun-city-west-klipsch-speakers/7243939234.html They’re not even Forte II speakers. Why do people put fake listings on Craigslist? I wonder if sometimes they copy photos off the internet instead of taking photos of what they’re actually selling and don’t reply once they’re sold. Though I’d guess, if it seems too good to be true, it’s probably fake.
  3. No reply back to me either. I also got no reply from another seller of Klipsch speakers that are still listed and there’s a third listing that seems to be to low to believe. Sometimes I wonder if they’re just getting emails to send stuff too, because sometimes I started to get junk emails that I’ve had to stop by spamming them.
  4. Beautiful units and restorations seti and rigma! I owned a Fisher X 100 once. It was in great condition. I wish I still had it. I sold it to purchase something else. It was one of the best midrange units I’ve owned. My wife plays piano and she said and I agreed it with my Klipschorns sounded like a real piano.
  5. I sent you a PM about them Oicu812.
  6. Thank you RandyH000 for your answers. I soldered in new diaphragms in my K-55-V around fifteen years ago.
  7. Thank you wvu80. I’ve considered the crossover and tweeter upgrade you did and recommend and will still be considering them after I build my new top cabinets. I’m sure the improvement is large.
  8. Thank you wvu80, I can’t hear the dip in the frequency response between 4500 Hz and 6000 Hz in my V mids, but have only heard mine, so maybe I don’t know better, so considering upgrading though mine sound okay, but improvements welcomed. I always appreciate everyone’s replies and advice.
  9. Thank you MookieStl, I soldered in new diaphragms in my K-55-V around fifteen years ago. They’ve not been abused. They should still be okay. I was considering replacing them with the solder type, but wondering if the K-55-M were better. I’m okay with how mine sound, but would consider upgrading for a reasonable low cost. I replaced the K-77 diaphragms then too and bought Bob Crites’s A/AA, so the caps are good. Michael Crites said the can caps in my crossovers are good for twenty years. I’m building new tops for them now because I bought a decorator set years ago in rough cosmetic condition. I built tops for them then, but building a second set of tops now with changes, so I’m considering upgrading the mids and tweeters. I don’t want to spend a lot though. They sound good now.
  10. Thank you Dave A, I bought Bob Crites’s AA, caps are still good. These are Klipschorns, mid brace not needed. Thank you for your PM, I’ll consider it.
  11. I have the the old K-55-V divers with the push pin connectors in my 1978 Klipschorns. Can you replace a K-55-V with a K-55-M on an AA crossover? Will the more modern K-55-M sound better? What’s the difference between the two?
  12. Let me know when you’re selling the Crites CT-120 tweeters. I may be interested in buying them.
  13. Beautiful! How’d you do the piano black finish?
  14. That’s not good. I was thinking about using that thread to build some someday. Why were they erased and who erased them? Here it is, or was:
  15. That’s what I use. I solder banana plugs on it for ease of hook up and changing speakers.

  17. Wow! They look amazing! You’re very talented!
