  1. Hi coytee, which model is the Klipschorn Jubilee? I checked some sites but there seem to be different models. Are they the 535? Some have top mounted tweeters. Thanks! You keep butting in I may just learn something!
  2. Thanks Mark. You're right. I did tell him that this was the D version not B or C. He said, "what are you talking about? What's B, C, D?" After hearing that I knew I was wasting my time. I will find out how much a new pair of walnut laquer Klipschorns cost and try save up the money.
  3. Now that's more like it. If the new Klipschorns weren't so much money I would buy new. Thanks again!
  4. Thanks all of you for some very important advice. I did not go through with the purchase after all and I'm glad I didn't. It helps to stop and think before acting on an impulsive purchase. These Klipshorns were recently oak veneered on both the front and the sides (no side grills) but had no riser between top and base bin. They were also fir not birch. I am located in Toronto, Canada. I will keep looking for a B series Klipschorn, the type of veneer or finish isn't as important as the condition. Having owned Cornwalls a few years back made me realize that with Klipsch, you don't just hear music but get an emotional realism you can feel. Thanks again, guys for you input and I will keep looking. At least will turn up eventually.
  5. Hi everyone, another new guy here. I'm hoping you can help me. I have a chance to buy a vintage Klipschorn (1972, serial number 4K180 and 4K181) These are the basic decorator's model, K-D-FR and I was led to believe they aren't as popular as the B series with risers and grilles on the sides. They were originally raw fir but have recently been veneered in light oak and are in mint shape with original parts inside (AA crossover). My question is, are these worth buying or should I wait until a b series model comes up? I have a feeling I'm paying more for the veneer than the speakers ($3,800). Thanks guys for any help you can give me here. Tony.
