  1. Piece of cake, just do it.  An ALTEC buddy had to saw his A4 dual-15" 210 bass horns in half to get them upstairs to his apartment.

    Awesome project, lots of helpers. Marantz 7 driving Model 9 One-Eyed Monsters. Literally took your breath away in a 12'x16' room!

  2. After 12+ years, my favorite is stacked KG4's + SUB-12's.  I have ceiling corner locations on the short wall, with the stack on top of Forte' II's.

    I invert the bottom KG4's to produce a line-array of four 8" between horns near the ceiling and at seated ear-level.  Room coverage is spectacular, and easily throws 30' into my kitchen/office. Titanium HF diaphragms from Midwest Speaker.  Parallel wiring - series sounds awful - be careful of 2Ω load! ADCOM 7400 100W/ch handles them OK, 200W/ch GFA-555 is much better. Friends love it, newbies are awed by the gigantic immersive soundfield.

    You can easily build this for under $1200 at current prices.  Photos to your direct email, they are all way over 2MB!  Good luck!

  3. Looks like Google is killing this because it can’t spy on you!  All their other Home devices have microphones inside!

    Just ordered 3 direct from Gurgle at $15 + tax w/ free shipping.  This will be the end of a great product.

    It beats all my analog and HDRadio tuners, and Spotify Premium on direct A/B shootouts!

    I'm NOT selling these, sorry I jumped the gun without pointing toward Google.com!

  4. Hello Moray James -

    No worries sir, no refund necessary, DCR = 8.3Ω.  Surface is extremely sticky (?) so I won't try a Q-tip!

    I will keep them as spares for the dozens of vintage Klipsch speakers I've put into friend's music rooms.

    In the interest of transparency, you may want to post photos in your next ad - to avoid misunderstandings.

    FYI, I have 100% positive feedback on AudiogoN & eBay for 15+ years, 100% on PayPal & USAudioMart too.

    Happy Listening to you and all the Klipsch Forum members in 2019!

  5. One owner pair in Minneapolis in great condition. 96 dB @ 1 watt,  34-20,000 Hz +/- 3dB.

    The 34 Hz bass extension without boom and the Tractrix horn coverage are spectacular.

    I measured the system resonance at 37 Hz, confirming the accuracy of the Klipsch specs.

    Dropped to $275 w/ Free PayPal for Klipsch Forum members, less than half the $850 MSRP.

  6. Decided I can't match that fabulous bonfire!  Oak CF-2's are available at $295 in Edina, MN -

    where you can compare them with Forte' II's, Quartet's, single or stacked inverted KG4's on

    ADCOM power w/instant A/B/C speaker GFS-6 switching, on multiple spectrum analyzers.

    Bring your music on CD or digital, I have 1/8" & RCA inputs on my mixer.
