  1. I will agree with @RandyH001. These are overachievers I have a pair of regular 250's (in battle dress) and I would not sell them for under 350.00. The natural wood finish and condition these are in make these rare. These will smoke a regular pair of Heresy's, at least they do to my ear's. YMMV and your listening style may be different than mine but in my experience these are great outdoor PA speakers that will get loud and stay clear through the frequency response range.

     

    Pair these with either a pair of KP-480's, KPT-884, KP-682 or KPT-684 sub and they will easily handle a small to medium size venue.

    Which model of Tannoy? I'm looking for a passive PA speaker that would be good for small event spaces (800 - 1200 square feet). I have a pair of KP 301-IIs, but they're a bit of overkill for small spaces, (not to mention size/weight!).

    What about the KP 250 or 201 for small PA use? I have a set and they more than fit the bill for that size.

    🤗Placed an order today for a pair of Cornwall IVs in black ash, I have wanted a pair sense I first heard them in the early 80s! Retiring later this year and thought it would be a good way to start my new journey.

    Nice I have yet to hear those but many here seem to love them, a great way to ride off into the sunset! Speaking of sunset I see you are in Naples, I lived in Bonita Springs for awhile in my teenage years, Naples is a wonderful area or at least was in those days.

  4. Having heard both to me it isn't a fair match, jub was everything PWK and Roy learned about the Khorn and to me it shows. The ability to go active offers up a endless amount of options to tailor the sound. Would be cool if Klipsch offered different "Master Tunings" to use with the jubs DSP on the consumer version much like Buchardt has with their active A500.

  5. @John Moore my dad uses a set of 301's out in his shop although not open to the elements the area is not temperature controlled. They are sitting on a couple "corner stands" to keep them off the concrete slab. Those corner stands have casters so when he is doing yard work or piddling around outside he rolls them to the doors and turns em up!

    Sold. I beat out some guy from CA. Listening impressions incomplete because of a hurriedly cobbled crossover, but confirming all drivers work. I will design both a passive and an active network using a Yamaha 2060. I'll also add a DaveA LMAHL super tweeter. Only then will I judge the sound. I've always wanted a "salad bowl" and a STRAIGHT AXIS Midbass horn. I may sell off the Seismic Sub, as I have too many subs already, but it's too soon to tell.

    I got my popcorn ready Claude....these look very interesting.

    The only reason that these haven't sold is because the majority of members haven't heard them.  If they had they would be gone long ago. 

    Fact! These are awesome sounding speakers, dont let the size fool you they do not have as large of a footprint as the KPT-904.

  8. I can't help with the serial numbers but might be able to answer questions 2.

     

    Tweeter Assembly = K79K or K79KP for 2nd version

    Midrange = K53K or K66E for the 2nd version

    Woofer = K42E or K42KP for the 2nd version

     

    These are great little PA speakers pair these with a 684/682 sub and you will have a very hard to beat PA for the money.

    AGREE!! Do you by chance have a pic of these? There were two different looking LF drivers for these I think. One has a ribbed cone and the other is smooth. If these have the ribbed cones I would buy them for sure as the ones I've had I preferred the ribbed cone LF driver.
