Here are pictures of the back sides of the Stephens. Here is the other.

I have a matched pair removed from Consecutive numbered Klipschorn Bass Bins, circa 1957. What might they be worth? They are in excellent condition. , will photograph both and post tomorrow, Saturday 11-12-11

Anybody know the current value for a pair of Stephens Tru-Sonic 103LX woofers in blue baskets, 15" woofer. They are both in mint condition.

I have two mint Electro-Voice T-350 Tweeters, neither of them still have the decals on them, is there a place that carries such an item for restoration. They were in a box in storage and now the stickers are missing from both. They work perfect, what a difference over the Electro-Voice T-35. I have a McIntosh Preamp C-41 $1500 if anyone is interested

I am looking to see what the differences are between the 6HD and the 8HD horns. I believe the Klipschorns use a 6HD ?

After my last really cool find, I stumbled across a gentleman that had a pair of Klipschorns covered up in the corners, sheets covering them were very dusty, like they had been on them for years, maybe? I had met a gentleman regarding a stereo receiver that I was interested in buying, Denon AVR-5800. He was in his late 60's and said he traveled alot with his fifthwheel spending alot of time in Arizona and flying to florida. He said he decided to sell the receiver as he rarely had used it and didn't want it to get stolen. I loved the receiver, it was minty new, and in talking I asked what he had hidden in the corners under the sheets, hoping they were large speakers. He said they were Klipsch speakers. I asked if he was going to sell them. He told me that if I wanted a package deal, he would sell me the receiver and the klipsch speakers for $1000 (the receiver was being sold to me for $500, which was a stellar deal). I noticed the sheets were covered in dust and must have been covered for some time. I uncovered them and there sat a most beautiful pair of Klipschorns, They were the newer model that has the top that looks separate from the bottom, I took him up on the package deal. Now I have 3 Klipschorns and an Electro-voice Patrician IV. I am almost done with the Patrician, finishing it to look like the Klipschorn that it came with, in Baltic Birch and new speaker fabric from Wendalls Fabrics for the Klipschorn and the Patrician IV, looks nice. Will post photos soon. One in every corner of my 35'x25' theater room.

I am a Klipsch man through and through, love everything about them. I was looking at the Altec's as an investment. I currently have the Klipschorn and Patrician IV in my livingroom. I just had my KSP-300 amplifiers rebuilt and ready to put them up for sale, I love them but no room. Jerry

Thanks everybody for the quick and informative message. I see your point after reading the reviews on those speakers. I can always trust my friends in the Klipsch forum to assist and keep a brother out of hot water, these certainly could be a money pit. Jerry

There is a posting "For Sale" on these speakers, but according to the seller they were never mass produced and therefore do not have a model number. Seller stated: They were made for the major Altec dealers and only 12 pair were ever produced He said they were at the entrance to a high end Altec Store in 1990 for $12,000. They are 72" tall, 19" wide, 26" deep in Teak cabinets. They have carbon fiber cones, you could swivel the center of the speaker and adjust the soundstage on the fly without having to move the 440 pound speaker. Each tower had a 5 channel integrated amp. If I could identify these maybe they are a good buy at $1800 for the pair. This may or may not be a chance of a lifetime to own a set of Altec Lansing speakers of this calibre.

Larry, I am having the same problem with my KSP-300 Hummmmmmmmm. I was wondering if you could send me a copy of that service manual that Klipsch emailed to you. Thank you, Oregon Tubes
