Bump and price drop for forum members: Black Satin KLF-30 w/boxes $850 sold Black RF-83 : $1400 CL sale pending Thanks for looking.

Your right, it is a picture of a vertical Cornwall (stock photo from Klipsch). The photo was to show the shorthorn is about the size of the vertical Cornwall, I just have shorthorn. Thank you for clarifying.

Weekend bump. I'm reconsidering selling the shorthorn.

The shorthorn is about 24.5" x 36.5", it is about the same size as the Cornwall. They look similar too, at least similar to the orginal cornwall photo on the Klipsch website: For reference:

I have been very lucky (and persistent) and bought/sold along the way to finance my next purchase(s). I have gotten some good deals along the way, but most of the time, I had to drive long distance for them. I did pick them all up in a Prius with the exception of the Klipschorns. But, it is a fun hobby and I have met a lot of great people including several purchases from other forum members. I do have a bit of an OCD problem. I got a few speakers, then I thought it would be interesting to have the entire vintage series (heresy, quartet, forte, chorus, cornwall, la scala, and klipschorn), still missing a few. The shorthorn was kind of a bonus and is in amazing condition. I love the Forte, I think they are often overlooked. However, now my patient wife needs a newer vehicle and some Christmas funds, so a few have to go. Good luck with your search, where are you located? I also listed on CL and was contacted by a person in Seattle, WA asking about the KLF-30s. I guess they are hard to find lately.

Weekend bump.

Well, many would say it is surprising that I still have a wife. 18 months ago, I didn't have a single Klipsch speaker. Since then, I have driven thousands of miles and currently have over 13 pair and I have alrdeay sold several pairs (mostly to fund my next purchase). She has been very patient, so it is time to give back a little. I will still have plenty left and it will help score some valueable wife points.
