I owned them only a few weeks. The Wife Acceptance Factor is quite low.............couldn't convince her otherwise. History? No clue, just the build date.

Fantastic! I'm used to Apogee Duetta II's so to me they are very "bright" but image like crazy. (typical of horns) I did notice the lower mid "muddiness" but that could have easily been having them directly on the floor. Good detail and very, very easy to drive unlike the Ap's. You may or may not want to re-cap. I'm gonna guess that they have never been opened up. The screw heads looked pristine. Glad you like them!

While I'm not a Klipsch owner, (I have hybrid Apogees) IMO the flat stranded copper from Rat Shack is just fine. In my system I use it on the bass cabinets and Anti-Cables on the MR/Ts (ribbons). Put it this way, I have Zebra cables stored in the garage.

Ya the pricing is taking into consideration the shipping too. I know it's PITA. Figure $25 for me to box them up on top of the shipping. The second zip is in the $125+ range. Oh, one other thing, looking at the screws on the back, I don't think they've ever been touched. Should I use "Minty' or" LQQK!" Rofl.

Looks like around $80 for standard UPS Ground for both. I can probably do better from my work. But use this as a rule of thumb. HBR I believe is Heresy Birch Raw

I have a pair of 1985 HBR's. Condition is G/VG, with minor dings and nicks that would be expected for speakers this age. They are still unfinished/unstained. One cabinet has a water ring on top. One is missing a badge.Price reflects this. All drivers are working (tested). Consecutive serial numbers. Speakers are located in Paradise Ca. (No. Cal) Price SOLD, PENDING or OBO. Checks or Money Orders accepted, no Pay Pal. I will work with buyer to get these shipped, but buyer is responsible for shipping fees/costs. I have access a commercial account, for better pricing on the shipping. Can box, at cost. Thanks for looking.
