Niles SI-1230 12 Stereo Channel Whole-House Power Amplifier, for parts only. 30 watts @ 8ohms (40watts @ 4 ohms) x 12 Stereo channels, bridgeable 80 watts x 6 Stereo channels @ 8 ohms only. I tested this unit as far as I could without schematics, the power mains are good, each amplifier module has its own main power supply, there are no signs of burnt components or evidence of overheating anywhere in this unit. It is not in "protect mode" (status led is green) so it is highly likely the 12 individual stereo modules are OK. The amplifier design is such that if any one amplifier module is bad, the front panel status light will illuminate red and the rest of the amplifier modules will continue to function as normal. The pre-amp positive supply regulator is working (+28 volts) the negative regulator is at +11 volts (should be -28 volts) where the fault likely lies. As all channels are not passing the signal.This amplifier employs cascading inputs and outputs. Each channel can be driven individually, or all at once via a main bus or in any combination thereof using the dip switches and separate RCA jacks on the rear panel. Each pair of channels can be bridged up to 6 stereo channels x 80 watts (at 8 ohms only). Or 24 mono channels x 30 watts at 8 ohms, 40 watts at 4 ohms. There is some minor scratches on the case and the left front conner has a little of the paint rubbed off. The cabinet is in pretty decent over-all condition.It would be a fun and rewarding project for someone handy with a solder iron, I found Instructional videos on youtube. The operating manual is available free, on line.$50 + shipping from 03870

Vintage Racon Electric Company 32 ohm, 12", 2-way coaxial Theater Speaker, 1940's, cast aluminum frame, Anlico magnet. Hemp paper cone. This was likely made by Western Electric (Altec) in the early 40's for a movie theater application. It has a carrying handle, it weighs 26 pounds. The surround was restored professionally by New England Speaker. They don't make the exact size surround this speaker needed, so the NES staff cut down a slightly larger surround. It does not effect the sound quality. They thoroughly tested it with a 20 watt class A-B tube amp and it sounds beautiful. This is perfect for low wattage tube amps, A class "A" amplifier would be a perfect match for this driver. $150 + shipping from 03870 takes it home.

I bought a pair of K-107-Ti tweeter horns from Klipsch factory thinking I might want a spare on hand for my Cornwal III's. I never needed them and have moved on to Cornwal IV's
I believe I paid $78 ea + shipping, it is an open box but not used other than to test them out. I'll take half price, you pay the freight. Also bought replacement diaphragms from simply speakers for $40/ea, unopened box. I'll take $35/pair.

What specific networks do you have?
Oh, tough day already, you are looking for the ALK information. Extreme slope @ 5800 + 600hz
Selling them separate as most buyers of the Speakers are not the same people who want the ES x-overs.
I want $750, you pay the shipping. Paypal.

These were purchased about five-(six? ) years ago. I use a 50 watt tube amp to drive them, so no clipping issues. They are in 9/10 condition. Slight blemish were a rubber ball removed the sheen on one cabinet about the size of a silver dollar. No discoloration of the wood, but the finish is just plan missing. You have to look at 15º angle to the sun to even see it. otherwise you wouldn't know there was an issue. I'm am looking for $2,500 obro. Original boxes and papers.b you pay shipping from either 01862. or 03870. If you live in southern New England I could meet you half way. Payment via paypal.

Update on the sale of the Cornwal III. After changing the cross overs back to stock, I noticed a blemish on one of the cabinets. An exercise ball was touching the side and removed the finish about the size of a silver dollar. It is not discolored, and you can't even notice it unless you look at a 15º angle to the sun. As a result, I am lowering the price to $2,500.

I am listening to the CW IV as I type this and I'll tell you that you will not be disappointed. GLWS........

I just finished building our retirement cottage (900sq') . If you remember the 1950's style hifi entertainment centers, they would build the speakers into the wall surrounded by bookshelves for the records, pictures and sculptures. The speakers being even with the face of the shelves. I built the room specifically to accommodate the Cornwal's

Duffi,
It may be you are still on some probationary period???? Your messages should be coming through.
I think $750 (half price) is more than fair price. The reason I am selling them separate is most people want the Cornwal III's stock and/or they are not willing to cough up the extra $.
The new Cornwal IV has a much improved x-over, so why mess with them (and voiding the warrenty)?
These weigh about 38-40 lbs. Quite the impressive bit of engineering. See. http://www.alkeng.com/
Click on "Klipsch loudspeaker upgrades" > "extreme slope" scroll down for images. They are bigger than the picturse suggest.
I followed Al's recomendation of 400hz and 5,800 hz.
I waited 3 months for him to build, test and ship them. You will be blown-away by the clarity.
They ship from 01862
I have the old paperwork, so I can see how much they cost to ship eight years ago.
Paypal is the safest payment method for both of us, if you chose to complete this sale.
I sent you a private message. let's see if that comes through

Thank you all for the feed back. I needed this to get a feel for the real market. No better place than here.
I will sell them at $2,600, without mods, buyer pays shipping.
Original shipping boxes and paperwork.
Extra set of tweeter horns, new in box.
ALK x-overs at half price, $750 (will not split up set) again, buyer pays the freight.
I'll hang onto the Crite woofers for another project.
If you all need pictures, please respond to this post. I am traveling, so it may take a couple days to get back to you.
Again, thank you for your input.

Has anyone posed on ebay? I can't understand their fee structure.

I am looking to purchase Cornwal IV, the Cornwal III need to be sold. The cabinents are Walnut with stands in excellent condition.
ALK extreme slope crossovers are installed with Bob Crites cast aluminum woofers. I saved all the old parts for those of you who perfer the stock sound.
I will consider selling the crossovers separate: $1500/pair new, will sell for $1000. Bob Crites woofers $250/pair
Sold listings on ebay for stock III's range from $3k- 4K, with $1700 in upgrades I am leaning more towards $4,000, unless you want an all stock unit. I'll knock off $800..
Shipping from new england will be at least $400. Original double layer boxes included.

same question.... are they still for sale?
No, perhaps sometime in the future when I am forced to downsize, but today is not that day.
AKL still makes them for Cornwals at three price points.
-
Why did you unload your Cornwalls?
Retiring and moving to smaller digs, but haven't moved yet. I Haven't picked out new speakers yet, but they will probably be towers or monitors with a sub. Wife was never happy with (the size of) the Cornwals though she did like the sound. Our house was already small 1,200 squares, the new place will be a little more than half that. 700-800 squares.

Trying to talk my wife into it. Wish me luck.
Good luck with that.
My technique has always been to sell something else to dust up my tracks.
She's a smart girl and knows the numbers don't add up, but at least she knows I'm trying :-)
-
I'm interested. Do you have the original boxes that they were shipped in from Al?
Brian
Al sent them to me in plain double-walled cardboard boxes, wrapped in multiple layers of newsprint then bubble wrap plus instructions.
They were two packages of about 40 pounds each delivered, as I remember. The magic number you don't want to go over is 70 pounds.
I do a lot of ebay, so they will get to you safe and sound.
