    Seeking some friendly guidance

    in Garage Sale

    Hello,

     

    First time poster and electonics novice here looking for some friendly guidance from the experts.  Our Parish was gifted with two pairs of 2002 vintage Klipsch stereo speakers that we would like to sell to raise money for much needed playground improvements for our school.  Is there anyone out there who would be willing to give us some guidance as to a fair market value?  The items are: 

     - two beautiful floor-standing Mahogany Klipschorn speakers in excellent condition.

     - two Klipsch Heresy speakers

     

    thanks so so much for any help y’all can provide.

    Welcome to the forum Tom H.

     

    A lot will depend on your location and the condition of the speakers. Feel free to follow up with pics or additional details!

    WTB- Heresy guts

    Pats, I have a pair of Heresy Gen 1 I would ship as a whole to you for a good price. You can keep or toss the cabinets away, fine by me....sound fantastic though and all parts are intact minus the grills which I have new fabric for but will not include unless you need it.

    Stereo, Amp suggestions for KLF30

    in 2-Channel Home Audio

    Posted

    Similar to the RF-7's the KLF-30, and 20 for that matter sound better with as much clean power as you can give them. I am powering two pair of my 30s with Emotiva XPA-1 500 and 600 watt monoblocks. My third pair is running off an Emotiva XPA-2 with 300 wpc. 

     

    My advice is to find a decent amp, B&K, BGW, Adcom, NAD, Sherbourn among others... and feed them some good quality power on the cheap 

     

    265 wpc for this one, seems to be in good shape too https://www.ebay.com/itm/BGW-750B-750C-Amp-Amplifier-Just-Serviced/303083648660?hash=item4691317694:g:FAkAAOSwL8xcaFep&frcectupt=true

    RP-280F lot of six for $1200 shipped

    There are actually six different six speaker lots listed.

     

    A couple of friends have bought from Sound Distributors from the Chip N Dent pile and ended up quite happy. One fella grabbed a pair of the THX 525 speakers for $399 and only a little corner ding on one of the speakers. Other guy bought a pair of RP-260 towers and the base had a small crack. Might be worth the gamble for someone...plus if they expire, they usually relist even cheaper.

    Emotiva PA-1 class D Amps

    There are several owners in the Emotiva forum that really like them. I personally thought they would flop since they are kind of pricy for only 140 wpc but it seems the ICE power modules they use are pretty high quality and the sound seems superior to most Class D...from what I've heard

    Klipsch Chorus II's and KG4's for sale

    I just alerted two buddies in CT!

     

    Never mind, your price hike just disqualified both of them. I just sold very nice KG-4 for $250 shipped and have seen most Chorus II sell for around $600. You are selling them so you can decide what you want for them. Some people are pretty set at keeping their speakers for sale at unreal prices for over a year because they neither need to sell them, nor need the money. Good luck with your sale

    KLF-30's with KV3 Center $600.00 (Albuquerque)

    Not sure what you are powering the set up with weziewoo but the KLF are very similar to the RF-7 in the way that they thrive with high power. The more you feed them, the more you get out of them. Congrats on your purchase, I love my KLF-30's and KLF-20's. I wish I had a bigger house so I could accommodate more than the eight I have now

    It looks like you might get a chance to hear them. I did not think the guy was going to take my offer but he did. The only reason I bought these is to see if I like them better than my 904/402 combo I have now. If they don't they will be back up for sale.

    Congrats on your purchase. For sure there will be interested parties to both see how you like them...and see if you are going to sell them again!

    That was odd.  It was like some kind of parallel development to Klipsch was going on, but only some theatre owners were aware of it.  How have we never heard of any of this?

     

    And it sure looks like those speakers for sale are not true La Scalas, but some kind of hybrid, which might even sound better than actual La Scalas. 

    I agree, I was shocked just now to see that post. How was this secret kept...lol. All of the speakers offered seem to have higher power ratings and higher efficiency than the regular Klipsch. Very cool...all of the hidden gem reviews and articles are a plus!
