Hi there, I have very limited knowledge about this but the original owner had them since the late 60's. The factory is said to have burned down, so these were only built for a few years. Thanks.

Thank you klipsch community, this is no longer for sale

Have you ever heard a pair of KLF series speakers? The 20's and 30's are phenomenal sounding speakers and you don't need to worry about a sub. Plus they are three way which is nice in a tower. They weight upwards of 100 lbs but offer 102db efficiency. You can use a monster amp or a 20 watt amp and they sound great either way..
Hear you there but where can I hear these KLF? I need to start auditioning, hope they come in walnut / cherry (just a fetish)

I was looking at these as well. But, on one of the sellers pages they stated that there is 'no warranty' on the 'open box' ones. I'm not sure about the 'B Stock' veneer 7's. Don't know if this matters if you're used to buying used anyway. Just a thought.
Just now I got curious on the RF7's, I will do some more research.

As you say you have not heard some of the speakers we are suggesting. I own three pair of KG4's and every other speaker mentioned at this point blows them away.

Thanks Tim, forgive my construct, I was merely saying that most new speakers I like are way above my $2000 budget

Stop doing this inverse speaker setup
Haha, you probably are right.. during that time I was craving for more decibel but those KG4's are intended to be given away to my father in law, where they are now.

If you don't mind used you can find one heck of a pair of speakers for two G's. Belles, La Scalas, Chorus 1 and 2, Cornwalls, Forte 1 and 2, KLF-20 or KLF-30. You may even find a decent pair of used Pro speakers.
Most of my gears are used, don't have budget for new ones that I liked

Where are you located?
If I had $2000 to spend on Klipsch.
I would be patient and get a pair of La Scala, KLF-30, and Forte II or Chorus II and maybe a sub for the La Scala.
Given a little patience and depending on where you live (and being willing to drive), you should be able to get all 3 pairs for $2000 (I have).
I would let the music/mood determine which pair to hook up on a given night.
The mid horn on the La Scala is hard to pass up. The punch of the KLF-30s bass is great.
IMO, the Forte/Forte II have the best output vs. cabinet size ratio of the extended heritage family.
The Chorus II are more of a good thing vs. the Forte/Forte II.
From Chicago here, I am relatively new to this place / country though
I agree that having numerous speaker has their advantages, hence I have small speaker for casual listening, medium speaker for non loud listening and big speakers for those moment I want to shout, sing or dance along with the music.

A new stereo pair of RF-7 II are currently available from authorized dealers on eBay for $1,799 including shipping (USA). I recommend the cherry veneer.
Thanks, don't know if this beats my current speaker volume wise, what other advantage will this bring (I obviously haven't hear this yet)?

Hi All,
Not sure if this has been covered here but I wanted to get views and opinions from you guys on how much speaker can I get for $2000 budget for 2 channel audio?
I currently have no specifics other than it should be
a. full range / room filling (my room size is about 8m x 5m)
b. dynamic and
c. refine sounding (which presents music as a whole and does not call attention to itself)
Please feel free to chime in your "want speaker list" or "have/had speaker list" for this budget.
Offers are welcome as well
Thanks in advance

I wondering because I've lost deals because I analyze things to ever lovin' death and then someone smarter than me picks them up. After I lost a nice set of Crites Type AA XO's, I made my decision that if something like that came up again I wouldn't think, I would simply pull the trigger. That got me off paralysis by analysis and I ended up with a real nice XO.
