  1. Update: I fired them back up and had some distortion in the sound on one of them. The bass and lows were coming through fine but the singing sounded muffled. I did some troubleshooting that I found online and connected the speaker wire directly to the K55's. The singing came back through like normal from there. I imagine this is some sort of crossover issue. 

  2. Alright I took these off Craigslist for a couple of weeks.  Spent some time today cleaning them up.  I used an Old English Dark Wood cleaner and man they cleaned up nicely.  I took some new pictures and set them up for listening.  I'm sitting here now listening to them and man are these things awesome!  I still don't have the space for them but I can see why they draw big money.  I will post a new Craigslist ad and put a link on here, thanks again for all the help.

    I would suggest you pull them from CL, sit on it for a week.  Then relist them at a price a little higher than you expect to get, and be prepared to negotiate down to your bottom line price.

     

    If someone says they are going to have to update the crossovers, immediately drop your price $100, the cost of a Crites rebuild kit for Khorns.

     

    Use good high quality pictures and clean the speakers as best you can.

     

     

    That's going to be my plan, already pulled them from Craigslist.  I'm going to clean them up a little and take some better pictures.  Another question, wouldn't most people that are interested in these be on a forum like this?  Are there any other boards I should post these on?

  4. You guys are a lot of help, thanks for chiming in.  $2000 was my target from the beginning.  I've had several trade offers close to that but nothing I've been interested in or something I thought I could sell easier.  I feel like at least one of my offers is from someone that's going to drive a little ways to pick them up, do some upgrades and flip them.  Like I said, I really just want to get a fair price out of them, not trying to give them away.  I really do appreciate you folks though.

  5. They haven't sold on Craigslist and I found my way here.  What should I expect to get out of these realistically if I want to move them pretty soon?  The stain job isn't perfect but not terrible either, definitely a diy job.  Any help would be appreciated.  I want to recover the space they're in but not give them away, thanks.

  6. I have a sequential pair of Klipschorns that I inherited from my uncle when he passed away.  I had them in a large bonus room for about 5 years and they worked great.  We moved and my bonus room has became a toy room so I have no room for them.  I have very little knowledge  about them and estimated my price based on what I see on eBay and Craigslist.  I've also asked a few folks with way more knowledge than me.  I welcome any more knowledge and offers.  From what I've read online they're from 1979.  I know my uncle had someone refinish them in a dark walnut stain but they were Birch Raw originally. Would it be worth it to me to sand them down and return to their original state?  Is my asking price way off?  I don't think I'd want to venture into shipping them but I'll listen to anything.  Thanks in advance.  It won't let me upload all the pics, I have a Craigslist ad with some more.  https://fayetteville.craigslist.org/ele/6016690125.html
