  4. Thanks guys. Still available.
  5. The GR-Research "Super-V" is a truly special speaker with unparalleled audiophile performance. It has 97db sensitivity and is an easy 8 ohm load. They can be driven easily with even the lowest wattage amplifiers because it only has to drive the upper coaxial driver. The two 12" SERVO controlled subs in the bottom of each speaker are powered by their own amplifier. There is no other speaker available at ANY price point with better sounding bass response. The Super-V is not only super fast and controlled by the SERVO system, but also plays flat to 20Hz and is -3db down in the teens. The subs also play up to 200hz to blend perfectly in any atmosphere. No other open baffle speaker on the market has that level of performance. "Steven Stone from the Absolute Sound says: Greatest Bargain - The GR Research room... And, Most Significant Product Introduction... These speakers have won numerous awards including "Best in Show" at RMAF 2010-2011. The speakers are finished in a Black Walnut with an antiqued red edging. These pictures don't do them justice. Cash is king but I am always willing to listen to possible trades... I am located in Charleston SC.....Price $3500
  6. Thanks guys. I seem to behaving trouble getting more pics posted. When I try to post more is says something about a 2mb limit for images?
  7. I feel confident that if you are considering these you know what they are and about their 70+ year heritage in the audio industry. They were in 1946 a revolutionary speaker and even now compete with some of the very best speakers out there. These speakers sound absolutely fantastic at low volumes (which I typically listen at) but in reality these babies are made for BIG dynamic sound.With their 105dB sensitivity these speakers will put you in the moment, at the concert like very few others can. Regardless if you prefer the intimate jazz club setting, rock concert at the arena or that large orchestral performance you are transported there in an instant. These speakers came to me in less than perfect shape and me being a woodworker and "never satisfied with mediocrity" type of guy decided to "improve" upon my new found treasure Now a lot of guys out there will modify these speakers to the point that they are not truly even Klipshorns anymore. I wanted to keep the signature Klipschorn sound as they were intended to be listened to so with that the only thing that I have upgraded "sound wise" are the old dried out electrolytic caps with new Gen 1 Sonicaps. Utilizing same values and no other mods done to the type "AA" crossovers they came with. Now the cosmetics are a different story....The veneer was just plain beat up. I really liked the 60th and 70th anniversary edition cosmetics so I incorporated a little of both to come up with what we have here and I think they came out great. They have lacewood veneer fronts with a hand-rubbed finish. The top hats have been done in a textures satin finish and " new school" grill cloth all around. I went with the latest Klipsch badges on the corners. The sequential serial numbers indicate that these were produced in the early 1980's. The crossovers are Type AA, K-77-M tweeters, K-55-V mid horns, and K-33-B woofers. Please forgive the amateur photography and varied lighting in these photos as my room has poor fluorescent lighting that doesn't like to "pop" the woodgrain on the speakers. I had to experiment with accessory lighting to get these images. Be assured that the lacewood is indeed gorgeous...The speakers are located in Charleston SC and will need to be picked up. Price is $5500.00
