Sorry about the thread hack, but...Around that same time I was entertained by "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan (USA, USA!!!) breaking a 2x4 across Andre's back in the ring (Portland, OR)...oh, the inhumanity! https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=hacksaw+jim+duggan+vs+andre+the+giant&view=detail&mid=AB15AFB69B41A028DCF3AB15AFB69B41A028DCF3&FORM=VIRE

check out this thread https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/157069-what-is-the-purpose-of-a-vertical-cornwall/page/2/

supposedly better dispersion from the K77...the Jensen (K-33J was only used for a few years in Heritage systems)....many threads about the P15LL in Klipsch and many other vintage systems...

https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/ele/d/west-linn-vintage-klipsch-cornwall/7434304848.html These appear to be the highly desirable vertical cornwalls with alnico tweeters and what appear to be Jensen P15LL woofers...these won't last long...

Yes, age has really affected LaScala prices....

I've had good luck with the NAD AVR stuff on Khorns and LaScalas...just another brand you might want to check out...feature packed.

false statements on CL?...oh yee of little faith...LOL

Single Birch...owner says never used...as new! https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/ele/d/portland-klipsch-lascala-78-legacy/7426916334.html pics added

Now $199 or best offer for MWMs....someone offer this guy $100. and get 'em! Dang that is a long ways from Seattle... https://www.ebay.com/itm/133908114839?hash=item1f2d8bad97:g:lEUAAOSwmvRhbkm7

They come with casters installed if they are in the pro black cabinets.

They are designed for keyboards...accordingly excellent mids and highs, bass along the lines of a Heresy...many consider this model to be one of the best of the earlier pro stuff for home use, particularly when augmented with a subwoofer. They imaged better than my stock '86 LaScalas, probably due to the well respected 2404H tweeter. 4628B specs.pdf

By all means keep your eyes on all the usual sources for Klipsch (don't forget to search for Klispch, lots of misspelled ads...LOL) Given your budget and preference for the vintage sound, I would suggest you also consider some other brands that don't have the strong used market pricing Klipsch has; like Bozak, Electrovoice and Wharfedale. You must audition to confirm if they are right for you, but some can sound very good and are generally efficient enough for your Marantz.

yeah, the upfront offer to double box and ship is a red flag...sorry guys, when I see H's for $300. I post quickly.... PS. David Culver is the worst scammer...also very active in the Seattle area...Marantz receivers and Akai to reel to reels for $250. lately, burnt enough folks that there active ads warning of the scam on Seattle CL...

Yes probably scam...just noticed the "belles footprint" reference...

cash and carry

Here's Evelyn Glennie; one of the world's premier percussionists...and deaf since twelve...interesting Ted talk on how she ""hears" music:

Suggest you consider a Schiit Modi Multibit aka "mimby"...lots of reviews/comparison to the $699. bifrost multibit (fairs pretty well if you don't need the upgradable architecture) , etc. Sounds great to me...ships in 1-3 days https://www.schiit.com/products/modi-1

That's a "K" version....no whizzer...

Tested by PWK on one label....looks like a newer top hat/components?

I saw references in older threads, but I thought I would share the download links if anyone hasn't checked it out yet. Great resource for older tubes, speakers and gear originally published starting in the mid 90's. Here is a link for free downloads: http://www.enjoythemusic.com/diy/0414/vacuum_tube_valley.htm As an example, Quarterly #13 (out of 20 posted) has an extensive interview with Paul Klipsch as the lead article. Here is an index of topics covered in all issues: VTVDEXnu.pdf

Why not put it in the garage sale section here...not a lot of comparables out there...best offer?

here's some pics (not my speaker, not my cat LOL)
