really want to get me some La Scala's after a very enjoyable stint with some new to me Heresy II's. New LS's are out of the question for the near future after recently moving into a new house. So used is the only way it will happen. Looking around, it can be tough to find used LS's for sale where the seller is willing to ship, understandably. And here in Salt Lake City it is a Klipsch Heritage wasteland.... nothing. So, I can go about it 2 ways and I'm hoping the forum experience will help me decide which is best.
Option 1: found a seller that will ship a SINGLE "LS-BLS W/S". It works great, per the seller, and appears to be in great shape.... love the aesthetic of these! $1500 shipped. Excited about this as it would look great in my new place. However, I fear the possibility that I wait forever for a viable match either locally or another single that the seller will ship. Could be a long long while!
Option 2: plenty of the ugly (sorry for those that might be into them) Industrial La Scala's to be had for cheap. However, to get them show room ready, it would be a project. I'm always up for a project, but hopefully it isn't a huge undertaking to get them stripped stained and refinished. And not sure if even a fantastic finish on an industrial will be anything close to a "normal" La Scala.
for those of you that might have some experience in either option, I would love to hear your take?
thank you!
