  1. Will add photos when I get back to my computer so I can resize, on phone now.
  2. One set of Heathkit SS-1B speakers. Large and in charge. Bought with a big lot of stereo gear and thought this group might appreciate these. The raw colored one I opened up (two partially backed out screws made me curious) and has drivers but nothing hooked up. Haven’t looked into the others. Asking $600 as is before I pull out the drivers and junk the cabinets due to size. Located in Monkton, Maryland 21111. Willing to discuss pulling out drivers as well. Cheers!
  3. I have a KP-250 in Maryland that I can’t seem to find a mate for if you’re still looking.
  4. Hello, I just picked up The Fisher X-101-C from a friend of mine, and would like to have it checked over and repaired where necessary. This is my first tube amp. Who should I have look at it? I am in Maryland. Thanks!
  5. Sorry for the lapse in response! The place is called MD Architectural Salvage, they have a website and facebook site. He clears out old mostly industrial buildings. As @Godataloss stated, they have awesome stuff. I bought a table used in an old foundry from the ‘30s with a wonderfully aged wooden top and a cut down porcelain Firestone sign, a cool early Art Deco Westinghouse fan, and a few other odds and ends. @Guest Vahorns it was where the Wizards play so indoor, my bad I am not a sports guy. I would suggest contacting him through facebook. I told him I would post them in this forum and maybe help him out selling them.
  6. Not mine, but for sale. I was in an architectural salvage building over the weekend and ran across a few massive horns. They were removed from Capitol One Stadium in Washington DC. Also a handful of Electrovoice FRI+122/64, and two JBL AS2210-STD. I know this is a Klipsch site but I know the group likes big horns. They are located in Baltimore, MD.
  7. Hello, not sure if this is the correct section to post these in. Not mine, but for sale. I was in an architectural salvage building over the weekend and ran across a few massive horns.

  8. I have a signed KP-250 I cant seem to find a match for (or someone willing to sell their single.)
  9. Not exactly, my speakers are KPT-904’s and he is two hours away.
  10. Excellent! I believe we are making a swap for the Scott in the next week or two.
  11. Is that an unpopular opinion to have? I’ve heard of El84 and EL37 but don’t know the difference
  12. Yes, he has receipts for both. It would not be my first piece of vintage gear, I have had a dozen or so amps in various states of repair.
  13. I I’ve never heard either, which is obviously a big deciding factor. But audio guys always have an opinion, so strong opinions either way could sway me.
  14. Good morning folks! I have never owned a tube amplifier before. I have an opportunity to trade an existing amp for either a Fisher 500b or a Scott 299b, both have been serviced, both are within spitting distance price wise. I like the look of both, I don’t need the tuning capabilities of the Fisher, and having the Scott integrated would be beneficial to me. What are the thoughts of other owners? Thanks!
  15. Thanks! Learn something new every day about this site.
  16. Where are you located with the single?

    D I agree it is a niche market, however I would say demand is pretty good, evidenced by the speed at which vintage klipsch sells. Based on my own observations watching my local facebook marketplace, Craigslist, garage sale area, etc. Even if there is no outside demand, I think there are enough of us Klipsch nuts who don’t mind having extra stuff around!

    Agreed. Like old cars, this stuff is only getting more scarce, and anytime something can be put back original I think it should be. Good on you for getting them to a worthy home.

    You can say that again! I try to pick up “odd” klipsch stuff whenever I find it, whether I need it or not. It all comes around sometime

    Why is everything in the middle of the country…
  21. Cool!! So glad you got them, they were a great looking set. My HII’s are pretty cat proof…
  22. I’ll admit, the rat fur even gave me pause, but hell I don’t have a wife. They do look in nice condition, though. The Crites parts are a nice touch but they don’t add much for me, I’d almost rather if they were just Klipsch. my HII’s are sonically in great shape, the cabinets need a bit of love, a few bruises on the corners and edges. I bought them & planned to re veneer, but I plugged them in and they sounded so good that project got put on a way back burner. Great candidates if you like to tinker. I can send you some pictures if you’d like.
  23. I was tempted on that set (if you’re referring to the 2500s I think you are). If you get them, and are interested in working a trade on them and any of the following: Heresy II’s, KG4’s, KG1’s or a single KP-250, let me know! I like the pro stuff better. Also picked up 3 Academy centers today, they sound great.
