BK-WO would stand for Belle Klipsch, Walnut Oil.

 

As far as year of manufacture, this thread tells how to decode by serial number.

 

Klipsch Heritage "Codes" - 2-Channel Home Audio - The Klipsch Audio Community

 

I would check your number again, there should be a letter in the middle of the numbers.

 

Thank you Wuzzzer - perfect link.   Checked and the 5 is really an "S"   Got it!

Hello, I am new to the forum.   My friend just downsized and could not take his Klipshhorn speakers which I believe he bought new in 1969.    Is there a way to determine year of manufacturing for Type:  BK-WO, serial: 25892?     I just hooked them up to my existing system and they sound fabulous.   I am surprised I don't get the Bass level I expected from these speakers though.   Even with my sub-woofer control activated on my Denon, the bass is pretty "normal"     The mid and highs are excellent.     Thanks for any insights.   dCharles
