DizRotus Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Two interesting vintage speakers. As Khorn51 points out below, only the Brociner is a licensed version of a Klipschorn. EV Patrician http://cgi.ebay.com/electro-voice-patrician-model-800-speaker-/230611848573?_trksid=p3286.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8739834018862326846 Brociner-Lowther http://cgi.ebay.com/Brociner-Lowther-PM3-Klipschorn-Klipsch-50s-corner-horn-/220772536527?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item33671190cf PWK once asked me, " Do you know what a Patrician is?" Before I could reply about the EV Patrician, he said, "A patrician is someone who steps out of the shower to take a leak." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khorn51 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I dont think klipsch Licenced the Patrician 800 with its 30" bass driverwhich is not even horn loaded, but the other But the other Ev Patrician was a khorn the Klipsch liscenced. Brociner and Klipsch go way back almost to day one. I think some first hand built khorns built by Klipsch back in 46 or 47 ended up being sold through Brociner. .

I believe you're correct. I didn't know there was a non-Klipschorn Patrician. I incorrectly assumed the seller was mistaken about the 30" woofer. The PWK anecdote is true.

davis419b Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 It is amazing the simularity between the Brociner-Lowther and my 54 Khorn ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 That's very cool! I was in the area at the Gaylord hotel for a convention the week before the Super Bowl. Had I known you had such an interesting speaker, I would've invited myself over.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
