FOR SALE - Klipschorn Speakers - Nashville, TN $1800.00 Pair ***SOLD***

[Slapfireguy]

***SOLD***

I am finally ready to sell my walnut finish Klipschorn Speakers. Here is the information about this specific pair. They are a
pair of K.B.WO - AA with serial numbers 8P952 and 8P953. I am asking $1800.00
for the pair. This is right in line with the current going prices. They
are located at my family home in Brentwood, TN. off of Granny White Pike, one
mile north of Old Hickory Boulevard south.

The story behind this specific pair of Klipschorn speakers is that I bought
them from Tompall Glaser one of the original Outlaws with Willie Nelson, Waylon
Jennings and Jessi Colter. Wanted, The
Outlaws is an album
by Waylon
Jennings, Willie
Nelson, Jessi
Colter, and Tompall
Glaser, released on RCA Victor in 1976, and consisting of previously
released material. Released to capitalize on the new outlaw country movement at that
time, Wanted! The Outlaws earned its place in music history by becoming
the first country album to sell a million
copies. Glaser's Streets of Baltimore has been covered by Gram Parsons on his first solo album, GP. It has also
been covered by Nanci
Griffith on her album Other Voices, Too, and it was a
country hit for the legendary, Bobby Bare.

I bought these speakers when Tompall and the Glaser Brothers (members of
The Grand Ole Opry) were selling their studio and building back in the
mid-80's. Glaser Studios was the first 16 track recording facility, located at
the corner of 19th Ave. South and South Streets in Nashville, TN. I am the
second owner of these speakers. In addition to their unequaled and legendary
sound, they are beautiful pieces of fine walnut furniture. There is one small
nick in the wood along a facing strip, but If you call them Klipsch will send
you a strip of the self-adhesive walnut veneer and a bottle of stain/finish
to restore it correctly. It's an easy fix. I decided to keep them as I
purchased them because of their historical significance.

My son had wanted them, but he Is 28 and married and they don't have room
for them at their townhouse, so it's time to let them go. I live just outside
of Toronto, so they just sit at the house, and that's a shame.

I hope that if you purchase these, you will enjoy them as much as I
have.

Why does the heading say Nashville, TN and you live in Toronto? And please don't tell me you used the Klipschorns as they're shown in the picture! []

I have to admit that is the most unusual setup for Khorns that I have ever seen. Didn't know you could use a DLP TV to make a corner. []

Hi Everyone. The speakers are consecutive numbers. I have corrected them in the original post.

No, the dog was sniffing - only in the picture for scale (for the uninitiated).

As you can tell, They are sitting on either side of that old TV for 26 years. They have not been attached or in use for the last 13 years. They have sat in that same room on either side of that old TV. We had to corner them to the TV because it was the only way to fit them in. Originally they were set up and fed by a good system. The family wants a new TV for that room and they want 5.1 sound so, Im in Toronto, the speakers are in Nashville, I never get to enjoy them so its time to send them on their journey. As another poster said, there are more photos in the Craigs list ad -

Mr. Woody told me i was second in line to buy them right after someone from craigslist. i emailed and asked for some nicer pictures ( i also emailed you to see if you were in the running ) and he told me that he had several people before me and they were offering more than his asking price. his last email was sorry they are sold.

what i can't understand is i told him 2 hours after he posted them here i want them if they are consec serial numbers because he typed them in wrong. 24 hours later he posts the right serial numbers and asks if anyone has any questions. what part of I WANT THEM doesn't he understand

That sucks. Sounds like what I run into with craigslist all the time. I didn't think it was suppose to happen here. Good luck on your search.
