pvgreg Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 Hi- I have a pair of 1967 K-horns in great condition, as I am the original owner. They have new original kane cloth and are in perfect working order. Do you know where I can post them for sale? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyKlipschFan Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 Try here first. Then EBAY Tell us the serial numbers on both units, and the components inside, what is the wood type, and condition of the speakers too. A good picture(s) would go a long way to help in your sale too. Sorry this sounds like a lot to work or to ask... Trust me, it will mean hundreds more in your pocket if you can supply all of this info too. Everyone else does. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flason Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 You may get more cash on e-bay, but you will find them a good home here for someone that really appreciates them. Money is important but sometimes knowledge that they will be cared for as you cared for them is more satisfying. Kinda like the Cruella DeVille analogy.

pvgreg Posted June 24, 2002 Author Share Posted June 24, 2002 Thanks for the quick reply. Here are the specs and some photos in the attachment. The finish is walnut, the tweeter is stamped K-77, the mid-range is stamped 4395-K-55V, and the driver is stamped Type 1-RB. The Model Number is K-C-W-R and the Serial Numbers are 2D214 and 2D215. They are in very good condition with only a few cosmetic nicks and dings in the finish that has been re-oiled. The kane cloth is all new, Klipsch original. I could use some advice on their reasonable value. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pvgreg Posted June 25, 2002 Author Share Posted June 25, 2002 Yes, we did have them on ebay last week (in California) and the reserve was not met. We based the reserve on a pair of k-horns that sold on ebay the week before for $3375. Our auction topped out at $1300. From the sources I've talked to, they're worth more than that. I'd like to get your opinion on the value. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiohead Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 If you are referring to these GOOD LUCK. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1359177169 Your k-horns are VERY nice but they are not quite in the same league as these. I think the max offer you would find on yours to be in the 1700-2000 range. This is just my opinion though and I am sure others may disagree.

IndyKlipschFan Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 LOL Kinda funny Kev 313 you nailed em... I love it when you see them one place, and then they seem to be repackaged another... I think his original post and being new in here with the please help me feeling of his message "Hi- I have a pair of 1967 K-horns in great condition, as I am the original owner. They have new original kane cloth and are in perfect working order. Do you know where I can post them for sale? Thanks!" was maybe, if I may stretch here, not quite "totally" honest. He knew about Ebay, he also knew, if he spent some time looking at this site too, that the Klipsch BB would be a great place also to share them with potential bidders/buyers. There was a pair of La Scalas that had this wood burning mushroom drug reference that I swear has been bought and sold like 5 to 6 times now on Ebay. LOL. Some hippie from the 60's I am sure who was wasted at the time burned into the side cabinet wood this "Alice In Wonderland" kinda thing. Really weird. OK, to a bid price.. 1,300 dollars was probably just a tad low but pretty close.. I would agree 1,500-1,800 maybe 2000, looking at yours vs what I have seen over the past 3 years. Sorry if it seems lower than what YOU wanted. Try again in a few months you never know. It is just my opinion. Like anything sold at auction or on the web... People will only pay for something they want at a price THEY think is fair.. Might be your price is too high.. But somewhere in the middle, is usually where a deal is made.

Deang Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 The killer is that potential buyers have to factor in $350 - $700 for packing and shipping costs. I can do $2200 max. ------------------ Deanf>s> AE-25 Super Amp DJH * S F Line 1 * S9000ES * HSU x-over * SVS CS+ * Klipsch RF7s f>s> Metal drivers make metal music shinef>c>s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
