superedge88 Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 I purchased a pair of version one CF-4's that have the oak finish and I plan on using Duratex to paint them a tough textured black. I thought I would ask if anyone has a black set that would want to trade for my near mint Oak pair. Just thought I would ask since there might be someone on the forum that has a black set that always wanted an oak set instead. Quote
jephdood Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Of course, anyone can do what they want with their own speakers... but spray painting textured black over mint oak? <cringe> [:#] Quote
superedge88 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 Duratex is not a spray paint. It is a rolled on product similar to what is used on professional audio gear (in fact I believe some klipsch pro audio gear might be painted with duratex or something very similar) I do realize that some do cringe at the thought, which is why I'm offering a trade. Below is a video demo Quote
Sancho Panza Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 How did they find out the Polak who won the Olympic Gold Metal? He tried to have it Bronzed!!! P.S. my mothers maiden name was Schawbloski Seriously, thoughtful offer, hopefully someone will take this deal. Quote
Woofers and Tweeters Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Sacrilege[] I don't like oak the best either, but.... I wish I had a pair to trade. Quote
snailtrax Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Where are you located? I have a pair of CF-3 series 1 in Black. I may sell them. I am in Hammond, La. Quote
superedge88 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 Where are you located? I have a pair of CF-3 series 1 in Black. I may sell them. I am in Hammond, La. Thanks for the offer, but I am only wanting the CF-4's. Quote
moray james Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 This ia an amazing offer for anyone with a set of black CF4 who would love a mint set of Oak. You are a very generous and considerate person. Thank you for being a member of the Klipsch forum, thank you for being. Best regards Moray James. Quote
superedge88 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 I appreciate the kind words Moray. For those that cringe at the thought of me using duratex on mint Oak, I don't blame you. All my furniture is black, I like black, more importantly my wife likes black, so one way or another I plan on having black CF-4's Quote
jephdood Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah, I'm not a big oak guy either.. but a little contrast is nice, right? [:'(] I dunno. It just makes me sad whenever a finished wood is painted. Unless, of course, it's pretty beat and the only thing that would make it presentable is a few coats of something. But... like I said... they're your speakers and you can cover them in glued glitter and ribbons if it makes you happy. Hope you find someone to trade with tho. [] Quote
Woofers and Tweeters Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I commend you on the offer and hope someone with CF4s sees this thread.[Y] As I said: I wish I had some CF4s. Not sure if they're Red or White Oak, but they might shine in more than one way in all the black. My office is all black except for some Mahogany, it complements the black. Quote
fast00 Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Where are you located? I have a pair of CF-3 series 1 in Black. I may sell them. I am in Hammond, La.I'm not far from you. I live in gonzales, a little less than an hour drive. If you decide to sell them shoot me a pm. Quote
