Montego Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 http://jackson.craigslist.org/ele/4075907395.html Not mine. Are these worth more than later models? Do they sound similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly0116 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Not really more valuable. They were designed to either stand upright or lay down. I have a pair of '64 vertical Cornwalls. I prefer them to the standard Cornwalls, I like the tweeters being further apart....just my opinion. I feel like it spreads the sound out better. I'd say $1200 is a bit steep though......

Budman Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 remember the grills are not removable on this set from 1967 i also like the verticals. owned 3 pairs of them. 71-72-74 in teak-walnut & mahogany wouldn't bother me one bit to pay $1200 for them if in my town and no shipping sound the same as regulars someone took very good care of them, the back labels are in mint condition as are the arrows. my 74's had that cloth that was stained and thats when i got into making removable grills for them in black and cane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I can check them out for you or meet you to go see them, but they do seem a bit high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budman Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 grills not removable... says who? are you talking about the decorator version? decorators didn't come with grills and 1975 was the first year for removable grills always liked my verticals with the tweeter on the outsides of the room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly0116 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 The grills on the verticals cover the motorboard. To change the grill cloth you have to take the back off and remove the screws from the inside that hold the motorboard to the cabinet. There is no removeable grill as in pull on, pull off.

Not to mention the 1000 staples that hold them on, staples must have been very cheap, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
