Frzninvt Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Klipschorn Spec sheet lists Birch Plywood & MDF for current build materials. You need to look at Klipschorn's that are 15 years old or older to get all Baltic Birch building material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brac Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) <img class="bbc_img" src="http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac262/bracattack/08k4_zpsc10f8899.jpg" alt="08k3_zps0668ec76.jpg"> this answer the question at hand? looking at this pic I would say the strip pieces are ply and the top and bottom of the hat are MDF.. That means we still need a buyer. Edited March 12, 2014 by Brac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max2 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The Mdf would be a show stopper for health reasons. I had a pair of 60th anniversary edition khorns which were also Mdf and there was a chemical in the Mdf that aggravated my wife and sons asthma. So I had to sell them. So we need a verdict on the Mdf question. My '89 pair have both plywood and MDF inside the doghouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brac Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Just got off the phone with Klipsch, they say they have been using MDF for internal pieces all the way back to the 70's. They also say that all external parts are plywood. He assured me that the top and bottom of the high hats are NOT MDF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brac Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Best info I can find says new MDF will "offgas" heavily for the first year and some for 5 years. These are 6 years old. If anybody is serious I can go lay hands on them tomorrow and confirm what klipsch says. He just sent me another pic of the wood in question and it defiantly has grain. http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac262/bracattack/08k5_zps33dde0e7.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
