Heritage_Head Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Sorry i didn't reply i had to walk away from it for a bit.

Heritage_Head Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) Well have yourself a great B-day this sunday !! Same day as my wife. Thanks Hoping to go see the new spiderman. I have to ask why you have not put the screws to the dealer that sold them? Was not his fault. This mess is all klipsch. Sorry i didn't reply i had to walk away from it for a bit.

I really hope thats not the case but i would at least want the right speakers. Going through all this to end up with nothing but my money back seems like the wrong choice so far. But we shall see. If thats my last card to play i guess i would. Edited May 17, 2014 by reference_head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joessportster Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 happy B-Day, the offer of the 2.1 at least is an acknowledgement by them that they screwed up. I would however on monday contact the dealer and be sure I was not going to experience a warranty issue Think about this you have a receipt for A, they sent you B installing the crossover will not change the serial numbers nor the model number on the cabinet, god forbid you have a woofer or driver go out, you contact them for warranty service and they say our records show you purchased A, the product you sent / brought in for warranty is B, we cannot cover that...................you would of course explain the entire SNAFU and there response do you know who you dealt with ETC...ETC...ETC... The disdain they have shown in this transaction so far certainly would not instill any confidence that I was dealing with a reasonable outfit. It is Blatantly obvious to me there main concern is $$$$$$$$ there bottom line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have paid the extra money for over night shipping if i knew they were going to cheap out on me. I used to buy my speakers new, but since I don't have the cash to get what I want anymore I have started to buy used, and I have to tell you I am much happier! I used to buy new speakers and equipment every year or two so buying my speakers used is saving me a lot of cash that can be used elsewhere.

joessportster Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I don't believe Klipsch is quite the same company anymore, It's sad to say the least. Your problem has certainly steered me away from new, take a look at the 2.1 systems reviews on amazon truely a sad state of affairs. Lots of folks unhappy with the klipsch product quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1UC Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) 140.00 pair of computer speakers you got to be kidding , I would put your old speakers back and tell them to send a truck . Put the funds back in your pocket and look for deal , its not like you sold you old speakers yet anyway . Happy Early Birthday incase I forget you should at least get B stock price minimum , they are still saving money on return shipping . and you should get the 2.1 for your labor Edited May 17, 2014 by A1UC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappydue Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Ref, send em back man. I know where 3 perfectly good used one are sitting and can save you a ton of money!!!! All you gotta do is make a weekend trip out of it. Roughly 10 hour drive. Or you can pay a little extra and I can prolly have them brought to my place and then it's about a 6.5 hour drive. At least last time I drove up to Minneapolis for some speakers and to meet a couple members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coleman Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Sorry Ref. This situation your in has left a sour taste in my mouth. I have a feeling someone in corporate will be told about this and they will make it right. If they don't there is something seriously wrong. This is the Klipsch Forums and I'm sure there is employees at Klipsch headquarters that do pay attention to what's being said in here. They make wonderful speakers but if it wasn't for us they wouldn't be what they are today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebse2a3 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) What's with the Lynch Mob responses..? A Mistake was obviously made and yes it could have been handled better but to take this incident to the level some here are posting seems very wrong to me. Unless I'm mistaken this appears to be just an unfortunate incident and to let it reach the conclusions and suggestions some have posted seem way overboard IMHO. As far as worrying about future warranty issues I don't see any issues because this situation isn't that complicated. A model version without crossover was mistakenly sent in place of the model with crossovers (they are identical in all other respects) and that is pretty simple to deal with and understand if in the very unlikely event warranty repair was needed. reference_head again I'm sorry that this didn't go perfectly smooth for you but some of these post just seem way overboard in response IMHO. miketn Edited May 17, 2014 by mikebse2a3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heritage_Head Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 I want to say the support from all of you has been great thanks . Beeker your right they see what is being said here. But yet still nothing is being said or done. I sent the dealer I got the speakers from a pretty good rant after I talked to klipsch. With that i am very close to pulling the plug on this. I really hate to put him in the corner on this. (with it not being his fault) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
