Rivernuggets Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) Flagship of the KG line. I've had these for about three years. Cabinets were rough when I bought them. Will post a picture of one of the original condition tops soon. I refinished the cabs: sanded, primed (Krylon rattle can), sanded, sprayed three coats of black satin (Krylon rattle can) with light sanding in between. Components are all in great shape w/ Crites Titanium Diaphragms installed. I've got the originals if the buyer wants them. Reason for selling is I have KG 4.5s and don't feel the need to have these monsters. Heavy bass response from these! Excellent for Rock. This is a heated, climate controlled garage. No abuse to these fine speakers . More space here to move them around for pictures. Can be auditioned before sale if you like. Local sale only please in Madison, WI. I've had the KG 3.5, 4.5, and 5.5 for a while now ( I love this hobby!), but will only keep the 4.5. edit: this is the third time pics haven't posted in the order I'd like.

opusk2k9 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 The KG 5.5 have lots of bass. Nice speakers, especially with the refinishing and the crites diaphragm update. Good luck with your sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USNRET Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 If they were to be at the spring Hope meet I would purchase. Too big and far to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivernuggets Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 If they were to be at the spring Hope meet I would purchase. Not sure yet if I can make the Spring meet. Still, would prefer the money sooner than later to fund other audio stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One suffered some unintentional destroy-ation. Edited November 22, 2014 by USNRET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twk123 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Good luck with the Sale. It seams like the used speaker market has been slow lately. When I bought my KG 5.5's in Utaha few years ago I was lucky to get them for $400 and just eeked out a number of other buyers. Some guy finally sold his wood finish ones a few months ago for around $350 and he had them on the market for weeks. Awesome speaker btw they are definitely a high energy speaker that throws the intensity of music at you effortlessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
