Bonzo Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/ele/4972112769.html The Holy Grail for the true Klipsch collector IMHO. If I was on the East Coast, I would be robbing the kids college fund to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Those are gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolz Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Those are very nice and not to far, but I have no room for another pair. They were listed at a much higher price earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Not too far from me, I'd say maybe 3 hours. They have a nice patina, and I wonder how those labels have lasted so long in near perfect condition. I also wonder why the owner can't pin down the date of manufacturer, he has them at "1954 or 1955."

ChuckAb3 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 They look like the single K-horn my parents had (in mono) in the 50's and early 60's. Too many miles for me to even think about 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonzo Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Consecutive serial numbers so they were obviously bought as a pair. Do those have wooden horns? Edited April 11, 2015 by Bonzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
