Woofers and Tweeters Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I'm sure that pictures doesn't do these speakers justice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzannucci Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Am I missing a full set of pictures? I would have liked to see the overall finish but any, too far to drive. Who ever picks them up will likely have a very nice furniture addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Am I missing a full set of pictures? I would have liked to see the overall finish but any, too far to drive. Who ever picks them up will likely have a very nice furniture addition. No there weren't any other pictures at the time I made the agreement to purchase, but I liked what I saw. The seller has since then added some pictures and sent me a description of two tiny nicks that are quite acceptable for 33 year old cabinets. I am looking forward to bringing these Klipschorns home.

pzannucci Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Congrats!! Very nice and thank you for sharing the other pictures. A very rare find, or at least someone who is willing to part with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornukopia Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 The Klipschorns have safely arrived at their new home. Here are some pictures of the tops in the sunlight. The woodgrain looks 3-Dimensional, and different viewing angles of the irridescent rosewood create color shifts from reddish brown to gold. Indoors they appear much darker, but halogen spotlights bring out a beautiful glow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colterphoto1 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 OMG those are fabulous! Did you guys ever hear the story about the sheets of veneer being laid out across the Hope factory floor and someone with very keen eye being able to pick those that would become matched pairs of Khorns (without benefit of stain or oil on the veneer - just the raw wood). Kind of a like a gigantic game of Go Fish. That's why some of the more vintage pairs look so cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
