ricktate Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 WOW what a find...very lucky. What people throw away amazes me instead of trying to sell or give to a friend. I was at a recycle center one day and this company who charges to haul stuff off drove in with a whole shopsmith in pieces in the back. I have also heard of K-Horns being found in dumpsters.

Stump Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Congratulations and welcome to the club. You can't beat free, working Klipsch speakers. I have the same speakers, but modified with Crites crossovers, Crites Titanium tweeter diaphragms and Crites Phenolic midrange diaphragms. Even in stock configuration, these are awesome speakers, the mods take them up a notch and with tube amplification I can't fathom anything sounding better, though they sound just fine with a decent solid state amp or AVR. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) Nice, way nice! Price question: I paid $900 for Chorus IIs in walnut in 1991 but that was at a military exchange store in Germany. Edited April 15, 2016 by USNRET 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been rotating between the JBL TLX12s, Dali Concept 6s and vintage Kreisler's. When brought the Chorusii into the living room my partner have me a dirty look and queried where I intended to put them. Iovrd the Dali's out and these are here to stay. I keep mentioning to her how more incredible these speakers sound, she looks at me like I'm a nutcase....lol.. If you go more than a few days without getting that look you're doing it wrong. Congratulations on the find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswhotakesphotos Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 It's amazing what people will let go of, let alone in the garbage! My best find was when I mentioned offhandedly to a client that I think Klipsch makes great home speakers. When he said he had an old, unused pair I told him they'd probably be worth a buck, but since he was moving, it was easier to just give them to me. No complaints!
