BamaMike Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I grabbed this pic off of a FB group I am in. Apparently these are for sale. Seller claims they are modified La Scalas. LOL Not sure where they are just wanted to share the pic. I'm guessing someone stuck a PWK badge on these. Sorry I don't know more but thought I would share in hopes of getting more info for the guy who is going to look at them. Asking price is $2500!

pbphoto Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Those look like modified file cabinets from the 1970s. Do the badges cover up the lock? :-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaMike Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 No link. Sorry. If you are on FakeBook, its in the Vintage HiFi and Stereo Equipment (VHSE) page. Pretty large group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaMike Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 I can't see them loaded with La Scala components. Heresy components maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktate Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 They are not in any way KLIPSCH so he is crazy and probably trying to rip someone off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDBRbuilder Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I've never seen anything like those, and I have pretty much seen everything ever marketed by Klipsch. They look like the result of a window air conditioner mating with an el-cheapo laminate covered end table, to me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzannucci Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 They could be modified La Scalas if that picture is the side of the speakers and the front is about 26" wide. If not they have nice Klipsch badges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love a pair, but what has that to do with these? Cornwalls, vertical or otherwise, they are not. EDIT 11/02/16: I was wrong. See post below with eBay link.

HDBRbuilder Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 HERE is the straight up truth...when I worked at Klipsch, a number of people would just scarf up some of the emblems and slap them on projects they built for themselves or for friends. VERY SELDOM did these products have a thing to do with stuff manufactured by the company, unless some purloined drivers were also involved. It had gotten to a point that the company was complaining about the logos dwindling even though they knew they SHOULD have enough around. People had them glued to dashboards of cars, the car stereo speaker grilles...almost anything you could imagine! When Klipsch went to the rectangular copper-toned logo, lots of employees scarfed up the pie-slice logo emblems for future use on Klipsch speakers they hadn't bought yet...just because they liked the "pie-slice" logo better than the newer logo So the emblems don't mean much, and neither does a photo of something totally unidentifiable by what can be seen IN the photo. Simply put, more info is needed than what has been supplied for the above-pictured pair of "SOMETHINGS". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Hey, I extensively modified a Peavey mixer, totally changed the look of the LED output ladders, and then slapped a Yamaha logo over the Peavey logo. Everyone had to ask what the heck was it. It ended up sounding better than a friend's $25K Neotek mixing console (made him tear into it for some upgrades too). I must confess I used a Klipsch copper logo from the late 70's as a ground buss in a Hafler DH500 amplifier, but never on a non-Klipsch loudspeaker.

BamaMike Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 I've tried to follow up but the guy that shared the image has not responded. Apparently these are at one of those large indoor flea market places in a "booth". When and IF I hear back, I'll let you know what he says.
