It probably held on with sticky tape and just let loose and slid down. Maybe when they slid the plastic bag over it. If the wood grain looks good to you Aaron I would sit back and enjoy. You got 2 undamaged speakers .....Just Be Happy....lol. Can you post pic of both fronts the way that grain is I think it matched pretty good no matter how you put it. What you powering those babies with ?? I'm powering them with a Marantz SR5011 receiver and a Emotiva XPA-GEN 5 amp I will post pics of the full fronts but I can already say they aren't a perfect match I don't think unless it's the light playing tricks on me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronB123 Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 Yes you guys were right the logo was glued on, I just fixed it. Kinda felt like it was nailed but definitely glued. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cincymat Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Aaron, Thanks for sharing your experience of buying Klipschorns. To many of us it's just a dream. The speakers look gorgeous and I'm sure they sound wonderful. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. Mark PS. I wouldn't sweat the serial number thing. You're going to enjoy these speakers for a long long time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Smith Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 several finished pairs were on display at the factory tour in May. This is the only picture I snapped, but surely others took more. notice how they match, whereas Aarons are slightly different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one of Aaron's speakers looked like your pic from the tour, and the other looked like one of the two he has, well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This goes for anything with vinyl veneer and I do believe anything outside of Heritage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk YOU WIN FOR THE FIRST FLAME--MY POST WAS A JOKE BUT YOU COULD NOT TELL.

Schu Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Those finishes aren't slightly different... they are very different. But if you can live with it, who cares. You should see my LSii's, in the day light they are trashed but they sound awesome... then again, I didnt pay retail either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 IMO, they look spectacular. Enjoy the way they look and sound. The beauty of wood is the natural variation in grain. If you require an exact match you might prefer wood grained Formica. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Hi AaronB123, Congratulations on getting your Klipschorns. They must sound great. I have wanted some 70th Anniversary Klipschorns since seeing that exotic veneer at the Consumer Electronics Show last January, but I already have Klipschorns, so instead I am glad to learn about a fellow forum member, you, getting your beautiful Australian Walnut Klipschorns. This thread raises a question. Do any of the 70th Anniversary boxes have a label stating that a specific serial number Klipschorn should be paired up with another specific serial number Klipschorn, similar to how it is indicated on the labels of my pair of Heresy III shipping boxes? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 ^^^^^ Great words to live by Shu but how this thread has progressed that is doubtful. Now that each and every flaw in Aaron's $12k pair of Heritage has been brought to his attention how could he be happy and not worry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
