-js- Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 nice looking speakers there. but wow! - $2500 worth of nice?!? wow. as much as I'd like to have a pair, umm... maybe overpriced? /sarcasm off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus89 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Seems everything is overpriced in Texas. Here in Houston, there's a nice pair of Chorus II for 1,700! A bad pair of Chorus II(missing veneer, poor condition black cabinets, reglued passives, missing screws, mismatched set, one top has been spray painted solid black) for $900! 2 Pairs of La Scalas for 2k to 2,700. A Pair of Forte I for $700! I blame it all on this 1 guy who buys and sells a lot of Klipsch for hundreds of dollars over the average price and then everyone else comes in and tries to sell their speakers based on his prices and won't accept anything less b/c they believe that is the fair price. Now you see $700-$800 Forte I's all the time lol.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure law of supply & demand is at work. if inventory in that condition is bringing prices like that, obviously some are willing to pay it. at some point you'd think it's GOT to top out. hard to say at what price that will be tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-js- Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 has anyone ever told you that maybe you should get out more often? (or get out at all? ) into the out of doors, with sunlight, fresh air etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got the message and pretty much gave up trying to flip audio (or are pityfully unsuccessful at it). Cool. Srinath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh Jimbo I had to move a pair of KG4s when I was checking the sump. I thought it was a nice touch in the bathroom, built into a wall unit was a Nak Dragon receiver and cassette deck with KG2s over the vanity. I could bring my own music or dial in a station before the requisite shit, shower, shave routine to start the day. Then it was on to the Big House for a great time. If you get invited to spend time at his place, bring what you want on cassette or dial it in. Spotify was a nice touch Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have the funds for La Scalas at this very moment, though. Maybe by next month and I'm also going to be up in Austin next month, so I'll have a decent drive to San Antonio or Dallas to find some LS if there are none in Austin at that time. I'm going to borrow my Dad's van just in case I find a pair so that I have the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
