Alpha220 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Good looking, fair priced ($950), local pick-up (near Tampa, FL), late build (January 1985) Cornwalls via eBay. I have no relation, just noticed them. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Klipsch-Cornwall-I-Speaker-Speakers-Pair-/172720833647 Grab 'em if you need 'em!

fuzzydog Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Nice looking speakers for a fair price. This post should be moved to the Alerts sub forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Favog Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Personally, I would check those serial numbers with HQ to make sure they're Black Fir. Only because both markings look like they've been traced over compared to the test and inspection signatures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon further consideration, labels from 1984 forward were typically stamped with a serial number, not hand-written, but I suppose anything is/was possible. Perhaps it was a custom order, who knows? What is clear is that the drivers do look to be 1985 vintage. The woofer dust cap and finish appears identical to any of that vintage, and the composite mid horn is correct. Even the ports, Velcro discs and badges are correct. Klipsch HQ should be able to settle any doubt -- along with a peek inside to confirm a K77 tweeter and a B-3 network. Plus date stamps on each driver should be mid to late 1984, I'd suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
