Klipschorns in Pocatello High School


Recommended Posts

These Klipschorns were installed in Pocatello High School around 1978 where they were used until a couple of years ago.  An acquaintance, and fellow Klipsch fan, ended up with them.  They are mint!!!  AA crossovers and all drivers work.  Sweet decorators.  I've included pictures of the speakers and where they were installed.  They were replaced because they had no bass.  Could it be because there were no false corners behind them?  Lol.

 

Pocatello High School was built in 1892, but burned down.  It was rebuilt and the auditorium where these speakers came from was built in 1939.  Search Pocatello High School and check out the cool ghost stories!!!

They had no bass because they weren't at floor level, much like the Heresy's in all the Chipotle restaurants. I'm not confident that even if they had corners at that height, that they'd reproduce sufficient bass levels. Corners alone wouldn't cure the problem.

 

But who cares now; your buddy is the lucky recipient of a neighbor-killer pair of speakers.
