OO1 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I hope not -- it Could take sales away from the Cornwall IV , and worse , the Forte IV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff. Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Naw, Fortes are for people that unfortunately don’t have room for “real” speakers, lol. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Lol, while we are at it, may as well ask the Cheif about 12 inch passives for the forte' and the 4's. Pd 13 is the part IIRC... That way, no more drone talk for a week or 2... maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant imagine Klipsch would start building new parts for 20+ year old speakers unless they have a use for them in their current or future production line... one can always hope I'd personally love to see a new Chorus III bet theyd sell like hotcakes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, it could be released a little down the road like late this year or early next. In any case, this is the type of speculation that sweet dreams are made of... Cool! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iaRIVR Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 If anyone is able to place an order for the KD16 will you kindly post the price? I have two recone kits from SS, but OEM and not having to recone is so tempting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was nonsensical because the seller said he was a "reputable" seller but then asked $350 for it. I disagree. I didn't even pay $200 for this pair of Chorus IIs. EDIT TO ADD. Klipsch Support responded with an available KD-16, which has the rubber surround, priced at $144. I might have bit at $98, but there's a $50 home repair in my future.

Should be about. 1-2 weeks. sorry to bring this thread/topic up again... but i just received a reply from klipsch support in response to my email asking about the kd16 price & when it will be available, the email says the KD16 is NOT available & they dont make parts for these old speakers. so is this available or not & what happened to 1-2 weeks? if it is available thats great, but the support dept apparently isnt aware of it. how/when can this part be purchased? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio Flynn Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 This is a bummer of an investigation. Any moderator able to offer insight. The young person at Klipsch Parts referred me to Simply Speakers and Speaker Works but they only offer the recone kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
