jjptkd Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Wow, Walnut Lacquer? Don't think I've seen that on a Chorus II before, usually Walnut Oil. Nice looking speakers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivernuggets Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 First for me, too. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
001 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 very nice! & priced right too... not the outrageous $1200-$1500 like some out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Decent price at the top of the range, but there are bargains out there. I have 24 samples. The highest price I have documented for Ch2 was an Ebay auction on 11/16/16 in Oak for NOS $1221, price not averaged into the other data because it was NOS.

TLMarshall Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Just emailed him from his CL ad. Perfect timing. Just what I'm looking for. I'll take them. Setting up a time to meet up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

001 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 just looked at the CL ad, bummer they are missing the risers, but still a great price for nice looking speakers. & if you want or like the risers they are pretty easy to make. i prefer the look with risers.

TLMarshall Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) I sure will. He hasn't replied yet so fingers crossed but CL email relay can be that way sometimes, going to spam and what not. I was in the market looking for some Heresy's with plans on possibly upgrading the parts then these popped up. They'll sounds leagues above Heresy's. I'll be hooking them up to a Pioneer SX-1250 and my PL-570 Turntable. Hope it works out. Pics will come for sure.

Maximus89 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 OMG. I would buy that in a heart beat for even 1k if it was here in Houston. I never see any Walnut Chorus II's here. Only black or boring and dated oak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a pair in black finish near me for $750 on CL, but like you said, that finish is so boring to me that I keep holding out for a nicer veneer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have a pair of black CHII. Thought has crossed my mind to veneer them walnut on my own. I just don't want cheap looking veneer. If doing it myself, i'd prefer a very high quality figured walnut veneer like you see on the Forte III's. Then if a Walnut Oil Chorus II ever pops up, i'd get them as surrounds with plans to use Walnut Oil Heresy II as center channel(both of which would be sanded and finished to look similar to the mains I'm thinking of veneering. The original WO CHII looks too red for me). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus89 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Looks like these were just picked up as the ad has been deleted. Hope it was a forum member that got them! Never seen Walnut Lacquer. Looks much better than the Walnut Oiled that came bit too red toned for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridamp Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I think those Walnut Lacquer are beautiful, hopefully someone here got them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My SX-1250 is Walnut as well as my PL-570 so that Walnut was a major bonus. I'm going to see how they sound first with my ss receiver but now I'm thinking about tube amps.

Congrats, mighty fine speakers you got there! Crites drop in Crossovers and titanium tweeters will put these over the top IMO, you'll be spoiled on extreme detail and clarity from that point on so be warned! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats. You got yourself some of my dream speakers. They look to be in excellent quality and a finish option I've personally never seen. Take lots of photos so i can dream about them and then look at my beat up black Chorus II with contempt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey TL are you in Wilmington too? If so we should get together and check out those speakers! I'm off Greenville Loop Rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the guy said he's had them for about 5 years and he's the second owner. They're bone stock. I'll listen to them for awhile first but I've already gotten the itch to see what all's out there to freshen them up a bit. Between Crites and Simply Speaker, looks like there's nearly anything you'd want to replace/update them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind at all if you came along. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
