Zen Traveler Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 It does seem like schu is overreacting but I agree with him insofar as not many of those speakers were made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think the most "valuable/desirable" Heritage speakers are used and unfortunately that is a double-edged sword for Klipsch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Mote Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 23 hours ago, Sonicman said: Schu, I'm with you. Don't know when in 2016 they were released, so let's say it was late as December '16. That means in 18 months they haven't sold all 70 pairs of LS 2 AE speakers?? They couldn't sell more than 4 pair per month?? But, they're still not all sold yet. Adorama isn't the only place selling em. If Adorama had about 8 on the floor, and there's half a dozen more closed box units out there, they maybe sold 3 pairs a month !!! Worldwide ???? Where are the Klipsch fans OR is there a bamboozle by Klipsch as they keep cranking em out based on demand? Would the proud owner/owners of LS 2 Anniversary Edition with ser#'s 0071/0072 and higher please report in...... However, still a helluva deal at less than base unit price no matter the ser# 🤑 I can vouch for 24 of 70. I am also aware of 34 of 70. Great set of performance speakers. The Thunder from down under was just as I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Mote Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 22 hours ago, jimjimbo said: OK, so if I'm not mistaken, when these first came out, the MSRP was $14000.00 per pair.....$6999.00, each....Please correct me if I'm wrong...however, I challenge you to name another speaker company that has sold 70 pairs of $14000.00 speakers in 18 months. Not gonna happen. So then, when sales were slow at that price point, the sharks (Adorama, and others) started circling......and started acquiring, and offering at significant discounts. OK, fine. Now, it's summer 2017/2018, and it's a slow time in the retail business, for everything.... Again, I challenge you to name another speaker company kicking a$$ selling $6000.00 pairs of speakers. Oh, but now, Adorama puts out this grand sale that they can't even guarantee are matched pairs. And they're having issues with figuring out what makes a "set"....Really? And, and.....the (beauty is in the eye of the beholder), beautiful, wonderful Australian walnut is not everyone's cup of tea, nor is the notion that should you (Heaven forbid) want to sell them somewhere down the road, you have to come to the realization that you paid a very significant premium for a cute little plaque or whatever it is, and a special veneer.....Well, good luck with that. Really! The Adorama sales folks sell hair dryers to high end audio equipment. Their heads are pretty much in the sand. I had to spoon feed them through the entire process. I would have only hoped that my 1.5 month grindfest would have pointed them in the right direction. Keep fighting the good fight Schu, they will get it right.

The way I look at it I had some extra cash under the floor mats of my car... The bright idea of adding a third pair of LS's(70's) to the collection hit me. Now I have more leg room in the car to boot......... By the way they sound great, they look spectacular and they are real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
