Shakeydeal Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Very new pair of Forte IIIs in excellent condition. I bought these in March and they have less than three hundred hours on them. Virtually indistinguishable from new. Believe everything you have read, these are awesome speakers. I'm only selling because a deal on a pair of klipschorns came up and I couldn't pass on them. The finish is distressed oak and is simply beautiful.I have the original boxes, but would prefer a local sale. Willing to meet in the southern Virginia/northern NC area. Will upload pics tomorrow, but I'm sure most of you have seen them here before. Asking 2400.00 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shakeydeal Posted June 5, 2018 Author Share Posted June 5, 2018 Only one system. I have never cared to have more than one. If i had a secondary system, i would always listen to the best one anyway.☺️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk My progression was Cornwall ➡️ Cornscala ➡️ Something else ➡️ Something else ➡️Forte III ➡️ Klipschorn Trust me, the FIII is so good that I could have easily lived with it for years. It's one of the best out of the 35 speakers I have owned. But a khorn is a khorn........😀 Shakey 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shakeydeal Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 There are absolutely no flaws at all in the cabinets. I would be willing to ship via fedex and insure the hell out of them. Shakey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeithMcGowan Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 I don't need speakers but you are so close it is tempting. My original fortes with some upgraded bases with leadshot were incredible sounding speakers . Fortes take a little time to place correctly, but have the potential to sound as good as damn near anything. I'm dying to hear a pair of IIIs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
