(just kidding, just kidding ) @sammey about where are located in Ohio? There usually is a steady supply of used Klipsch near Cinci and sometimes Columbus. As you go north there is some stuff in Michigan. I did a quick SearchTempest search and there is virtually NO Klipsch within a couple hundred miles of our area. (I'm in Parkersburg, WV) You might open your search to FB Marketplace, Ebay (yuch) and on-line auctions like EBTH.com, Audiogon.com and USAudio.com, but Khorns look scarce right now.

wvu80 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Hey @sammey: Check with @frt8dog I just saw in another post he as a pair of Khorns he wants to sell and he has NOT YET put on them on the market. He is out of Indiana. This might work out for both of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had people ask me to ship to your area because they can't find anything close by. I checked and they were right. What is it that makes Klipsch so scarce there?

We had one high-end audio store in WV that I know of back in the 70's, in Morgantown, the home of WVU. Even though it was a college town the actual population was less than $20,000, not enough people to sustain a local Klipsch dealership with the Heritage lineup. You can find the odd set of Quartets or La Scala's now and again in West Virginia, but they are rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to wonder what sort of incentives manufacturers beside Klipsch offer dealers to get them to ignore Klipsch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 There is a nice pair in north Georgia complete with ALK universal networks and false corners should you need them. They belong to forum member Cigarbum who is selling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBL 2404 baby cheeks tweets as I recall. Yum! tc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 We recently restored those Ks to stock horns and drivers + the ALKs, and false corners at Bob's so they would be easier to sell. But........the extras (horns, drivers) mentioned by IB Slammin are also available. Bob made the wooden tractrix horns himself. He is fine craftsman. Heavy duty and on the money with dimensions. He also always liked the JBL drivers and spared no coin when he put all this together. So these extras are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though it was a college town the actual population was less than 20,000.

Are they afraid of pissing off the Limeys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
