Escher Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 My K-Horns are finished... (Sorry if you are on the FB group, this is a repeat) I contacted Klipsch to get a set of 70th anniversary badges as mine never had any (customized decorators)... but they don't have them... So - I found an ebay seller who makes reproduction badges. I sent him a pic of the 70th anniversary badge and a scan of my original labels with the script Klipschorn logo and he came up with a very nice design that is quite close to both the script and the style of the 70th anniversary badge. Here is the result: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEH Synergy Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Not sure whether I like the badges or the knife more.... Both are visually inspiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escher Posted July 11, 2018 Author Share Posted July 11, 2018 Not currently - look for eBay ID grossbjorn and see if he can make you a set.. that’s how I got these. It’s a great service for folks with vintage audio needing new badges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano1974 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Understood thank you, can I ask please how much you paid for them?

Escher Posted July 11, 2018 Author Share Posted July 11, 2018 Just FYI - these don’t have any attachment method... just smooth backs. I used small neodymium magnets to attach mine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, they look great. While listening to @ClaudeJ1‘s Jubilees awhile back, we were discussing a Southeast Michigan get together. Would you be interested? In the spring I’ll start a thread dedicated to such an event. Until then, if you want to be on the mailing list let me know. @mopar dave @Treyphan @bhenry @picky @Audio Flynn @teaman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the result: Other than the badges, which look very good BTW, what else did you do to your speakers? Are the pristine decorators back in the custom cabinetry shells, and is the grill cloth the same? In any case, they look very good. I look forward to hearing them this spring or summer. FWIW, although not an intellectual property lawyer, I am an attorney, and I would not lose sleep over using Russian reproduction Klipsch badges. The main issue, IMO, is whether you are trying to misrepresent non-Klipsch products as Klipsch for resale, which you are not. Could the Russian seller run afoul of the intellectual property laws, perhaps, but unlikely? Clearly they are selling reproductions. More important, they are producing something that is unavailable from Klipsch. It would be different if they were competing with Klipsch. In any event, the practicality of successful economically feasible international litigation over this issue makes it extremely unlikely that Klipsch cares in the least.
