Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Its a vague ad but there are some K Horns in Highlands ranch you could look at. He does not list a price but maybe you can say how your are a forum member and a big Klipsch fan etc and he can cut you a deal: https://denver.craigslist.org/ele/d/klipsch-corner-horns-vintage/6723048085.html Or you can go big and get these beautiful rosewood ones: https://denver.craigslist.org/ele/d/vintage-klipsch-klipschorns/6727929162.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we are looking at a "pair" of sorts, the finished one being a genuine "B" style. The other looks like a nightmare home-garage project. Re the latter, the sides of the bass horn looks like cheap plywood slabs cut to fit, while the spacers for the side grill frames look more typically robust and have the classic dark brown paint of the genuine article (pic above), so it looks another one was taken apart and perhaps badly damaged. The spacers for the tail board look very crude, as do the male-up angled pieces at the bottom of the inside of the bass horn. The one bass bin door we can see looks cheap and tacked-on. So, that one is far from authentic IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
