I just wanted to post this somewhere here. Just goes to show, I SHOULD have waited!! I BOUGHT a pair of 1977 La Scalas and a McIntosh MC 2105 Solid State stereo amp off Craigslist mid to end of 2017, so I've at least got those! :-) John Kuthe... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opusk2k9 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 More photos for the La Scala II here: https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9739i-klipsch-heritage-lascala-la-scala-ii-full-range They are cherry. Unlike the ad says, they probably don't have a full warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksquared Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 58 minutes ago, Schu said: Ill give him 2500 for the LSii's I will have to do research, but I think if you check on hifishark, you can see the expired ad from the dealer in Springfield, IL about these same speakers. IIRC, the dealer ad showed more close-up photos of imperfections that aren't shown on the current ad. So I don't know if these imperfections have been fixed, or just attempted to be overlooked. If I can find it I'll post the link to the older ad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksquared Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Just now, opusk2k9 said: Few more blemishes than I thought. Thanks for finding. Any idea of the original price? You're welcome. The ad listed $5999 (So UNDER $6K!!) and was listed from 3/15/18 to 4/13/18. I found it by hifishark, searching la scala ii cherry, then expired listings. Now, technically I'm assuming they are the same, as how common would La Scala II in Cherry be in Central IL? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wstrickland1 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Could you actually get $4,300 for near perfect LaScala II's with all original paperwork, etc? I mean I wouldn't sell mine for that at this juncture but would someone pay that on the secondary market? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I think the market for great condition LSii's on the secondary market is 2500 +/- 500'ish. I'd never sell mine for that either. BTW, I think I could get NOS LSii's for sub 5k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
