I read the same ad you did, that went right over my head. I read what I expected to see. It always amazes me people want thousands, $2800 in this case for their 40 year-old speakers yet can't provide more than one pic, no serial number info, nothing. Yet still, someone will probably buy them. I'm assuming those are Khorns from the late 70's with Type AA XO's in good shape. The average price by my spreadsheet would be $2114. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 you don't see to many k-horns in cherry veneer back then if in fact they are in cherry if its a factory installed logo these are at least 1979 model year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never admit it!!! Never! Go over on the College Football 2018 thread of yours to see my predictions, then you'll see how smart I am. I never tire of being wrong.

I don't go mining for prices, I just jot them down when I come across them, about 90% from Alerts! or Garage Sale here. We don't always know if CL sales go for the listed price so it's a crap shoot when I track numbers. Many Klipshites PM me the details of their buy/sell prices and it is those confirmed prices which help to make the numbers more valid. Keeping track of Heritage Prices is part of how I enjoy this activity and as always, Your Mileage May Vary. +++ Almost forgot: If anyone ever wants a copy of my Heritage Price sheet, shoot me a PM.

I found the $5K pair but those were 1993. The prices I listed are under the Type AA XO, which means nothing newer than 1982. Those are not comparable to the prices I listed. I found the $4500 pair but even though there was only one bid and it was listed under Sold, the Seller relisted the speakers. Not yet sold. I found another pair for $4900 which were gorgeous. Those were 1979 and definitely belong in the category with the Type AA Khorns. Those would be at the top of the range. I saw other Khorns sold for $1000, another set for $1500 which of course would be towards the bottom of the range. After you get 20 or 30 samples they all average out.

MEH Synergy Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I think what budman is trying to say is: we appreciate you tracking the prices, but they are currently increasing it seems to me and several others as well 👌. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it, added to the Heritage Prices Spreadsheet. Thanks for the confirmed price. I sold my plain jane 1979 black Khorns for $2400. Rose is a premium finish, you did good. Whereabouts are you? State is fine, or area if you are in a big state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
