MATT0404 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Up for sale is a wonderful sounding pair of Klipsch Chorus II's. Chorus II's are hard to find on the used market and even more rare in walnut veneer. This pair has been upgraded with Crites titanium tweeter diaphragms and the crossovers have been recapped with Sonicap Gen II caps (Crites recap kit). The upgrades were no subtle improvement. This is a great sounding pair of speakers. A pair I would be happy to own and listen to long term. I'm only selling to generate funds and make room for something else. There are a few cosmetic blemishes, but these are highly presentable. They look great despite their minor flaws. There's one veneer chip on the top of one speaker. There are a few other smaller blemishes, nicks, etc, but nothing major. See pics and video below. These are sonically perfect. One of the passive woofers has been repaired. It had a small puncture that was repaired from the inside with paper towel and Elmer's glue. See photos. Any questions, please feel free to ask. If you happen to be on the route from Pittsburgh, PA to Alexandria, VA, act fast, I can deliver these to you tomorrow morning. Price: $750 firm SOLD Location: Franklin, PA 16323 Speakers can be seen and heard here: Lots of pics in this album:https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZUrS8j52BHqMsMKp7 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

314carpenter Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Awesome, thanks for posting. Exactly what I am actively searching for. Too bad that the 650 miles puts me out of the running for them though. Happy Holidays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Double impact. Was always curious about those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
314carpenter Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Tekton Double Impact, I have heard them myself, Huge sound, very impressive. Can take huge power. Were bright in the room I heard them in, and was why the owner ended up selling. Reviews on them say can't be beat for under 20K, but I am not convinced of that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woild you rather have Klipsch gear or a pair of those yourself? They have a very interesting looking "pro" model that got my attention... https://www.tektondesign.com/tekton-pro-audio.html A couple years prior I spoke with the owner and he tried to sell me a pair of the 1812 at a KILLER price point. I had to think long and hard before passing on that deal. For what I paid for my system, makes a hard argument that I could get something that compares or would be better in my room.

I am very impressed with the offerings from Tekton, and feel that that company is moving in the right direction. They fit a niche that you don't find with many current companies. I myself am stuck in an era, and am not comfortable with the "new" sound of modern speakers. Very subjective. The price points from Tekton are incredible. Quality is there too. I have a fair share on the used market recently. What do you make of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite large speakers, people move, no availability to demo often times prior to purchase. Possibly the volume of sales is pretty good as well? Like you said, the price points are appealing.

314carpenter Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I think they are a completely different sounding speaker above 600hz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
