Moderators Travis In Austin Posted January 6, 2019 Moderators Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) SOLD (less then one hour) thank you to the buyer and newest member of Klipsch Herritage Museum Association. News One-time Opportunity Sale Of Museum Edition Klipschorn AK6-ME A RARE BEAST FULL BROCHURE DOWNLOAD CLICK HERE. In addition to the legendary acoustics and impressive upgrades already included in the AK6, the Klipsch Museum of Audio History is proud to offer a limited production of one (1) pair of unique Museum Edition Klipschorns – Numbered AK6 ME-001 and AK6 ME-002 – with official documentation verifying their provenance.HANDSOMELY APPOINTED The units are custom veneered with Black Limba (Terminalia Superba), a beautiful West African species who’s lower trunk wood yields deep, radiating markings. Often used for guitar bodies and heirloom boxes, Black Limba’s grain pattern is said to be reminiscent of sound waves. DuraCrest has been supplying Klipsch Heritage loudspeaker grilles for nearly half a century. To celebrate the creation of the Museum Edition Klipschorns they have crafted a resplendent woven licorice and chocolate cloth that expertly complements the Black Limba’s depth and hue. “We have been tasked with the responsibility of doing what we do best... building beautiful grilles for Klipsch. We are calling it Klipsch #18-45 M . 18 is for the color designation, 45 is the number of years DuraCrest has been building grilles for Klipsch, and M for Museum.” – Ralph Fortino Jr. TRULY UNIQUE Official Museum Edition plaques are affixed to the rear of each speaker enclosure – numbered and hand-signed by Roy Delgado, Jr. – PWK protégé and acoustic designer of the Klipschorn AK6. The Museum Edition Klipschorns also feature hand-matched AK6 crossover networks and drivers, personally selected by Roy.

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted January 8, 2019 Author Moderators Share Posted January 8, 2019 These are SOLD. They sold within an hour of being listed, multiple offers. More info to follow about buyer, build, delivery, etc. (a great and longtime Klipschfan). LaScala Museum Edition to be listed soon, I will give advance notice of time they are going up. They will be exactly like the Museum Edition Khorns except . . . they will be the brand new AL5 LaScalas (same Tractrix tweeter and neodymium driver as AK6 Khorns).* *They will have a different Museum Membership that will be offered as part of the sale. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panelhead Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 When I read the released details of the AK6 and AK5 La Scala’s I must have been reading and comprehending two different items. I THOUGHT these latest TOL Heritage models had switched to titanium diaphragms. Not sure that it makes a difference. Wife would not let another pair in the house. She asks why a new pair of H iii are boxed up in the attic. Try to keep her out of the attic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
