Tried to email him several times but horrible/useless responses. If they are V1/2, maybe "WE" should get it ... each a spare set of woofers and a horn ... maybe I can use the walnut boxes and you can have my oak ones Just thinking out loud Link https://sarasota.craigslist.org/ele/d/klipsch-cf-3/6868474814.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like oak. But like everything, it goes in and out of favor. In the 80's, you got premium prices for oak antiques, and you couldn't give mahogany away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Whenever the talk of oak comes up, I think of Pulp Fiction. "How about you Jimmy, you an oak man"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oicu812 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 @Emile I have a suggestion for you. Cue up "Finish What Ya Started - Van Halen" and give it a medium volume listen on the Epics. Nice clean recording, and no real or added distortion. Let me know how they sound. *<;o) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
