Are these legit bottoms?

A lot about them look real but I don't recall seeing that wide of a panel in the center before.  Normally the center front of the horn is pointed, not flat.

The copy says the bottoms are special order for a theatre chain with Fostex woofers.

What are you referring to?  What copy?

 

From the ad they seem custom.

Quoted:

Top cabinets are correct to the pro series but the lower ones are built to a much larger cabinet and are using a fostex driver. All drivers have been checked over and simply sounds amazing. Extremely efficient to run at about 104db at 1 watt ..... meaning you don’t have to waste your money on a huge amp to run them on. People like to run tube amps on them for that reason.

 

Other quote:

It is believed that this was from a custom order for a theatre chain back in the day.

 

But I would love to check them out, though not for $3200.

Yes and when I opened it, the text did not say special order.   It said --> It is believed that this was from a custom order for a theatre chain back in the day.

And also this --> Top cabinets are correct to the pro series but the lower ones are built to a much larger cabinet and are using a fostex driver.

 

Was I looking in the wrong place?

That is why I added a brochure of the closest configuration that I can find that was Klipsch.

Too bad someone from Klipsch doesn't chime in.

More interesting reading

I believe they were licensed by Klipsch for theater use.  TSCM and some others:
