MechEngVic Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Price is a bit high but they look in good condition, I would definitely haggle. https://www.ebay.com/itm/KLIPSCH-QUARTET-Speakers-pair-/264512174447?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEUS121996 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 A bit high? 🙄🙄 Mark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofers and Tweeters Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 "$248.00 Standard Shipping" = $947.00... Worth it. Don't let them get away, hit the BIN button before you have the "I should have" regrets.... BTW, I have a pair in Walnut that you can have for the same price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byson1 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 There was black set here in Nashville a while back on CL that didn't sell. He had the price lowered to $350. The corners did have some minor damage though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvs1670 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Had 2 different pairs of those, no way are they worth that in my opinion....just wasn't that impressed, sold both pairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Think about this......IMHO Quartets perform at about 80-85% of Forte II's.....smaller footprint, sound great, don't overwhelm the current interior requirements of the current generation AND the major growing BOOMER generation who are in the process of downsizing.....so why wouldn't they be gaining in value? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more than just minor damage because you cant fix MDF that has been well watered. I had a set a couple of years ago I could not get rid of. Finally scrapped them and the parts brought over $700. I figure I got lucky and never again. I didn't think much of them and can't figure out why they have such a good reputation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I got my Chorus 2’s, the Fortes and Quartets became superfluous (first time ever using that word in a sentence). What surprised me when it came time to sell the Quartets was how good they sounded compared to their bigger brothers. And the gentleman that bought them to use in his condo was equally impressed. The Linda Rondstat CD he brought to demo them with clinched the deal, lol. People are asking, and getting, more money for Heresys. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but Quartets do more. And that is before refreshing the crossovers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 } I have a set sitting against the wall, in a corner, looking lonely. As a Famous Bonehead often states - “they sound ok” — Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, they're not. @wvu80 might tell us what the averages for each are. The Forte II in Good condition averages $534, the Quartet $395. FYI the Forte I averages $493 according to my Heritage Prices spreadsheet. The last three reported Quartet sales were 400, 500, 200.

Peter P. Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I agree that used Quartet pricing should be lower than used Forte pricing, and typical used Forte pricing in my area is around $500. As has been mentioned, Quartets are a slightly smaller Forte so they're more convenient and more aesthetically acceptable in smaller environments. I bought mine with one slightly water damaged top, for $250. There's currently a pair for sale at a reasonable $500 near Worcester MA.
