Maximus89 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Just a heads up gents. The seller has shown me 1 photo of a faded out serial number. The serial shows the first 3 digits which is day of year and then a 5 before it fades. The 5 would be followed by a 9 in a Y2Y1 format. This places it as a Version 3 CF-4 since its late 95. Note also the "CF-4- M" and then a faded E which looks to be MEDIUM OAK and not cherry. That dash after CF-4 seems to be only used on version 3 dates placed exactly above the 5 or 6 of Y2, though i cant confirm if late version 2(early 95) have that second dash as well. Every 94 serial examined on the net has no dash after CF-4. One possibility is that the seller has a mismatched pair, 1 cherry of a different date and possibly earlier version and 1 medium oak version 3. Both of which have the longer ports added which is a simple modification to make. Seller has not given any more photos of the second speakers serial number and said he could not see internal wiring, only assumed based on port tube length. "I couldn’t see any wires but it is a version one With the longer port tubes so should have ofc clear cabling according to all the forums " This is not to offend the seller in any way, Only giving heads up to potential buyers that at least 1 of these speakers are not version 1 or 2 cabinet. The horns also do look darker than the gray horns of version 1 or 2, but lighting can differ so that's not a solid proof of anything. Also don't think the seller is aware, so no blame on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always hard to tell from just one photo, but at this angle the numbers look to me like they have been wiped away with a cleaner or solvent rather than faded by the sun. Again, it could just be a quirk of this photo. There are a lot of earlier Heritage pieces that have fading on the inked part of the label, but fortunately many of those have duplicate serial numbers stamped into the cabinets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I had some Cherry CF4 and they were a lot more red than golden. Looks like the Oak might have been Tiger Striped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fault. The guy on usaaudiomart is listing my speakers while trying to negotiate to buy them. They were made in 95. I figure ver 3. They are no longer for sale as I decided to keep them and sell my CF-1s. I do NOT blame anyone on the Klipsch forums for the misinformation. I do blame the guy running the ad for trying to sell something he didn’t own. Have a great Klipsch day. FlaPapa Florida Papa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
