greg928gts Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Gone to a good home I've had these for at least 15 years and I never even listened to them. My plan was to restore them and at the same time make them a matching pair. I was going to make sure the crossovers parts were upgraded and that all the components worked properly, but keep them stock. I just never got to it. They are a part of Klipsch history and I would hate to see someone take the parts out and sell them on ebay and throw the cabinets away. Some people would do that. The money I get for them is not as important to me as making sure they go to a home where they will be kept original, or close to it, and enjoyed as pieces of art, or perhaps even as working speakers. Is there someone reading this who would like to be the next caretakers? I have lots more photographs, so please send me and email and I'll send them to you.

opusk2k9 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 What mid and tweeters are they (I see they 15" woofer)? I have a 1958 shorthorn, it was almost $300 in 1958: The original shorthorn had Stevens Tru-sonic 103LX woofers in them and University midrange and tweeters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg928gts Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 Several interested folks! That's great. Looks like these old dudes will find a good home after all. Here's a few more pics showing the drivers. They are cool old drivers. One of them has the Stephens woofer and the other has an EV 15WK. If I remember correctly, someone years ago told me that the EV woofer was also used in them for a period of time. Can anyone confirm that? I bought another EV 15WK (which will go with this pair of speakers) so I would have matching woofers in the cabinets. The extra one is pictured above. it needs to be reconed. I don't know the condition of any of the other drivers or crossovers, sorry. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungkiman Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Looks like you have different mid drivers too. One Atlas and one University? I love my '59 Shorthorns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willland Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Greg, Good luck with your sale/give away. They look nice. Also, congrats on the new Volti Audio Razz.(I know, free plug) Now a speaker from you that the "common man" can own. I hope they are a big success.
