moray james Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 You have a pair of Forte with the 12" passive in oiled oak. The Forte ll has an upgraded mid horn and a 15" passive. There are date codes available sorry I don't have that on my computer I think there is a sticky for the manufacture dates. Someone will have it.

moray james Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 it says right on the label that you have Forte in oiled oak where as a Forte ll would say "Forte ll" and it would have the 15" passive and the hybrid tractrix mid horn. front shot of Forte ll Rear shot of Forte ll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted May 26, 2020 Moderators Share Posted May 26, 2020 Those forte's were inspected by Bodark, R Wyatt who is retired now. And he was the guy holding all the screws to put a khorn together in the old advisement, it said "we really put the screws into building a Khorn" couldn't find a pic of it. And the other was inspected by J Townsend who is management in the plant now. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
