Tony T Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I can't help myself. I almost feel guilty for throwing away perfectly good reinforced + styrofoam embossed boxes. Kudos to Klipsch for great design work! Thought I'd give this a try before throwing away. In SW Utah 84737 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Forget the boxes (unless someone wants them) What are you doing with the 402's??? (in another thread if appropriate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidmack Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I have to respectfully disagree with Coytee. I have successfully sold Heresy and Klipschorn boxes on eBay. I believe I got $200 plus shipping on the Klipschorn boxes. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 402's are for a KPT project of mine. Hopefully within 24 hours someone claims the boxes. If not, dumpster trip. I guarantee the speakers/horn lens's aren't going anywhere. At least not in my lifetime. 5 hours ago, tidmack said: I have to respectfully disagree with Coytee.

wstrickland1 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I'm about to ditch perfect LS2 boxes myself. And Palladium/Palladium sub boxes. And McIntosh boxes. And VPI boxes. Nobody wants to buy nor do I truly want to sell any of it so I guess I'll cram them in whatever house we end up in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Sadly, the boxes made it to the dumpster this morning. 😪 Just couldn't see storing them for no good reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooooooooooo, you're going to keep those blonde K402's huh?? Tossing the boxes kind of makes them keepers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USNRET Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Moving in two weeks and I have every box for everything I have purchased (and kept). Cornwalls, SVS PB4000s, McIntosh, phones, ipads, sewing machines, xmas decorations, TVs and mounts, PS4, XBox, routers, switches, security cameras. recorders, those things that make loud noises, computers, monitors...the three attic ladder areas are full. I am close to throwing every box away except the cartons for the McIntosh stuff, 3 Cornwalls and 2 SVS subs. With the Jubs coming that is more BIGGER boxes.

Russian Nested Dolls..... you can put boxes inside of boxes, inside of yet more boxes and like the universe disappearing into a black hole, you can in a very tidy way, put that universe into the new Jubilee boxes. Imagine the torture 'X" years from now when your great grand-children are cleaning up your estate.... "Hey, lookie over here Melvin (did you really have to have a great grand child named Melvin??) There's a big box.... (opens it) DAMN....another box....(opens it) DAMN, another box....(opens it).....rinse & repeat 21 more times and now you need to put a small jewelry box at the heart of it all and put a smiley face in it or something like that. Just make sure they go through your stuff AFTER your funeral...... because before you're buried, they can still get the last laugh in on you.

Tony T Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 As I mentioned early on, the Khorns nor the K-402's aren't going anywhere and since building my retirement home, I'm certainly not going anywhere! While I am a fan of keeping such relics (such as greatly engineered cardboard packaging) it doesn't make sense to store things that take up unnecessary space . Throwing away those boxes felt like throwing away MANY articles recently that I've had kicking around for decades. It was an uncomfortable feeling for a minor horder. I figured I'd save the kids from cleaning up my cluttered mess after I kick the bucket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerwoodKhorns Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I sold a pair of B&W N801s and the buyer paid $1K for boxes from B&W and had them shipped to my house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
