HDBRbuilder Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 I can't give you Cornwall prices over the years, but as long as the LaScala and Cornwall were built concurrently there were just a very few dollars difference between a pair of raw LaScalas and a pair of walnut Cornwalls....if that gives you any idea.

IndyKlipschFan Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 If you have a stereo store near you they will have a Blue Book like any auto dealer would have. They will list the list price then and what they are worth today. (Be forewarned..They are worth a LOT more today used than what is in the book trust me.) A good set of Cornwalls today, very clean etc., etc., all original parts, and on Ebay for YR. 1985. (You have Cornwall I's BTW, Which to most, are more desirable, they should go any where from say 700-1500, with most on Ebay going for 700-900.) If your selling, I suggest you post PICS and offer it here first. You already have a captive audience of Klipsch lovers, and I am sure you will get a fair price too.

Audible Nectar Posted December 25, 2002 Share Posted December 25, 2002 In 1988, my friend purchased a new set of Cornwall II's in birch raw. They listed for $1520, he bought them for $1400. The birch raw was the least expensive - other finishes were as much as $1890 at list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopar dave Posted December 25, 2002 Author Share Posted December 25, 2002 thanks for all the replys guys. i built mine for about $500 so i guess i did o.k. at first listen they seemed alittle bright, but the more i listen the better they sound. my father helped build them , and i think he got the klipsch bug. he wants to build a pair of belle's. i need AA networks and mid horns. does anyone know where i may find them. watching ebay. later dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
