ishcabible Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Selling my Klipsch Forte IIs because I have too many speakers and speaker projects so these are next up on the chopping block. I’m going to miss these a lot as they’re my second pair of Fortes but now I have more speakers than I do have rooms. I don’t know any details about the finish but they do look nice with some chips along the base. The horns also do have some cracks but does not affect function. I do have the original grills. I damped the internals with dynamat and denim insulation, but that can be removed if requested. I do feel like this helps them sound cleaner though, as I compared them with one stock and one modded and the stock one sounded noticeably muddier. Asking price is $725. I don’t have boxes so I’d prefer not to ship. I live in Boston. I don’t quite know the value of these now so if this is priced too high, I will listen to offers. 633500C9-6971-473B-BDF5-DA30E2B9F2C2.webp 4B962416-1AAB-4ABE-AFE9-6301293FC72F.webp 49603ED9-6154-451A-8608-0A495CE1DDE6.webp Edited May 11, 2022 by ishcabible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davis419b Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 They look like they started out oak and somebody put walnut stain on them and ruined them. That is just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishcabible Posted May 11, 2022 Author Share Posted May 11, 2022 Thank you! I’ve dropped the price a bit to reflect that it’s been refinished but still listening to offers; I just want these out of the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
