Vintage (70s?) Klipsch La Scalas

Recommended Posts

I’ve inherited a couple vintage Klipsch La Scala speakers, history mostly unknown other than they’ve been connected to an old transistor-style organ for the last decade or so. They were working when disconnected. Has some surface blemishes, as you can see in the photos, but no obvious damage. These will most certainly mean more to someone in here than they do to me, so asking for any reasonable offer. 
 

Located between Robinson, IL and Vincennes, IN.

Can message additional photos directly if needed. Serious individuals only please.

Often referred to as "screw tops", I believe they were associated with the Hammond Organ Company. Most probably survive without the amp intact. I have a pr that I got from Daddy Dee. My guess would be in the $1000 to $1400 range if everything still works.

@jenna1500$  ---  these organ speakers are  hardware wise   /woofers , midrange , tweeters   in top shape

 

-these are 1976   LS speakers come with the rare copper  Laser badges , + the optional Solid State 100wpc Mono amplifiers ,and tone controls  , this type was mostly used in Churches and Organs or PA , meaning these  speakers were  never abused ,  there are minimal repairs needed to the cabinet ,  so a bit of wood filler and black paint would restore the finish .

Curious does each one have the midrange and tweeter controls? Those are add-ons. Also does each have an amp mounted inside? Is it a tube amp or solid state? Amp(s) would be an add-on also.

Yes, both have the controls.

They were connected to a Rodgers organ, so you are correct!
