Sharon H Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Hello, I'm helping my mother sort out some things at her house and she has a pair of LA SCALA speakers in great condition she wants to sell - I have many fond memories as a child of my parents throwing parties in the 70s with these babies blaring Fleetwood Mac. I found a link to the codes for Heritage and understand part of the coding refers to La Scala, Birch, and the year 1977. Does anyone have any other info to share that I should know, and what would be a fair price to ask for these and best way to find a buyer? Is it normal for the guts of them to be exposed at the back? We are in Australia so understood it depends on local demand. Wish we could keep them but they just take up too much space.. Thanks! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 very nice... post a location. everything looks normal and unmolested. Post them in the garage sale section here for about 3k-3.5k and be willing to deal on them. more pictures always help... specifically of any dings or water staining.

Since these are fairly rare in Australia, they would command a somewhat higher price than in the US, particularly if the cosmetics are as good as they appear in the photo. And yes, it is normal for the "guts" to be exposed at the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I think I would get rid of some other things before I'd sell them. .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I'm having a vision of @Full Rangeon "walk about" looking for those speakers. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babadono Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I certainly don't know much about Australia and the used speaker market there but a quick search revealed this: https://www.aussieaudiomart.com/ Maybe post a listing on the site? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OO1 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 @Sharon HYou can post these speakers for Sale on the Garage Sale of the klipsch Forum for Australian and NZ klipsch Forum members , such speakers are very rare in Australia or NZ . A conservative price for these speakers is 5000 $ USD /converted into Australian currency , since the overall condition is Mint or in Showroom condition .

jimjimbo Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 How exactly do you know that they are "mint" from one photo of the front? You don't. Please stop offering your misinformed conjecture at every turn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you are in Australia like myself - My advice is Join https://www.stereonet.com/forums/discover You can ask any questions you have and also sell them from the site after you post a predetermined number of posts And free to sell Hi Fi equipment https://www.aussieaudiomart.com/ Price guide In Australia the price is normally doubled from the US price If you are in Brisbane - I can have a look at them for you 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
