AaronB123 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I am considering selling my Klipschorn 70th anniversary speakers bought a couple years ago and have literally been sitting in storage for years. I would guess they have less than 10 hours of play time on them if I had to be honest. I bought them then immediately after ended up buying jubilees and storing these. They are 99% mint the only issue is when moving them I used a little hand truck and the lip of the truck got caught on the black baseboard at the front and kind of chipped it. Other than that they are 100% mint and look brand new. They are works of art and sound incredible. To be honest I doubt they are even fully broken in. There is one issue though that I have ran into trying to sell them in the past. They somehow got mixed up at the store I bought them from (onecall.com) and they sent me a mismatched serial number pair. Now they are only one number off but many people that were interested in buying had a big problem with that. Obviously that doesn't affect how they sound but I suppose it will affect resale value down the line if the buyer decided to sell them. I also do not have the boxes anymore as they were huge and I had to get rid of them. I am in the CT area and definitely do not want to ship these so local pick up or someone willing to travel would definitely be ideal. Asking 12,000 OBO Unfortunately the site has an extremely small size limit on photos so if anyone is interested I can send them through email or text.

Schu Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 She's right... they are both furniture and a speaker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original post has been updated. I am asking 12k now please tell me guys if you think that's a a fair price. I know everyone on here is honest and I've met nothing but good people on here. I know them being a mismatched pair that will limit my interest like I mentioned but that does not affect how they sound or look. The only time that may affect them is if the buyer wanted to sell them down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 you should also mention that this release of Klipschorn came with the sealed backs... having stupidly selling my 70th La Scala II's, I think that asking price is a very reasonable starting price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronB123 Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 Yes you are very right about that and truthfully I really don't want to sell these I would rather wait until my wife and I get a house and use them but financially I could use the money right now. I guess if they sell they sell if they dont I will enjoy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the la scala's are incredible speakers. To this day they are one of my favorite speakers I have owned from Klipsch. Sounds to me like you actually like them better than the K-horns?

tidmack Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I haven't been on the forum lately, but saw this post and wanted to bump it. I saw Aaron's Klipschorns earlier this year and can vouch for their condition. They're absolutely stunning...the woodgrain on these looks ridiculously cool.
