Vince1966 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 seeing if there is any interest in my 1980 Walnut Belles, one tiny chip in the veneer, JEM performance caps installed, all drivers original. Sequential SN. I built a pair of folded horn subs to extend the lows. great sound for a big room. Asking $3500. Sorry for the bad images, will take some better ones 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OO1 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Vince , ,these are the most beautiful Belles we've seen in a long time on the Forum , and rarer given they have the klipsch copper laser badges which were only made for a very short time , klipsch used the badges until they ran out of them in 79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince1966 Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 Thank you, My only reason for selling them is to afford a pair of 1976 Klipschorns in Lacquered Walnut that have come up locally, and needing the space to put them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieStl Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Did the same with my Belle's. Fits perfect and adds that little missing bottom end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveh Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Hi Vince…I might be passing by your way next week. Any chance I could listen to them? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince1966 Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 Well, after much Nagging by my wife against the Klipschorns, I am keeping the Belle's. Women? (see my other listing for the Klipschorns, Helping him out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nola Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I have a single Belle being used as a center between Khorns. No under Belle sub as you have and mine is still on carpet runners with a 1/2 inch air gap to floor. For reasons utterly unknown to me the Belle sounds better and with deeper bass than the Khorns - and the Khorns are on wooden slats on top of the hardwood floor and in sealed off corner positions. Enjoy !! From NOLA with love. I am in the French Quarter are you near Mobile? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 All your doing with the cabinet below the Belle is turning into a bass reflex speaker which defeats the purpose of horn loading. Better to just add a competent sub and leave the Belle engineering alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good bass to 30HZ! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I'm guessing Charles missed the comment about the sub and presumed he did the "ported mod" that some have done with their laScalas. I don't mean to speak for him but it's my gut feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
