Mr. Blorry Posted May 14, 2001 Share Posted May 14, 2001 I must say I am quite impressed with the new website. Much more comprehensive, very slick. Nice job! I have a huge question though, and please say it is so! Look under "Home Audio" and one will find the "Classic" series. Notice how many speakers there are! Stuff from days gone by...ah, the good ol' da--WAIT! There are PRICES beside some of these speakers! Sure, the blurb says that these models are no longer in production, but why would Klipsch put a price tag beside something that is no longer available??? Tell me it's true! I can special order a pair of Cornwalls???? OK, I noticed there is no price beside either the Shorthorn 12 or 15 --well DAMN! But there certainly is a price beside the Cornwalls!!! And the KG series, the 50th Anniversary K-Horn, and so on. What gives?? Can I give my friendly K-dealer a call TOMORROW and order up a fresh pair of Corny IIs OR WHAT!!

boa12 Posted May 14, 2001 Share Posted May 14, 2001 mr. b, fraid not on the corns. that's im sure just for info purposes as i've seen many in posts inquiring as to the msrp on past models. wonder if it's the last msrp before being discontinued? looks like it. if u need a nice pair of '84 corns refinished in cherry & black mesh grills, i've got a pair for ONLY $10K or there's always those that pop on ebay sometimes for usually around 700-1K. ------------------ Klipsch KLF 30 (front), KLF C-7, Cornwall I (rear) Velodyne HGS-18 sub woofer Monsterbass 400 sub interconnects & Monster CX-2 biwire & Z-12 cable Marantz SR-8000 receiver Sony DVP-C650D cd/dvd player Sony Trinitron 27" stereo tv Toshiba hi-fi stereo vcr Technics dual cassette deck Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2000 digital cable box Boa's Listenin Lounge: Klipsch RF-3 (front), RC-3, cheap little Technics (rear) Monster MCX Biwires Sony STR-DE935 a/v receiver Kenwood KR-9600 AM/FM stereo receiver(stereo power amp for rf-3) Teac PD-D1200 5-disk cd changer Technics direct drive turntable Sega Genesis game player Sub: None yet rock on!

Guest JimG Posted May 15, 2001 Share Posted May 15, 2001 Boa is correct. I wanted to show the last MSRP of the product before it was discontinued. That was so everyone who says "How much was my model X when it was new" would now have an answer. I also tried to show the correct time period matches for centers and rears and such for the models for everyone who wants to find old models to match old models, vs. getting something current because it is the closest match we currently make.

Mr. Blorry Posted May 15, 2001 Author Share Posted May 15, 2001 CRAP!c>s>Well, OK. I guess I understand. Sheesh. I wonder how many orders for special order speakers you guys would get if that plan was in place! Wishful thinking, that's all!

Jim Cornell Posted May 16, 2001 Share Posted May 16, 2001 YEA, i think im in the same boat with my cornwalls, ive got a pair in laminated birch, and a pair that are birch plywood! Id sell both pair for 15K, these arent going anywhere, unless im dead!! Then i could save more and just be burried in one!! I was going to trade a pair for Heresys and cash, because 2 pair is to much, but oh well, i love them both, and were moving into a bigger place soon!! The other day i put 50 watts into them, thats 200 watts into all 4 speakers, and ill tell ya, if i ever want a nightclub im set on equipment!! I was heard thru half the town!!
