Ive been offered a set of Klipsch Cornwalls . The paper tag on the back is scratched but what I can make out is CD BR 10R517. 

Any thoughts on age and Value . They are asking $500.00 . They do sound amazing !!

As he remembers he bought them in 1977. All thoughts on these are appreciated.

Pair of Klipschorns, Stamped Number on back of top piece, 128990 and 128991, cannot locate any info on any database anywhere, help?

is it possible   ?   that  the  3rd digit of the serial numbers  is a letter , either B or S   rather than the digit  8

KLIPSCH S/N FORMATS

1990-1997(?) DOY Y2Y1 #### 135791234

1962-1983 Letter format

A = 1962 F = 1967 K = 1972 R = 1977 X = 1982

D = 1965 I = 1970 N = 1975 U = 1980

E = 1966 J = 1971 P = 1976 W = 1981

NOTES

1946-1961 dates can only be found in log book (eng. Library)

DOY= day of the year

YY=year (i.e. 99,00)

Y2Y1=2nd digit of year, 1st digit of year

WW=week of the year

Date code on drivers (1994) Example - 9429 = 1994, 29th week of the year / YYWW

Klipschorns of this vintage had the s/n hammer stamped into the tailboard, woofer access door or inside the woofer chamber.

 

I was finally able to get inside the speaker to look for a #.  It appears to be stamped and says 225-01  and, is there something after??  

Please let me know what this stamp means? Here's a pic..  Thanks!  The speakers I'm referring to are Klipschorns.

Hey folks! We got tired of digging up this page every time we needed to look up a klipsch serial, so we built a tool to do it, based on this info. We figured it might be useful to others, so we made it public: https://auralfetish.com/pages/klipsch-serial-number-lookup

these stamps are  plywood manufacturer  batch numbers   ,  and no , these speakers are not  klipschorns , they are home built speakers using  a DIY drawings kit  .

Hiya!

 

I have 2 RF7's and an RC7 that I bought brand new (maybe 15-20 years ago?) I'm curious about the manufacture date, and what they may be worth. I have ZERO plans to sell these as they have been my constant companions. 

 

RC7bk - 04390062

 

RF7bk - 04450093

 

Both were inspected by Barbara Miller (just in case anyone knew her :)  )
