Nice Klipschorns for sale in Seattle area

[Ki Choi]

Guys:

I posted the same message as a reply to one of my original WTB ad but thought to try as a new post for better audience.

I've been too successful in asking the group to help me "locate" K-horns. I am considering selling my first pair to make room (one of its pair shown in the attached photo). This pair is credited for turniing me onto K-horns in a big way...

They are K-C-FR model and SNs: 3J512 and 3J513 Circa, '71s. Thus, the speakers have all original Alnico magnets and drivers.

Bougth them from a local original owner few month ago.

There are few blemishes but over all they are in perfect working and excellent cosmetic conditions.

Here's a list of things that keep the speakers from being perfect:

1) the original owner liked them so much he engraved his Washington State Drivers Licence number to each mid driver cover. It still plays fine...

2) there is a single 1/8" wide 3/4" long black mark or burn line on top of one of the cabinets, you have to look for it.

3) the original owner liked big plants as well. He place on of his plant pots near one of the k-horns and watered the plant too much... wetting his carpet and letting one of the cabinet soak up the water causing it stain at the very bottom. It caused some rust in the screws that can be replaced and water marks. (Photos can be supplied if needed) Since I can't see it from where I sit, I haven't bothered to fix it.

4) he also experimented staining the wood by trying the idea out on one or the rear top support bar but not going any further.

Let me know if you would be interested in them and your expert opinion on what they might be worth.

Thanks,

Ki
