BLOOMIS914 Posted August 11, 2001 Share Posted August 11, 2001 Jonvan and any other KSP-S6 hunters....Please send me a private message or email me at BLOOMIS914@aol.com. I currently have one pair due next week and will have a second pair within 2 weeks. I also currently own a pair for my current setup below as my signature shows---Those are not for sale. But the 2 other pairs will be. ------------------ My main Klipsch system: KLF-30's Bi-wired KLF-C7 KSP-S6's KSW-15 Front Sub KSW-100 Rear Sub Monster cable 14 gauge in-wall cable Audioquest interconnects Niles SPS-4 speaker switch box Niles wall plates Niles in-wall volume controls Marantz SR-8000 Toshiba SD-4205 5 DVD changer Pioneer PDF-1007 301-CD changer Mitsubishi 35" TV Mitsubishi VCR Pioneer VSX-608 Multi-room amp for Outdoor deck Polk All-weather AW2's deck speakers Panamax DBS-8 Surge Protector Klipsch IC-525's in Master Bath 13" Sony Wega in Master Bath 1 Lava Lamp for Ambience Fridge full of beer and plenty of Don Julio, Jagermeister and Jim Beam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHoff80 Posted August 11, 2001 Share Posted August 11, 2001 Just curious... whats the average selling price of a set of KSP-S6s that are in good condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOOMIS914 Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Jhoff80- Average pair in good/excellent working condition will fetch MSRP-$750/pair, no problem. Good/Excellent condition means no visible scratches, dents, dings and works fine......I've sold 3 pair to BB members around $800/pair. These speakers have been gobbled up and now on the endangered species list (very hard to find, if not impossible). These speakers are excellent and the closest match to the Legend line which is now discontinued. I would be very interested in trading a pair of these for KLF-10's, 20's or 30's or a KLF-C7 or a Paradigm 2200 sub or of course an SVS would be my preferred sub. Anybody interested???? ------------------ My main Klipsch system: KLF-30's Bi-wired KLF-C7 KSP-S6's KSW-15 Front Sub KSW-100 Rear Sub Monster cable 14 gauge in-wall cable Audioquest interconnects Niles SPS-4 speaker switch box Niles wall plates Niles in-wall volume controls Marantz SR-8000 Toshiba SD-4205 5 DVD changer Pioneer PDF-1007 301-CD changer Mitsubishi 35" TV Mitsubishi VCR Pioneer VSX-608 Multi-room amp for Outdoor deck Polk All-weather AW2's deck speakers Panamax DBS-8 Surge Protector Klipsch IC-525's in Master Bath 13" Sony Wega in Master Bath 1 Lava Lamp for Ambience Fridge full of beer and plenty of Don Julio, Jagermeister and Jim Beam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShapeShifter Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Hello to all. I've not been active in quite some time. Between work, work at home & passionate pursuits to procure more Klipsch Speakers...well you get the idea. BLOOMIS - I have a pair of Chorus II's and an Oak KLF-C7 that I'm considering selling or making a possible trade for other Klipsch Speakers. Perhaps we can make some arrangement, if you're interested? I see you're within a few miles me. Today I'm in a bit of a funk, wondering if passing on a pair of Black Quartets on Ebay last night was a good decision. Beside being in California, my concerns were they had a black glossy substance surrounding the outer edges of both woofers. Must get back to household duties. Ah, the perils of being a single home owner.

T2K Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Is there actually someone out there willing to pay $800 for a pair of new-in-original-box w/manuals only test played 3 minutes BLACK KSP-S6's? Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myram Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 LOL.....not a chance would I pay msrp for a pair of 5-6 year old speakers. I justed passed up a pair for $350 because they were in white.....now I am kinda wondering if I should have bought them. ------------------ Home Theater System: Klipsch Quartets - mains for both systems Klipsch KV3 - center Klipsch KG.5's - rear surrounds Klipsch KSW12 subwoofer Denon AVR-1601 JVC 36D201 36" TV JVC HR-S3600 SVHS Player JVC XV-M565BK DVD Player Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2100 Digital Cable box Music System: Adcom GFA-555 Musical Concepts Modified NAD 1600 Pre/Tuner Sony C-67ES CD Player Playstation 2 Monster Power HTS-2000 MIT Speaker Cable RS Gold Interconnects Monster S-Video and Component Cables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonvan Posted August 12, 2001 Author Share Posted August 12, 2001 I will not pay retail for a used pair of speakers, or new pair not sold through a dealer. That being said, I am not blind to the fact that these are hard to come by, and are still reguarded as the best match for some systems, so the price doesn't have to be bargain basement either. Has anyone mounted speakers to brick before? How did they/you do it? wiring, mounting, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quenten Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Correct me if I'm wrong...did'nt BobG make the comment while touting the upcoming "new refs" that the KSP-S6's were the best available match (not a perfect match), and that the RS-7's would match even better! Can't compare them now, but I'm with you guys..no way I'd pay that kinda dough--even for brand new. I listened to a pair in home once. A-B'd them with my KSF-8.5's, new then that I was not a dipole kinda guy. Anyway, to each his own . Now the new refs...I got a serious jones going on there!

ShapeShifter Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Here's an example of an Academy that myram pointed out in another post. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1263334103 The seller had a "Buy It Now" option for $375.00, it's current bid is $450.00. I'm interested in buying a pair of Quartets to replace my KG4's. Anyone know of a Black or Walnut pair for sale? I'd greatly appreciate any heads-up. myram - I looked at the Quartet listing on Ebay that closed last night, but passed. Since you have a pair perhaps you can comment on the black glossy substance that surrounded the edges of both woofers. Can you tell me what it was and is it found on all Quartet woofers? I appreciate any and all comments.

myram Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 ShapeShifter..... Yes all the Quartets have a glossy black appearance around the woofer. I have no idea what it is, but it must just be what they used on those woofers. I purchased my Quartets last year to replace my Kg4's and it was well worth it. I sold my Kg4's for $325 thru eBay, and bought my Quartets for $305 on eBay. Both my buyer, and the person I bought from were located in Boston, MA so I drove down and delivered and picked up all in a days trip. I saw a pair of Quartets on Yahoo classifieds, they are in Conn. and are $375. Check it out and see what the seller has to say about them....I believe they were walnut finish.

ShapeShifter Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 myram - Thanks for the info... However, I've not be able to find that listing from my search of the Yahoo's General Merchandise Listing. If you can email me the link, I'd greatly appreciate it.

BLOOMIS914 Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 OK Guys, I surrender.....I might be a little optimistic to fetch $750-800 for a pair of brand new KSP-S6's BUT there are people on a mission to complete their Legend or Synergy system. Again, with the recent release of the new RS-7's that might take some potential buyers out of the picture. Bottom line, notice I am very interested in working a trade for KLF-C7, Legends or Powered Sub. I am not completely unreasonable! Let me get back to putting these flames out on my A$$.

BLOOMIS914 Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Myram, I am not familiar with the KG .5's, KG 3.2's or KV-3.....Although I may be interested. I will check Klipsch Main Home page for info. regarding these speakers. Would be interested in where I could get more info on them.

myram Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Brett..... They are all listed under the "classic" listings. From the main Klipsch page, go to "home audio" and then "classic", from there you will get a long list of speakers. You can get pictures of most speakers, and specs on all of them there. Send me a PM or email if you decide this is something we can work out.

BLOOMIS914 Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Myram, I just got done checking thtem all out. I am really trying to put together a second system of Legends (KLF's, C7 and KSp-S6's). However, I will let you know in the next week or so if I may be interested.

T2K Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 Let there be no doubt that the S-6's are great surrounds.Also,they are not dipoles.And they are not 5 or 6 year old speakers.They were built from 97-99(check the Classic section if you want to)I believe. I personally have the Synergy Premiere speakers and I CAN tell you this: Add these surrounds to the matching fronts and center and the package comes together in a big way.

ShapeShifter Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 myram - got your email and followed the link. I'm sure you've received my reply by now. They did have the Oak Finish, as you stated in the message. I'm going to hold out for a pair in Black or Walnut. I'd appreciate an alert if you see a pair anytime in the future. Thanks again...Wes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
