ZplyonZ Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Well, now that my Khorns are in place and sounding great I need to find a home for my beloved Scalas. These are finished in Cherry veneer with nice mouldings. Take a look: http://home.grandecom.net/~cplyons/Right_Scala.jpg http://home.grandecom.net/~cplyons/scala1.jpg These are from 1977, Serial number for the one in this photo is 9R653. I can't read the SN from the other (faded out), but they appear and sound identical and all the labels look the same, so I presume they are from the same run and probably sequential. All the drivers are original and they sound FANTASTIC... in some ways better than the Khorns in my listening room. But I won't be living here forever, so the scalas gotta go. The AA crossovers have been rebuilt by our own Bob Crites to be switchable between A and AA configuration. For my review of the rebuild, please see this old thread: http://forums.klipsch.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=55854&forumID=71&catID=19 I have also damped the squawkers with rope caulk and stuffed the top chamber with insulation. These are truly ready to install and enjoy! Here's a pic of the other one and the back: http://home.grandecom.net/~cplyons/Right_Scala.jpg http://home.grandecom.net/~cplyons/scala3.jpg Price from right here in Austin is $1,000.00 Let me know...

Moderators Travis In Austin Posted July 31, 2005 Moderators Share Posted July 31, 2005 Nice to see another Forum member her in Austin, I wish you had these for sale last year. Good luck with your sale, they look very nice in the photos. Did you finish those yourself? Travis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Those are beautiful! $1k is a steal for such nicely finished Lascalas! I'm not sure I've seen a nicer pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZplyonZ Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 These were veneered to order by the guy I bought them from, an air traffic controller in Houston. I put the wrong link to the other one in my earlier message, so here is the other one: http://home.grandecom.net/~cplyons/Left_Scala.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddy Dee Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Those are very nicely done. I think the top is a creative touch. Good WAF, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZplyonZ Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 Thanks for the kind words, everybody. No one seems motivated enough to pick up the phone or drop me a line though... So I will give it one more shot here before these go on Craig's List and then the dreaded eBay... Again, original drivers, nice veneer, crossovers rebuilt by Bob Crites, built right around the height of the quality years of cabinetry in Hope... And the horn loaded sound is THRILLING. If you have any interest now is the time to act! thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
