Parrot Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Nice, and with those cool clear Klipschorn badges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triceratops Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I am assuming these are 1961 Khorns--a matched pair! I have a pair of consecutive numbered khorns from 1960 and I think most of you know a matched pair from this era is very rare--considering the cost of a pair of Klipschorns at the time, and the relative newness of two-channel stereo. The advertised Khorns are type "C" (no riser between HF and bass bin) which ordinarily would be slightly less desirable than type "B"--but LOOK at these photos. Ribbon mahoghany--OMG, at least in the photos these look stunning and pristine! I hope someone on the Forum jumps on these! Beautiful!! best in horns, triceratops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymd Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Those look very similiar to Larry's '62 "B" models. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwhaples Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Got 'em Yesterday! Congrats! They do look nice! Had a chance to give them a listen? Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnodee Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks! Haven't listened much yet, I have to get some foam or something to seal the rear because the closest I can get to the corners is within 3 1/2 inchs of the wall due to baseboard heat.

Haven't listened much yet, I have to get some foam or something to seal the rear because the closest I can get to the corners is within 3 1/2 inchs of the wall due to baseboard heat. take the side grilles off and you should be able to snug them up to the corners. I have hot water heat here also. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
