  1. Picked this up for $75 from an old duck headed fir a nursing home. It was her old boys but passed about 8 years ago. Mint condition. Plugged in and sounds fantastic. Pros and cons. Be as nice or as brutal as you like.
  2. Check this out. The old boy I bought the amp off attached Timber to the side of the onkyo cabinet. Looks mint!
  3. I picked up the amp onkyo for $250 last night. It's awesome quality, nicely matched.
  4. Thanks man. I'm just loving the new sound. I've been rotating between the JBL TLX12s, Dali Concept 6s and vintage Kreisler's. When brought the Chorusii into the living room my partner have me a dirty look and queried where I intended to put them. Iovrd the Dali's out and these are here to stay. I keep mentioning to her how more incredible these speakers sound, she looks at me like I'm a nutcase....lol..
  5. We have a "hard rubbish" collection here wrre the city council once a year will take away your unwanted stuff. Where I was driving through this day was a relatively new suburb, established mid late 90's. People put all kinds of amazing stuff to be taken away. They couldn't have been there for long. Some people collect and re sell si it's total pit luck. In the pic with the pair, on the buffet at the back right you can just see another speaker. Vintage Kreisler's, great condition. Same deal, sitting on the verge fir collection.
  6. Absolutely. To good to be true sometimes. So I've searched the net for more info and what I see is that these are highly regarded in the Klipsch range. What did they originally retail for in the 80's. I see they still sell fir anywhere between $750 and $1500. They must have cost a bit in thier day.
  7. See attached. They are in great condition. When these were first released I could only afford a pair of JBLs, TLX12's. Which I still own.
  8. Hahaha... can I post a pic. I've taken half a dozen.
  9. Driving along the road I noticed two bug black boxes sitting on a footpath just off the road. They'd been put out for a hard rubbish collection with other offs and ends. I was very curious. They looked an odd size for a floor standing speaker, but definitely some kind of speaker. So I turn around and drove back to take a look. These were a large black speaker box with cloth grills intact. I got out of my car to take a closer look. Klipsch. Apart from some minor chipped edges these looked ok. I pull off the covers and everything looked sweet. So I picked up these heavy buggers and stuck them into my back of my vehicle. When I arrived home late in the day I pulled the speakers out of my car and plugged them into my little Marantz amp. Wow!!! They sounded sweet. So I've dug around and found that I am now the owner if a pumping set of Chorus ii speakers. So things have rapidly progressed. I've picked up an Onkyo Integra a-8067. The place is pumping now!!! What are the chances, such a fantastic find. I am stoked.
