Klipsch Heritage Klipschorn Speaker Pairs (Black Ash)

My dad was a cabinet maker and he built a corner speaker to Klipsch's specs for a hi-fi system in the early 60's, pre-stereo. Then, in the 70's my college audiophile friends were always talking about Klipsch speakers. Finally, in the early 80's I happened to be in a stereo shop looking for something completely different when the guy said, "Hey, let me show you something upstairs." Brand new pair of K-horns in oak. Price: $3200 for the pair. Out came the Master Card and the K-horns are still in my living room 40-years later.

I sold all my possessions to buy these. Unfortunately I have not listened to them yet as I am now homeless. Someday I hope to live indoors again and have a place to plug them in, then I can start saving for a turntable.

I bought my Klipsch corner horns in 1980 or so, drove them at first with a Bedini 100/100 amp. I invited some friends over who owned various systems, partisans all. But when I put on Gary Wright singing “Dream Weaver” jaws dropped. The crystalline highs, the spectacular bass sound wave, the crush of sound was amazing. A few months ago I ran into one of those friends after so many years and after nice howdy, his first question…”you still have those Klipsches?” Sure do. I expect they will be a listed asset in my estate when I return to a collection of sub atomic particles.

The first time I heard Corner Horns, I was blown away. That was in 1977 and I knew that one day I would own a pair.The speakers ooze quality not only in the outstanding audio reproduction but in the fit, the choice of wood and the outstanding finish.The Corner Horns are not for everyone, they do take up a lot of room but as they are nested in room corners, it is less than a person may think. The audio reproduction is outstanding and due to the very efficent design, a low power amp can drive them to ear splitting levels with only a few watts of power. Yes that is right, not hundreds or even dozens but simply under ten watts will be more than needed while you listen to audio reproduction second to none.I have owned my Corner Horns for over ten years and they will never be sold while I am alive!

I first heard these when my brother bought them in the 70's and decided that I had to get them to....saved my pennies and got mine in 1984! I have loved them ever since! No problems at all in 2020 and are unsurpassed in sound quality to this day!!! I paired them with a Macintosh receiver and a Ramsa power amp; which have also stood the test of time. Klipschorn are a 10 out 10! 😍

I bought my corner horns in 1976. I'm using a McIntosh MC 2100 power amp. I have them in my wide open basement. So, I have a 50 X 30 foot auditorium. It just doesn't get any better ! Any music lover who hears my system is totally blown away.
