I have a pair of Klipsch Forte I. A potential project. The pair is from the '80s, I believe, and they are cosmetically rough. So, the low rating. That said, the bases are the worst, and could be rebuilt. The pair were the stock black color when I found them, and very neglected - so I stripped the paint and stained the veneer. This is an amateur job as you can see. This was a fun project several years back. Sonically they sound excellent.
I replaced the diaphragms in the tweeters with Crites.
I replaced the original electronics with Crites crossovers, and have also further upgraded those caps and used tinned copper wiring throughout.

Big and ugly. Yes. Take a close look at the photos.
Great sounding speakers that could also be a cool restoration project. I am out of space so they need to go.

Local sale only.
Come listen to them.
