circuitrider41 Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 I have a pair of KLH 9 in very - very nice shape. Walnut. I'd like to sell for a fair price. circuitrider41@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speaker dave Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 I had a pair for a number of years in the 80's.They had some great qualities and some not so great qualities. They were very directional and you always felt like you were wearing headphones from across the room. A clear stereo image that pulled you into the recording.They were not totally neautral, a bit colored but I don't remember the exact sound because it has been a while! Output level was limited, at least at LF. You were always pushing it to get just a little louder and then a bass note would come along...With the right record there was a magical quality. This was during the LP era and it seemed like one record in 50 was good enough to sound like real music and make me forget all the other issues.Advice: consider a sub and be wary of the condition of all the panels (arcing).David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
