I bought some 1977 Klipsch La Scalas used a couple of years ago and they sounded excellent from Day one after I bought them! Then to refurbish them somewhat I purchased new "balancing networks (crossovers) and new more modern tweeters both from Bob Crites, a very well known maker of replacement and improvement parts for old Klipsch speakers and now they sound even better! Old audiophile speakers like Klipsch and were built to last, and they do.
Today we live in a world of disposable electronics, not repairable that need replacing every few years. Sich sad and TRUE!
