I've finally decided to let go of a bunch of drivers that I've been hoarding for years now because I believed that I would someday build something with them. Sooner or later you get realistic and realize that it just ain't gonna' happen. So, in an effort to lose some speakers, I'm offering up for sale the drivers found here:

Some have asking prices, but the others are open for bidding. Everything is open to negotiation. E-mail me if you're interested in something.

Do you have the T/S parameters and/or did you take any measurements of the frequency response of these drivers?

If by some very odd chance it turns out you can sell a single driver let me know, I might be interested (I have a Klipsch SC-1 that uses these drivers and one of them has a dented dust cap).

have those focal tweeters in some jm labs speakers - find them to have excellent vocal reproduction

Unfortunately I sold them yesterday and shipped them out this morning. I never did get a chance to listen to them, but their construction appeared to be very nice indeed.

You don't happen to have any kind words regarding those Klipsch mid-woofers I'm trying to sell do you? I can't seem to generate a whole lot of interest in those. I'd do better if I had the T/S parameters, but I lost them in a computer crash a couple of years back. :(

How about if you break up the 12 Klipsch drivers into three groups of four each?
I could use four of them for a pair of MTM's. A few other people might be interested in building MTM's too.
I'll give you $60 plus shipping for 4 of the new ones.

If you send them to me, I'll run TS params for you.

Pete,

Thank you for the generous offer. However, it is more effort than I would like to expend at the moment. I have a baby on the way, and I am simply trying to get some floor space by dumping drivers that I know I won't be using. So you see, the title "cleaning out the closet" is a literal statement in this case. :)

Thank you again for your offer.

I accept your proposal. I'll sell you four new drivers for $60.00 + S&H.

If you give me your Zip Code I'll figure out what the shipping costs will be and give you a total purchase cost.

eyekode needs the shielded 5.25 inch driver (K-1079-SV)

The Klipsch web site lists the K-1075 as a 6.5" (16.51cm) woofer.

From reading your description included with your for sale pictures, I thought that they were 5.25 woofers! Not really what I had wanted, but it's OK.
Maybe I'll have to buy 4 more of them from you.

So, how many of these Klipsch mids do you have left?

I currently have four brand new drivers, and four used drivers. As was mentioned earlier, these speakers are actually listed by Klipsch as 6.5" midbass drivers. The actual cone diameter is more like 5.5", so that was what I listed them at.

You packed them up well. They appear to be quite nice, well made.
They are definitely 6.5 inch woofers, not 5.25 inch! Wasn't really what I had wanted to buy, because I already have several 6.5 inch (165 to 170 mm) woofers on hand. The woofer frame/flange is pincushion shape, so it's a bit smaller along the sides, but the cones are not smaller.
You should go back and change your post to read accordingly.
