KLH Model 17 Speakers

Henry Kloss KLH Model 17's were found today, I have yet to try the KLH models.

This pair will need a bit of work as the nice walnut veneer was painted flat black.

I started to elbow grease some of the paint off, more of that later.

I did add a really thin layer of silicon around the cloth surround, to re dope them and keep the acoustic suspension intact.







More on these speakers at a later.

  1. The silicone is not a good doping solution. Look up Vintage AR on ebay. He sells the best solution as it uses the same butyl in toluene solution that AR and KLH used.
