Would like to purchase (or trade for or a little of each-I'm easy) a pair of Klipsch Forte II speakers somewhere near me. I've got a pair of ADS L-880's (with sand-filled powdercoated stands) that are very nice but don't do it for me when it comes to rock and electric blues, which I love. They sound great on acoustic blues, bluegrass and jazz though. Plus I have several tube amps and the ADS's like more power and or solid state amps. Thanks.

    Where's "somewhere near me"? I have a pair of Forte IIs I've been contemplating letting go of. Finish is Oak clear, near mint 'cept a faint water ring on the top of one. No scratches or dented corners. Grills are perfect with badges. Build stickers are both present, sequential serial numbers. Would be pretty tough to find an all original , unmoddifed pair in nicer condition. I'm in SE PA, zip 19606.

    Hi Dave,
    I tried twice to respond with my schedule but the board won't let me send you another PM within that same "thread" of PM's. Would love to see some pics and communicate further. Please send a different PM so I can respond to it and I'll give you my e-mail address so you can send the pics there. Thanks Dave.

    I'm sure he would haggle a little. Can't help you on shipping though.

    Still looking for Forte II's. Dave took a listen to his ole' Forte II's and decided he still liked them too much to sell. Heard of this happening before so I continue to keep an eye out for another pair. Thanks anyway Dave!
