BAM!
Klipsch Epic CF-4s. Series 1 in Cherry. A fitting substitution for my recently-departed Klipschorns (I'm on a bit of a Klipsch kick right now).
My very limited demo so far has shown me that these are very alive and sensitive like the Klipschorns (running off of my Lepai 2020+), but have tons more bass. They also image amazingly, even in a less than ideal placement, making them much more versatile than the corner horns.
I sold my KG4s after getting these and now my modded Polk Monitor 7s are moving up from the HT room to the living room for a while, while i play with these in the basement.

They look very nice!
Hmmm... CF series is considered vintage?

There is a CF-2 locally for $220 but not sure if they'll be better than what I have.
I'll give CF-4 a try though if they pop up.
