A set KLH model AV-55 speakers
In good condition
With the original dust jackets.

The speakers are in reasonably good condition with the obligatory signs of wear. 
It is a closed 3-way system with additional passive resonator/radiator/woofer.
The AV-55 speakers were designed to serve as front speakers in a surround system, but can also be used nicely for stereo.
The additional (passive) woofer makes a subwoofer obsolete.
One of both passive units has suffered some small damage.
Because the unit is passive, this does not affect operation.
(see photo 15 and 16)

These speakers are beasts, meant to emulate a live action ambiance.
Especially Rock, Blues and Funk literally pop out of the speakers.
Typical made in USA “no guts no glory” speakers with a very big mouth which can also sound “simply beautiful”.
Similar to the better-known contemporaries from:
- Altec-Lansing
- Infinity
- JBL
- Klipsch

The KLHs are sensitive to the quality of the connected electronics and cables.
They reward the listener with an unexpectedly large wealth of sound if they are driven by a top-class amplifier.
This can also be a small tube amplifier because of the high efficiency.
This is one of the reasons why new speaker clips which are suitable for banana plugs and thick cable have been installed and the original simple clips have been closed.

NOTE
