I need these like a hole in the head...

If I remember correctly, you are a big fan of the KLH Five and Six. The 23 has the best attributes of both...low end like the Fives, midrange clarity of the Sixes. I've owned all of the classic KLH speakers except the Twelves and the Nines (and I had a set of Twelves in the house for few days after restoring them for a client). The Fives, Sixes and 23's are the ones I've kept.
Evidently you'll have difficulty even using them, much less needing them.

Now you're just bragging
Here's why! No room! AR-2a's waiting to be restored, need to make a dedicated space for my JVC M-7050 amp and pre amp, probably where the Klipsch's are sitting now.
You said that they were on your bucket list, so I think that you will be able to squeeze them in there somewhere. You didn't think that I would talk you out of picking them up, did you? Keep us posted.

:scratch2:
Surely you know someone who could use and appreciate those 23's. Maybe a buddy or family member you've thought might actually enjoy having a modest little rig for next to nothing.....well here's a chance to help 'em out. Or hook them up with a pair in that stack that you wouldn't mind seeing go away and replace 'em with the 23's. :yes:
That's too good a deal to not take advantage of and turn it into something good for another. Hell, even if you flip them and buy your wife something nice. Get creative.

Not trying to brag at all. My modest pile is small compared to some of you guys!
I like the idea of fixing them, maybe moving something else to someone else to fit them, somewhere. Maybe a winter project. I'm thinking, the hole is getting bigger!
I've come to the conclusion that the sum total of the surviving HiFi gear on Earth will in time all come to be owned by the handful of people (such as myself) who take it upon themselves to rescue this gear which has been cast off. We will all own *at least* 50 pieces of stereo gear, and occasionally sell or trade some of it to the likewise afflicted, only to walk into a thrift store soon afterwards and find <fill in name of hifi gear here> for a price that's just too good to pass up.
It's a sickness I tell ya.
