Klipsch Palladium P-39F?

Jmleonard400,

The Palladium P-17b bookshelf speaker is available in the same 3 finishes as the rest of the Palladium line and currently these are the only available finishes for all models.

"Has anybody seen the picture of the P-17B bookshelf in the P Series? The finish on it looks just like the plain finish that they have been putting on their synergy series for a decade... 4k/pr for that? When you look at the other monitors that are at this price range I can't see how they could sell a single pair... I'd grab something from Salk Sound - have a great sounding speaker and a work of art for that price."

Check out this thread on the Klipsch website. The finish looks very nice:

Undertow, did you ever sell the DM3000's by B&W (vintage 85 to 87 or so)? I have a pair of these. I replaced the caps in the crossovers and cleaned them up. I can't believe the perfromance that I get from these.

No sorry I worked in high school so I was not even 10 years old in 85 or 87'! I am sure any speakers with some good crossovers will be pretty close to the performance of most today however.

I may have been a little harsh about the finish on those, but I still don't think it's quite up to snuff for their price point.

I recently saw/heard the Monitor Audio Platinum Series, which has a bookshelf in the same price range, and the finish on those puts the klipsch to shame.

Well Klipsch has prices on there site now..... The P-39F is $20,000!!! They are out of my price range now (15,000 max). I do not think they will sell well at that price.
