ABOUT THIS PAIR

Offered here is the actual Klipsch Chorus I floorstanding speaker pair shown in the listing photos, HQaudios SKU 1SELC2818.

The Chorus I is a large three-way Klipsch loudspeaker built around a 15-inch woofer with horn-loaded midrange and high-frequency sections. Its high factory-rated sensitivity allows substantial output and dynamic range with a wide variety of suitable amplification.

This specific pair has been professionally restored by HQaudios. Documented work included attention to the woofer assemblies, grille material, cabinet cosmetics, and speaker mounting hardware.

The woofer, midrange, and tweeter sections were documented as operational, and the completed pair passed final functional testing.

This sale includes the speaker pair, both grilles, and the matching speaker stands shown in the photos.

The pair is backed by our 1-Year HQaudios Warranty.

WHY THIS MODEL IS NOTABLE

The Klipsch Chorus combines a large direct-radiating 15-inch woofer with horn-loaded midrange and high-frequency sections in a large vented enclosure.

Klipsch specified the Chorus at 101 dB SPL at 1 watt / 1 meter. This high sensitivity allows the speaker to produce substantial output without requiring unusually high amplifier power.

Its factory driver configuration uses the K-48-E 15-inch woofer, K-57-K midrange driver, and K-79-K tweeter.

HQAUDIOS RESTORATION

Before Restoration

During the initial inspection, the woofer, midrange, and tweeter sections were checked for operation.

The service record documented a deformation on one woofer cone, areas of the woofer gasket/trim requiring attention, damaged grille material, cabinet scratches and cosmetic wear, and oxidation/rust on some speaker mounting hardware.

One grille/logo badge was also noted as missing during the initial inspection.

During Restoration

Our in-house HQaudios technicians performed the following documented work on this specific pair:

• Addressed the affected area of one woofer cone
• Addressed the woofer gasket/trim areas where required
• Performed cosmetic touch-up work on the woofer assemblies
• Cleaned and refinished affected speaker mounting hardware
• Restored/replaced damaged grille material
• Addressed documented cabinet scratches and cosmetic defects
• Prepared, filled, and touched up affected cabinet areas where required
• Reassembled and inspected the speaker pair following restoration work

The service documentation does not indicate a crossover recap, voice-coil replacement, or complete driver rebuild, so those procedures are not being claimed in this listing.

Final Testing

• Both woofer sections were documented as operational
• Both midrange horn sections were documented as operational
• Both tweeter sections were documented as operational
• The completed speaker pair underwent final functional testing
• The technical service record concludes with “Test OK”

TECHNICAL CONDITION

This Klipsch Chorus I pair has been professionally restored and functionally tested by HQaudios.

The woofer, midrange, and tweeter sections were documented as operational during inspection.

Areas requiring corrective attention, including the woofer assemblies, gasket/trim areas, grille material, cabinet cosmetics, and mounting hardware, were addressed during the restoration process.

Following completion of the work, the pair underwent final functional testing and the service record was marked “Test OK.”

COSMETIC CONDITION

This speaker pair presents in restored vintage cosmetic condition.

Cosmetic work has been performed on documented wear areas while retaining the character expected of vintage Klipsch loudspeakers.

Cabinets:
The cabinets originally showed scratches and age-related cosmetic defects. Affected areas received documented cosmetic restoration and touch-up work. Some minor signs of previous use and age may remain.

Woofer Assemblies:
One woofer cone originally showed a visible deformation. Corrective and cosmetic attention was performed on the affected woofer area and related gasket/trim sections.

Grilles:
The grille material required attention and was restored/replaced as part of the documented work. Two grilles are included with the pair.

Hardware:
Speaker mounting hardware showing oxidation or rust received cosmetic refinishing.

Known Remaining Wear:
As vintage loudspeakers, minor age-related marks, finish variation, or evidence of previous use may remain after restoration.

Please review all listing photos carefully, as they show the actual speakers, grilles, and included stands and form an important part of the cosmetic description.
