Hello, I’m really excited. Just picked up a pair of KLH 12’s. I think the reason I was able to grab them was because it was listed as “Nice Old Speakers”. Wow, huge and heavy. They’re in really nice cosmetic shape. Woofers are tight. Seal is good. I connected them to my B&K AVR 507 and... -

KLH Model 24 Turntable - Receiver Repaired From No Power
I have a KLH Model 24 I use in the basement to play my LPs while busy on other projects. I never used the built in amp or receiver, but rather used its Record output wired into the Aux input of another, more powerful receiver. One day, the unit did not power up.
