This is a spectacular pair of La Scala's. We've had them in our listening room for a few months now and have finally decided to consider the idea of parting with them. They've been recapped and have had a few hundred hours of break-in time. Any chips in the veneer have been repaired. They are as clean of a pair of vintage Scala's that you're ever likely to find. We absolutely love these speakers. Due to their size, these will be palletized and shipped via freight to ensure that they arrive in as pristine of a condition as they are right now.

- Liner Notes
- When the La Scala first launched in 1963, it was not designed for home use. Paul Klipsch made it for Arkansas gubernatorial candidate Winthrop Rockefeller to use as a public address speaker. However, because some considered it a "portable" and more affordable version of the revolutionary Klipschorn, the La Scala found success beyond the campaign. Despite its raw, unfinished look, the fully horn-loaded, three-way La Scala sounded so good that people still wanted to put it in their living rooms.
