Klipsch RS-52 Available in Cherry?

Reply Contact

I saw an add for a pair of RS-52's in cherry. Real or vinyl? I do not see anywhere on Klipsch website that these are(or ever were) available in cherry.

Could someone clue me in whether this could be true.

Thanks,

Bill

Yes, they do have RS-52's in cherry. Not sure if it's vinyl or not. Here is a picture..

Hey, that's the photo in the add I saw. It looks like real wood. What a bonus if so.

Might have been in early development that we considered the wood surrounds. Seems every one wanted black.

We may be working on more real wood products in the future....

At the peak of the Madness there were 125 Klipsch speakers in this collection...I'm still a fan, but struggling with it....
