Have any of you heard the Klipsch Forte speakers?


I currently own a pair of Totem Hawks but wanted something for our (very large) living room. There are a pair of Klipsch Fortes available at a very cheap price and I was wondering if these would be good as a, primarily, rock speaker. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have heard them and they have that great klipsch midrange. they will sounds beautiful with a flea powered SET amp..
too bad you can't ship em to canada :)
NC is too far a drive from Toronto! Oh well, once in a while a pair comes up for sale here...what i find interesting abot the forte model is the price range they seem to go for...I have seen them as low as 450, and as high as 1K, for similar condition...and Johnnyb53 is right - they do rock quite well!
A years supply of Blue? hmmm...i dunno, I stopped drinking Blue years ago when I discovered guiness - nectar of the gods! Actually, there are quite a few canadian-made beers now that aer quite good (much better than labatts) and even some small american beer companies are starting to make real high-quality pints...
But, if that's what it takes :)
