Talon Khorus

I remember the Talons making a huge splash in 2002-2004 or so and then just as quickly vanishing. Hey didn't seem to have much staying power 

Owned them - V2 version. Decent speaker for $4000 grand used about 14 years ago. I think they sound good for no more than $1200 used today.  

Thanks everyone for the input.  Sounds like the guy took them in trade for a payment of some work.  I am not sure he has listened to them himself.  He said he got them from the owner's sister who didn't listen to them either.  I wasn't sure of he was talking about the owner of Talon or the owner of the company he did the work for.

Don't pay anywhere near that. They are recessed with poor dynamics.

Okay I will say that I heard them at an audio show in NYC a few years back and I thought they sounded pretty good. I'm not sure what version I heard, I understand that there were actually a few versions with changes made in the crossover over the years, but the ones I heard must have been the latest iterations as it wasn't all that long ago, it was certainly after 2004.
