Early KLH Speakers |
|
|
|
This is a compilation of two databases on the early KLH speakers, one of which came from classicspeakerpages.net. I also dug through a good portion of the messages on the KLH board there, as well as quite a few brochures. I continue to monitor eB*y sales. Additions and corrections welcome. |
