You are comparing a subwoofer to speakers??
I bought these because of the rave reviews on YouTube, I sold them at a loss, they are just okay speakers.
you really don't know what you are talking about.

If I needed speakers right now I would absolutely jump on these. Heard them live and they are "vintage" perfected. Smooth, effortless sound with surprisingly good bass response. They also look incredible. The wood veneer is gorgeous.

These started at $1000/speaker and are now regular priced $1250 MSRP. At $800 these are a steal.

Andrew Robinson's take:
https://youtu.be/zU3X5syv1Tk
Better than Klipsch Heresy IV; Better than JBL L100; Best Speaker under $2000/pair; A standout of 2021

This deal is for anyone who is into high end audiophile vintage speakers and 2 channel listening.

Is this for a single? It makes no mention in the listing.

I've seen mostly positive reviews on these. Not a huge fan of the retro design though.

I remember first hearing these kind of speakers in 1979, and I was blown away. I made a promise that I would get some when I got a job and a house. I would buy these, but they dont have WAF or WGASF... Frown

Is KLH related to the old Energy brand? Their floorstanding towers look very similar to the Energy RC line a while ago.

Question for anyone who has had a chance to compare, how close do you think these would come to a set of JBL L100s?
