Klipsch La Scala --two types?


I have a chance to purchase a pair of Black La Scalas (built in mid 80's) with side carrying handles. I believe they call these the industrial type? Does anyone know if they are identical to the non "industrial type" wood grain finish etc.. Are the crossovers the same? drivers the same? Overall do they sound the same?

I've read that the K77M tweeter, K55M midrange. and the AL-3 crossover are the best for these speakers. If so are the other types of drivers crossovers that much different?

Would an Onkyo TX-SV70PRO 90 watt/channel AV Tuner amplifier be a decent match to run them with?

What would a fair price for these be? Any other information on them would be helpful...
Thanks

Jax2 & Elevick gave excellent info. The woofer in the Industrial Lascala is actually a K-43 instead
of a K-33. It is able to handle more power/watts
than the K-33 woofer.

All 3 gentleman mentioned are excellent trustworthty Klipsch Heritage crossover Gurus. I have 3 upgraded crossovers from Dean Westcott. I own two pair of Cornwalls with DeanG's Type B crossovers-one with Auricaps & the other with Jensen Aluminum Paper In Oil Caps. I have Type A with Jensen Aluminum Paper In Oil Caps in my 1989 Industrial Lascalas.

My 1989 Industrial Lascalas are in unfinished birch with black plastic handles on the sides. They look the same as a home model Lascala with the exception of the side black handles. And there is a rectangular piece of wood attached with wood screws that covers the back where the crossovers are at in the Industrial Lascalas I own.

On all the home version Lascalas I have seen pictures of, the crossover area is open.
Thanks Lonestarblues for the helpful info:)

I received my La Scalas yesterday, hooked them up played with the positioning a bit, then listened to them for over two hours. I am happy, very happy. I was surprised at what they could do with the imaging and they throw such a large soundstage. Best part is they sound great at a louder than my normal listening, but withought any fatigue..

I've read that they really do sound like you are at a live venue and that is so true. For the first time in a long time I am really excited about listening to all types of music again..Jazz, Rock, Electronic (really amazing)and the upper bass kick is something I've never experienced in my home set up before..I wasn't expecting that:) but I like it...a lot.

I will soon post some pictures of my setup and add some more comments..
take care all,
Thanks again

Mike the answer to your question although late is the both commercial and home versions are the same exept for the woofers which are a heavy-duty better than stock. as far as the butt-cheek replacement tweeters and after market parts is a seperate issue and a matter of taste or lack of. Don't get caught up in the forum rat race of expensive upgrades. before you know you have invested twice as much as the speakers cost you.
It is fun to upgrade but it will get a little crazy. I started with La Scalas. And now have Altec 805B horns ,altec 288c ,Drivers, Beyma CP-25. Crites cross overs.In my La Scala bottoms. Well lets just say the La Scalas are good. But my La Scalas are incredible now.
