    Disclaimer: I am unsure if we are permitted to use the D word here. I said JEM, Dean, and the C word the other day when someone asked about caps. I was thrown in the forum jail for saying the C word and the whole thread was removed. 


    I was just responding to your disclaimer since it sounded like you’re not sure what the rules are. 

     

    I just can’t figure out why people still don’t know what they can, and cannot post about, considering how much it’s been discussed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  2. Don’t promote third party vendor work or products on the forum. Don’t promote DIY, your own or others - which lends itself to unsubstantiated claims. Even those with test results, which are not Klipsch test results - and often come with layperson interpretations and conclusions.


    Klipsch is in the business of producing and promoting the sound THEY like.

     

    It’s all in the pinned posts that nobody reads.

     

    No shortage of other message boards, DIY forums - which is where I go when I want to talk about the extra wheel I added to the wagon.

  3. He doesn’t need new crossovers, he just needs to update a couple of parts. He needs to replace his current autoformer with a T4A, and substitute the 4mH in parallel with the midrange driver to a 5mH. The caps on those are fine, I have yet to find a bad one, and I’ve measured plenty. I stock both parts if interested.

  4. You know nothing about the condition of the capacitors unless you measure them. You need a meter that is not only capable of measuring capacitance, but also ESR and dissipation factor. If you cannot measure them properly, then replace them. They are after all, 60 years old. If you can find newer paper and oil capacitors, use them. If not, use Mylar.
