Travis In Austin

Here is a start on information about the Music Box: click on image below. The Museum Curator @JRH Jim Hunter will see this and may have some more information on the Short Horns. Can you post some photos of them? Travis

Welcome to the Forum. A couple of months ago we had some posts here from Bill’s daughter, I will try and link those for you. You can also use the search function for Music Box which will lead you to other posts. Many, many fans of the Music Box here. Travis

Thank you he is gone.

You should be able to send and receive PM’s now.

@Deang might have some input on the Zeners and crossovers that would be helpful.

Yeah, but his dog didn't seem to fancy it too much I agree Bruce.

Poor pup he clearly thinks you bought him a dog house and he is thinking "if you think I can fit in that you really need to lay of the bourbon." Looks like you have factory grills. I had 90ish (they didn't have records for the S/N I had due to the merge of computer data it was their best date estimate).

I have bought 3 pairs, one for Khorns and they went with the Khorns, another pair for some 1990 LS, this was in '04, I didn't like that batch because it looked like they had white cracks and '90 LS had no grills, so I got a different run. I still have a brand new pair in the box from Klipsch. But the most recent pair was about 10 years ago so I have no idea other than what I have seen people post.

As mentioned in an earlier response, RF62 with a sub will excel over the MSR 400 PA system. However, the RF 82 would be breathtaking, as would RF7 III. What the distance between the L and R Speaker?

Um, not since the Bonehead Class in October and those threads. Roy is doing another Bonehead Class in March as part of the Birthday Bash, and the subwoofers and some other Heritage “advancements” are being discussed as his topics. I expect another round of updates, refinements and announcements at that time. Travis

Welcome to the forum, I edited the part about unsupported non-authorized networks, left the rest as is. Q1: One in a million (that it’s a complete failure of a part on the network leading to a different driver not working on each speaker). It’s very, very common to have the problem with loose connections on the crossover networks and/or driver terminals. You heard a sound in 1984 (same thing for me in ‘78), you are going to want what you heard in ‘84. Bad connections are very common, so use that to your advantage on the offer. We can help you isolate the problems when you get them home. If the drivers need new diaphragms, where and how to replace. We will want photos of rear of drivers. @Deang is an authorized rebuilder of XOs and can tell you the good bad and the ugly on every variation that was used in the LS. I think you have a bad tweeter diaphragm, and a bad squawker connection. But buy based on needing total replacements. Which as you point out is four drivers. It probably going to be that you don’t need to replace XO’s right away, you get all drivers working, and then you can figure out what to do on the XOs. Q3 based on what Dean and others tell you on what would cost of diaphragms, XO build you can judge from there. looking forward to hearing how this progresses.

Wow, that will help!

They are brand new AL5’s.

No . . . . They are coming out with 4 Heritage Subs, Horn loaded with the patented vented horn design.

Oh yeah. Hows the Wiim working out?

Welcome to the Forum. Can you post a photo or two of the room? That will help others with some suggestions.

I removed the double post, there is a thread on this with same post, I took this one out.

Moved here to get in more appropriate place for more visibility.

Hi Keks, welcome to the Forum. The Klipsch Forum is just Klipsch, even though Onkyo is another subsidiary and f the same parent company. I will pass this along to the person at Klipsch (I’m a volunteer moderator not associated with the Company) who I think can pass it along to the right people. If I receive a response I will post it here and/or send you a PM. Thanks for your detailed explanation of the bug so that you if we can get this in the right hands they can do something constructive. Travis

Heard nothing but great things about Wiim Pro Plus. I think I'm going to order one (after you get yours, haha). You can get by with just an Amp can't you (volume control on the Wiim). I think you can look at any good solid-state amp (Wiim has one don't they?). Don't know how loud you listen, music, but 50 watts a side will be plenty.

I'm old school too, but I did find these alternative helpful, and got me to a live person the fastest: You can also send an email to service@klipsch.com or contact them through the "Contact Us" page on their website.

Yep

Welcome to the forum, I’m sure with the Museum Curator, Jim Hunter @JRH returns from the holidays he will be all over this one.

The last tour I saw them in Austin (great venue layout), Houston, Denver, and Las Vegas (where we had best seats) This tour, because of AARP advance sales, and 6 of us working together on seats, we got- Houston, Denver, Las Vegas and Vancouver. Mick is 80, I figure this is their last rodeo, or close to it.

Love the pups
