Mach 1, Thanks Doug

Hello everyone. I haven't visited here since My wife passed away in 2010. I lost My passion for klipsch for awhile and did some things I now regret. Mainly selling My K Horns, and a pair of Lascalas that I drove all the way to Chicago to pick up. I've been biten by the bug again and My passion is back. I've been on a bit of a Heresy buying binge lately. I would like to replace the oil can caps with sonicaps in the E crossovers. I was wondering if someone could post a picture of a wiring diagram with instructions as to how to do it. Thanks in advance. Doug S.

I contacted Him early but haven't heard back from Him.

It scared the hell out of my 83 year old mother. She was a sleep on a couch and the shaking woke Her up. Knocked pictures of a shelf and rattled glasses and dishes. She said it lasted about 15 seconds. She lives Near Ogdensburg N.Y. which is about 55 miles south of Ottawa on the St. Lawrence River. I Didn't feel anything in western N.Y.

Neil at Shea's Theater in Buffalo was a very special night.

Just doing the best that I can. Going to see Neil Young perform solo at Sheas's performing Theater in Buffalo N.Y. tonight. 2800 seat venue that sold out in 3 minutes. 15 seats in Front PIT row AAA. Took a lot of wheeling and dealing but I got PIT Front Row AAA seat #8. I will be dead center 4 feet from the stage with noone between me and Neil. If this doesn't put a smile on my face nothing will. Hopefully I will get some good close up pics to post. This will be the 33rd time I've seen Neil.

Thanks to all for the well wishes and especially the prayers. Got a couple hours sleep last night for the first time in 5 days. I don't think I can stay here. Every where I look I see Her. This is hard on the dog to. He just sits at the window waiting. greif is to small a word for this.

Lived in sin for 4 years, married for 15.

My wife (Barbara Smithers) passed away on Thursday 5/6/2010. She was 56. She had been waiting for a liver transplant for 5 years. I just wasn't prepared for this. I thought the doctors would send Her home to Me like so many times before. They just couldn't save Her this time. Family members will start arriving from Charleston SC tonight. I'm ok in that Her suffering is over. Her funeral will be at Robinson & Hackemer Funeral Home 246 North Main St. Warsaw N.Y. at 11AM on 5/10/10. online condolences at www.robinsonand hackemer.com.

Just to clarify. I have 6 pairs of Heresy I's. A couple pairs of transition year Heresy I's had E2 crossovers with K53 mids on K701 plastic horns. I have replaced the K53's with K55V (soldiered terminals) on K 700 metal horns. I have also installed the older square magnet K 22 EF woofers. If I have converted the E2's to E's correctly I will replace the temporary oil cans with new 2.0 UF sonicaps.

This hopefully is correct for E crossover. Backside of terminal block showing how I rerouted the black wire from the 0 tap from the T2A.

Thanks in advance for any help. Wondering if I got it right. I have hopefully converted a pair of E2 crossovers to E crossovers. With a stock E2 next to a stock E I noticed that the squawker connections were differant and the E2 had a capacitor bridging the woofer terminals. I removed the woofer capacitor. the #2 tap from the T2A connected to the E2 squawker positive terminal (#6). On the E the #2 tap connects to the squawker negitive (#5). I also noticed that the Black lead from T2A (#0 tap), connected differantly. It connected to the back side of the squawker positive terminal (#6) on the E network and to the squawker backside negitive terminal (#5) on the E2 croosover. To convert the E2 to E I installed the older oil cans. connected #2 tap to squaker negitive (#5) and #0 tap to backside sqauwker positive #6 terminal.

For the first time in 8 years my Jonsered saw wouldn't start. I had a huge tree down across my driveway. Time wasn't on my side because it was snowing hard. I ended up buying a new professonal 50cc Husquavarnas. By the time I got home the tree was under a foot of snow. The chainsaw dealer eventually rebuilt the Jonsered carb and said ethanol was the problem.

My back hurts just looking at that snow. I bet the thrill is starting to wear off a little now. 45 miles southeast of Buffalo with hardly any snow. a couple 18 inch snow falls but nothing serious. With a long drive thru the woods I have to push the snow 400 feet to get it out of the way. I plow every 4 hours to keep up with it. Quite often trees blow down which I have to cut before they get buried. Here is a pick of my driveway out by the road.

This will be pretty special. Hope to hear something new.
