    You will NOT find another single for sale

    If there wasn't currently an opportunity to purchase a single, I would agree, however, considering the serial number and style, I would have to say that there is a single or match out there for this one.  How long would it take to find.... That there lies the question.   If I couldn't get out of the sale, i would beg Klipsch to try and help find me a mate. 

  2. I don't think it will hurt.  What do you like about each speaker, what do you not like about each speaker?  I'd advise finding a local show room to see how things sound different and to identify what you like?  I'd focus on whatever details I can hear and what I missing and go from there.

    I prefer my beer straight from the tap.🍻  My new tap tower, I still need to balance the new beer lines.

    I just finished this install last weekend.  I will put a keg of Miler lite and homemade rootbeer (non alcohol) in here in the next couple of weeks. 

     

    Nevermind the mess, the bar is still under construction.

  4. Morning gang, Christmas Eve,  -1°, just finished some eggs over easy, sweet potato hash browns, and chicken sausage. Now enjoying the French roast from Starbucks that was on sale at Costco for $13.99.  Christmas tunes on the Cornwalls this morning. 

     

    Speaking of cocktails,  met a friend at a speakeasy this last week for a drink or two.  Had a smoke old fashion that was smooth and nice to drink.

     

    For Christmas dinner I'll be firing the Big Green Egg up for some brisket and ham, having the family over, which hopefully results in us down at the bar in the basement with cocktails and music on the big rig.

    I'm still having issues comprehending....  (my wife rolls her eyes about now at me....)

     

    Flanges facing toward the horn verses driver....

     

    Huh?

     

    Am I missing it in the (your) pictures above?  I would think they fit one way and that's it.  I'm clearly missing something.

    The snout on the 1132 extends it out so the wildest part of the driver doesn't interfere with the mounting plate.  I had to flip mine around to get the k69(b&c version) to mount to the k402.  Though some of a struggle, I was able to align everything with a socket and tighten it down.

    For driver side? I have to flip my driver mounting plate/bracket around to mount 4-bolt drivers without snout. With all the holes in the plate none line up with 4-bolt pattern when flipped over. Want it to be exact and trying to mark holes, etc. from underside is difficult. Easy enough to create one from my horns but figured I would check.

    I do not and had to do the same thing. I used a socket that fit through the mouth of the horn to align driver.  

     

     

  7. The snout is correct, it may be taking a 1 1/4" driver to 2", I can't remember.  If you wanted to try the B&C (which you already have in your hands), remove the current driver and snout and bolt the B&C directly to it. Tweak your settings as you currently are. 

     

    KT88 has provided some great input and you are on the right path; it just takes time and tweaking.  For the money and availability, I would shoot for the Celestions as that is the latest and greatest Klipsch is now using on the K402s.   If you didn't want to spring for the Celestions as this time, I would consider the Faital PRO HF200 or similar, they are great driver and sounded great on other horns I have experimented with.
