The internal volume of the bass bin correspondents with the Cornwall III - so YES.

Hi everyone, as some of you know I've built my Cornscalas last year. Since I tried to get better bass performance I simulated different woofer chassis and founf out that I made an construction mistake - my bassreflexport is to long. While simulating I've tried different BR-port measurement I would like to share and discuss. Green is my actual faulty design Yellow is the original Cornwall port measurement (remember, this speaker was designed for the Klipsch K-33E) and finally red is what I could get with the Crites CW1526C. The big question ist: Since the Crites woofer differs from the K-33E, could it be the case that there is unused potential? Looking at the graph I would think so. The red line is just outstanding. Using just an 5 inch port length! What do you think? Robert

Thank you Dave, I thought I would double some parts when I use the AP12-600 and the AP15-6000. When I need those both I better buy them from Al K.! I thought I need to change something - that's why I wanted to DIM (Do it Myself []) Robert

Maybe I get it wrong - when I look at the AP12-600 and the AP15-6000 on Al's site, I'm ending up doubling the squawker part - is this right? Do I really need the tweeter attenuator? I thought I can also do this with an auto-transformer... Robert

sorry for being unprecise. My idea was to take the AP12-600 (where I would connect the woofer and squawker) and add the tweeter section of the universal network from your "xover.zip". Robert

Hi Al K., thanks for your advice! So am I right that I "only" have to add the tweeter section of the universal crossover? Adding these 3 parts (2.2 uFd, 1.0 uFd, 6.2 uFd)? Is there a kit availlable combining the AP12-600 with the AP15-6000 tweeter section? Robert

Thank you guys for the advice! So I will try the AP12-600 and the AP15-6000. I've found the AP12-600 designs on Al's site - is the AP15-6000 design also free for download? Also: Will the crossover change the frequency response especially for lower frequencys? I sometimes think the bass between 60 and 100Hz could be more...let's say "bloomy". Robert

Hi, I'm driving an Bob Crites Cornscala using all the parts from Bob, including his crossover. I recently read about someone who changed the lower crossover frequency from 500Hz to 600Hz, getting a relly good result. Since the DIY world is kind of an "try and error" experience, I thought about trying a 600Hz crossing so that I could build my own opinion. Is there someone who already tried this? What do I need to change? The soldering will be no problem, but I'm pretty new to all the crossover topic so I don't wanna fool around with the crossover without fully understand the theory behind it. I appreciate any advice Robert

Hi, I got the best results using an Aaron amp for my Cornscala - when I bought it I also listened with an Cornwall III hooked up. Maybe thats what you're looking for - live like sound without all the eq stuff. You can find reviews of the integrated amp here: http://enjoythemusic.com/superioraudio/equipment/1008/aaron_no_1a.htm http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/aaron/aaron.html

Thanks for all the warm words. The slate wall is my work. The speakers were done by an auto finisher...it's really durable but it took 3 guys to carry the speakers without getting any scratches [] Robert

The wall is made out of real slate. I used silicone to glue them on a wooden subconstruction. For the forum: You could use the Google page translator! Posting in english won't be a problem...as a member you can also browse the user-gallery where you can find some pretty nice setups. Robert

Hi fini, the Cornscalas are glossy black - I used car paint. Here comes another picture:

This is my current setup: Speaker: "Klipsch" Cornscala Pre: Aaron No.22 Amp: Aaron No.3 Millennium Source: Sonos ZP 90 At the moment I'm looking for an good DAC. Robert p.s.: For more information about Aaron take a look here: http://www.aaudioimports.com/ShowBrand.asp?hBrand=18

Hey Germerikan, thanks for summing this up. I also think we had a great time and I'm kind of proud that we made this happen only one year after starting the www.Klipsch-Forum.de or "Paul's-Reference" as we call it. At this time I also wan't to thank Amy Unger. When I had the idea to start my own Klipsch forum, we where like 10 guys writing about Klipsch. Right now, after one year, we count 154 members with 10113 posts. Impressive for just one year. Amy believed in the idea and helped me with the legal part (using the Klipsch logo and name). As you can see, it paid off. Robert

Yes I think so. The idea is to build a center speaker with 2x 15" and the 2 horns in the middle []
