I actually would like to keep my speakers as a 3 way, i wonder if there's any driver I can use to replace the K691 on the HF horn.
what's the point of spending 2k$ for the Axi 2050+ DSP if you' ll limit the driver from reproducing HF with a 3 way , the new driver is simply not needed .

I have a pair of Klipsch Forte II.
I purchased them from a very reputable shop in Brookfield Wisconsin I believe close to 1985. I'm looking at the back there is no sticker. There is however a little plaque that says Klips h Forte II 1986.
I'm going to give them to my son for a wedding present but looking at a lot of stuff online makes you quite curious as though why these are dated as such if they were not supposedly made then I'm the original owner
if you purchased these speakers in 1985 , they would be Forte , , if you own Forte II speakers , they were purchased after 89 , klipsch only indicate the 2 first digits of the production year on their tags , .....versus the full 1986 .
I attached 3 pictures
no 1 is a klipsch Forte II
no 2 is a klipsch Forte
no 3 is a picture of the rear of the Forte 1 (left ) + the Forte II ( right ) , the terminal cups also indicate the model .

My 75 AA had those type caps too rather than cans. Rare??
The 75 AA did not have flat caps alike the Heresy , the caps were round .

remove all screws , take a wide metal scraper , lodge it gently into the corners and the center top-bottom / sides , pull out very gently until there is a gap , the 1/2 inch rear wood panel will come loose , slow and easy does it .

reduce the bass to a lower level , no need to plug anything ........

extra mayo , oh boy

I like the idea of flipping the woofers and 86ing the speaker terminals.
the woofers push out , they dont push down or up ,
Heresy terminals use a mini-barrier strip , 0 problems .

@Livemusic an Earlier McIntosh is a great idea since the preamp is the most critical component , but these are very sought after , and very rare birds

I could sell the KLF 30's and use the Forte as center channels in both systems.
makes a lot of sense .

I'm thinking they'll do just fine.
no worries , most owners of Forte 1 barely push them to their limits in their living rooms so whether the caps are worn out or not makes very little difference .
