did you know that klipsch has the k401 at a really cheap price - cheaper than used on ebay - my advise is to call them - you never know
-
so why not instead opt for dual woofers of the same size that works. Best regards Moray James.
hy Morey - I think PWK had the same idea when he designed the Jubilee -

I cannot think of a single two or three way based upon a single eighteen inch woofer
EV had the Patrician iV using the EV 18WK in a corner Horn. http://electrovoice.com/downloadfile.php?f=Patrician%20IV%20DIY%20Manual.pdf
The Patrician iV was essentially a licensed 18 inch KLIPSCH khorn , and pretty rare to boot - the 18 inch woofer added bass accuracy in larger rooms - in this case , larger is better while remaining efficient -

Hi Morey -
Electrovoice had the S-1803 EDS with an 18 inch woofer , the cabinet is wider and deeper than a Cornwall but just as high -200 watts rating -

I am very interested in these crossovers -if Sancho does not take them , of course --pm sent -
-
The woofers in all the heritage series apart of the Heresy 1-2 are 4 ohms - the Cornwall -Scala -Belle-Khorn and Heresy 3 are 4ohms -
Here below is a thread that dealt with the K33 - and is very detailed as Bob Crites had added some technical info -
-
they look just like a pair I own , I am not sure if you noticed but the speakers are very close to the floor and the aluminium trim will oxide as a result of being close to a humid floor - a clear coat will not stop any oxidation as the surface underneath is not coated -
-for your info -most of these split Lascala pro speakers were not coated with a truck bedliner paint on the birch plywood veneered wood but rather fiberglassed at the factory for commercial applications -
are the pocket handles KLIPSCH originals - small detail - otherwise - cool cabs -

yep - they dont make cabs like this any more - by the way SCALAS look awesone with 2 inch risers
-
by the way , how did you do with removing the black paint with paint thinner - did this work out fine =
-
Hy Abe - this would be great and I am most definitely grateful - I would of course be willing to pay for all your expenses - kind Regards
-
I am interested in your old crossovers if you get a new set - I can use them to restore a CW1 pair - tx
-
thanks for the info - as the klipsch drivers are 4ohms if I am not mistaken -
-
-the removal of the MP3 player cable damaged the diaphragms on the horns ,
-you mention that the power was up , so my guess is that when you removed the cable , the music program stopped as well and the amp was on full power resulting in a surge in power to the horns - that surge in power is sufficient to zap the horns for sure , the crossovers at this point delivered a power transient that was way off the power handling capabilities of the horns frying the voice coil of the horns -
-you will have to open the horns and inspect the diaphragm for signs of damage - take a screwdriver - remove the screws - remove the wiring connectors -unscrew the screws holding the horn to the driver -remove the diaphragm - check for a smell of burned plastic - look at the voice coil windings for apparent damage -

The HIP were made in 2 versions = the tweeter had the K77M square magnet - the mids -the K55V or K55M - in the woofer - there is the EVM12L musical instrument or the K42 from Eminence -
-the KP 250 was an evolution of the HIP with twin ports at top instead of the lower one on the HIP -I prefer the HIP versus the KP250 - as the EVM12L , the K55V-M and the K77M combination is unbeatable and extremely expensive high quality components -
-these are a ported Heresy cabinet versus all the home Heresy cabinets that are all non-ported - you are giving up bass but adding a lot more power handling -
-the crossovers look like an AA for the scala with Zener diode tweeter protection for the precious K77M - updating the crossover to the late specs capacitors will give you an even better sound than the old caps ever did - as a matter of fact , the ESR readings of the old caps were way off even when new -
-so for a win win situation- just ;like Mr Morey James said it earlier - upgrade the caps and enjoy the truly well built HIP -

tx for the info - but are these available in 4 ohms as well or only 8 ohms -
BD15: top notch quality, deep bass in right Q box, reference upper bass, high efficiency, fast and devastatingly linear!
I preferred it over CW1526©: absolutely
Beyma 15LX60V2: deep bass, high efficiency, fast, pretty linear
I preferred it over CW1526©: Yes
Faital Pro 15PR-400: deep bass with good punch, highly efficient, build quality is superb. looks humble
I preferred it over CW1526©: Yes

point well taken , my goal was to build a cornscala with CP-1 front dimensions with the depth of a Cornwall 1
-I have a pair of CP-1 that are using an EV18 inch woofer with no issues for several years - the motorboard was cut for the 18 inch fit -these are not driven hard and are way better at delivering bass than a 15 inch CP-1 K44E - the time alignment of the woofer -mid and tweeter is fantastic to say the least - with no mods to the crossover as well -
-bass is tight - mids are very detailed and the tweeters with Crites titanium diaphragms are very smooth - you can feel the punch in your chest and all the sound is there with great presence -
-a hybrid of the CP-1 and Cornwall 1 is what I want to build and should be even better balanced - it would result in a slightly bigger bass reflex enclosure and could handle more power as well - TX
-
By that , do you mean adding ports or venting or passive radiators etc -

Happy 2015 to all the forum members -my question is something I have been thinking of for a while - basically installing an Eminence -EV-JBL 18 inch woofer in a Cornwall -cornscala cabinet - the idea here would be to improve the low end sound -
- I am wondering if that trial has already been done with sucess by another forum member - the issue here is the fact that cutting the motherboard is irreversible once done -
-
I am looking for anyone who can relate their experience with replacing the woofer in a cornwall to a higher end unit - made by JBL -EV - the whole for a better sound -tx
-
here is a thread about the specs of the k43 woofer - the rating is 400 watts power handling - 3 inch voice coil - yep the midrange is much better than a k33 - some say less bass -
-https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/127390-k-43-specs/
-
no wonder these did not suit your needs - you should have gone with k28 woofer of the Heresy III - 4 ohms - these really rock -klipsch parts sell the kit complete - woofer - mid driver-tweeter -crossover - now that is really nice sound - balanced - good luck
Any market for stock Cornwal III crossovers?

thanks Sancho -
while Heresy 1 and 2 use 8ohms woofers - cornwall 1-2-3 as well as lascala-belle-khorn and Heresy 3 carry 4ohms woofers - the difference is a more responsive woofer that delivers more bass -
