    Hooked up to 5700 front channels. Ran cd with direct through in stereo mode.

    Those look great! 😊 Congrats! We're all excited for you. They don't need much power, and it's all about synergy in regards to amplification. Nothing wrong at all with your Denon, they make solid amps. If the crossover caps aren't leaking, they might be just fine as-is for now. I bought new caps for my AAs, but haven't gotten around to swapping in new ones. 

  2. Kind of a long shot, but members on here might have some non-klipsch parts! :) I picked up some gear included with boxes of records, and I need one of these in good shape measuring around 4 ohms. It's okay if dome is dented, as long as cone is OK. Thanks!

    The Epic series NEO CD driver diaphragms are a special  Klipsch design  . 

    Yeah, I understand they're unique for sure. I mention it since the EV DH2A or DH1506 looked like a similar diaphragm layout. I'm not sure of the phase plug on the Epic driver since I haven't opened one up. They seem to sell diapghrams for everything under the sun on Ebay. I am hesitant to open mine, I know diaphragms can get destroyed that way if they're stuck on.

  4. Just curious, in case I ever need one for my KV4/Epic center channel. Looks like Crites doesn't carry much in the way of phragms anymore, aside from tweeter ones. I wonder if I could convert it to a KLF C7 center, since their diapghram would fit. I know id need a new compression driver, though. The woofers seem similar enough, although it's neodymium vs ceramic. I'd have to possibly change the crossover also. I'll have find the schematics for comparison. Anyway, thanks for any input!

    I just happened to notice what a nice wood case having restored a few myself.  Congratulation on nice find. Bet sounds as good as looks. 

    Thanks, I've wanted one for a long time! It's really sounding great. :) I don't know who made the case, but they did a good job.

    Very nice, I have always liked those old Fisher receivers. Wood case looks extremely nice. Was it repaired, restored along with the electronics?

    Thanks! I bought it from an individual who had it posted FS with a recap/relight kit, extra power switch, and the reproduction wood case. They decided to move, and needed the money apparently. The tuner wasn't working when I bought it. Apparently two resistors were burnt. My tech fixed that along with finishing the recap kit. I started it, but wasn't real comfortable working on the complex bits inside. I bought some new Tung Sol power tubes and they're breaking in nicely!
