    I'm with Thebes on this one.

    yeah that's what I was going to say where is Thebes when you need him. I never really did like the beetles...a bit before my time.

    Hi there, and welcome. I had Cornwall II's for about 20 years before I sold them off and they were really great for sure. Im not sure they are quite up to the task of the Khorns but to be completely honest. I have never owned Khorns.

     

    Were you not expecting them to be as good as they were?

    F20 question

    Im using the Dayton Audio RSS390HF-4 15" Reference HF Subwoofer 4 Ohm as well. I stole the idea from a build Carl did. im exepcting good things from this sub.

     

    My F20 is 25.5 inches wide and is almost done. I sealed up the cabinet earlier today. Its a fairly easy build, took me about 4 days from start to sealed up. I tell ya. that PL premium is nasty stuff.

    F20 question

    so, I've started my F20 build. which is really 18.5 inches width. 3/4 inch ply on each side brings the width to 20 inches, hence the F20. In another thread we were discussing potentially bringing the width of the F20 to either 24 or even 30 inches. this would allow a better and more efficient response at the lower end of Fc low. So I've started my build. I've decided to build an f25.5 if I can call it that. 24 inches inside horn width, with 3/4 inch ply on each side. F25.5. I decided on using 24 inches rather than 30, because that is the most efficient use of three sheets of plywood. a 30 inch unit would have left me with to much wastage. I am using the Dayton Audio RSS390HF-4 15" Reference HF Subwoofer 4 Ohm. One of the baddest @ss woofers I've seen in a long time. I bought two of these a while ago for a dual F20 build. which might turn into a dual F25.5 build. Its a pretty easy build really, just takes some time, that's all. and im not in a rush. I ran all the plywood through the table saw to get everything the same width. so no issues there.

     

    My question is, with the wider width, could I have used Dayton Audio RSS460HO-4 18" Reference HO Subwoofer 4 ohm and been able to get a better response? 18 inch rather than a 15 inch. Theres no turning back now, but i would figure that the 18 inch driver might give a better response? and move more air?

    My suggestions would be thus;

     

    1) Consider picking up two more pair of used Heresies and running 5 of them total, this is cost effective and will sound better than ANY of the new Klipsch surround sound systems.

     

    2) Heresies NEED a sub, can you swing a table Tuba horn sub with your master?? (Couldn't help myself, I have a wife and don't need or ask permission!)

    +1 on this, I was thinking the exact same thing, table tuba with legs and a fake drawer. with a doily and a lamp.

    hi there, and welcome. I recently had an issue with my KMC1. I call klipsch tech support, and they were really great. and able to help me through this. Typically, tech support will have already seen your issue, and know what the fix is...at least they did with mine. Give them a call.
