[KSW15 Need replacement sub or similar]

JerolW, I am interested in another KSW-15.  Is yours still available?

 

It can be for the right price as these 15's are quite rare.  I did fix the speaker portion and she does work incredibetly good.

Memphis2k(Aaron),

Welcome to the forum.

Sorry to hear about your KSW15.

Can anyone recommend a replacement subwoofer, I prefer to replace just the subwoofer. Used/new.. maybe klipsch? Other brand?

What is your budget?

Ported or sealed?

Bill

Thanks Bill for the reply.

I did pull off the center cone on the speaker and re-apply some adhesive. Let it dry and ensured a good seal...tried it. Well, sure enough that did the trick.

Ported or sealed. Well... the KSW-15 is ported so I guess ported. I'm just hoping to find a subwoofer for the KSW-15 enclosure. $150-300? Its a 9.5 by 13 room with entrance from the right, lower family room in the bi-level house. Haven't done the subwoofer crawl yet, but guessing the sub will go in the corner.

Hello all,

I have an KSW-15 that has been in storage for ever but finally got around to setting it up and the subwoofer has a rattle in the speaker itself. LFE hooked up and begins to rattle not much beyond a low volume level. Pioneer 1020 amp and tried a few settings on it. Removed the speaker and nothing obvious is wrong.
