  1. That lambs wool at a fabric store is not very good. Order this but tell them to roll it for mailing cause getting the wrinkles out is pretty hard. https://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemdetail.pl?item=59-135X I tried that stuff from a fabric store it sucks.
  2. If I was closer that would be mine in a split second......I would love to have one with a wooden case. Got 3 HKs and love them.
  3. I dont think they lack anything actually, but if you want to get a sub to use with them that would probably help the lower end. I never had a sub with mine sound fine.
  4. The distressed oak Forte and the California black walnut comes with Lambs wool grills ask Cory if he has any of those.
  5. Try calling Cory he may be able to get you the ones with lambs wool grills or at least a discount on the Forte's.
  6. Yea and then some people get bent out of shape when they call Bob Crites for parts.....You would think they woud sell a Klipsch owner any parts he needs. I see the reason for having a serial number thats a reasonable request to prove you have a product.
  7. Buy the material and make your own. https://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemdetail.pl?item=59-135X
  8. Those are not rubber....so dont worry about it. But if you want to try new ones Bon Crites has them.
  9. With the new crazy price hikes they will have a few on hand I'm sure. I dont think Klipsch will sell near as many as they did before. I know I might have bought some new Hersey's but not now I will look for used. My first thought when I heard new prices was Heritage speakers will be gone in a few years. I guess we will see.
  10. https://www.paducahhometheater.com/ Corys place and phone.
  11. Oh yea order speakers from Cory on here call him for price quote you will be happy and extra good service.MetropolisLakeOutfitters aka Batman)
  12. Your going to need some of these also....https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8AHLA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  13. I vote for Integra easier to set up and to customize also this one has phono input. My son has Denon and his has less options on set up he does not like it.l https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/intdtr404/integra-dtr-40.4-7.2-ch-x-110-watts-thx-a/v-receiver/1.html Then order this roll of wire https://smile.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Speaker-Wire-14-Gauge-Oxygen-Free/dp/B0758CSSF2/ref=pd_rhf_ee_s_rp_0_13?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0758CSSF2&pd_rd_r=60ec41d4-dd96-4c5a-9179-a2535930dcef&pd_rd_w=s2sDe&pd_rd_wg=thOQx&pf_rd_p=f4c63947-4e8b-4aeb-a925-1d4e1a211124&pf_rd_r=C689K0FSV61XSBMRFYVW&psc=1&refRID=C689K0FSV61XSBMRFYVW Then if your mounting surrounds on wall get these if they are not to heavy https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005BV0FHG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And dont forget one of these...https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002YDZWO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  14. Those look to be type A crossovers ,,,no diodes the type AA has diodes to protect tweeter.
  15. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1138944/Onkyo-Ht-R695.html?page=48&term=equalizer+setting s&selected=1 This all I could find in your manual for tone controls. so not sure you can change much on it.
  16. I didn't like the automatic set up on my Integra so I just set equalizer to the sound I liked on 2 channel sound and it sounded fine on 5.1 sound then. I dont know if you can adjust your equalizer setting on yours but I would try it.
  17. Oh yea loosen and retighten all those connections on the board if you have not already done that.
  18. Just buy caps from Bob.....then get the woofer inductor from here https://www.parts-express.com/erse-super-q-25mh-16-awg-500w-inductor-crossover-coil--266-908 Take those diodes out. That will change it to a Type A crossover which most think is better. You can always change it back. I dont think Bob has the oil caps anymore. Here is schematic for type A. Type AA which is what you got now.
  19. I did not like the Yammy sound on 2 channel then found1970s HK 430,630...so when it came time to try AVR I got a Integra from accessories 4 less …..it sounds awesome after I adjusted the tone manually and I can also listen to 2 channel for music it also has phono input. Pretty easy to set up for all the channels. My friend has a Yammy AVR and it seemed a bit more difficult to set it up to me.
  20. I still got my Akia GX-F 71 3 head deck and still listen and record on it. Still got cassette deck in Jensen Healey a Blaupunkt and a player in the 4 runner. I have about 40 recorded and pre recoded tapes still sound good.
  21. Maybe this is wrong....but its been there a long time. In around 1983, we have the crossovers for the Klipschorn, LaScala, and Belle Klipsch becoming separate designs. We have the AK for the Klipschorn, the AL for the LaScala and the AB for the Belle Klipsch. At that point also, the Klipschorn crossover became a two section crossover with the woofer section mounted inside the woofer door. We do not build the AK, AL, or AB crossovers since they are generally considered to be "not the best". By around 1989, the design of these crossovers had changed (evolved) to the AK-3, AL-3 and AB-2 crossovers. We do build those. Looks like the Belle had different one in 83. Looks like a Belle to me.
  22. If you AA networks have not been re-capped you should do that first. But I recommend the 4500hz option from Crites plus you can put it back to A or AA. I would also point out that Belles do not use AA networks originally. Correction....got it off the post of Klipsch crossovers.
