    When you cut the hole in the ceiling and after the wires are where they need to be placed, you could stuff some ROXUL mineral wool or pack some pieces of fiberglass insulation batts into the space between the two speakers.

    The cast frame Crites woofer can be installed if you are willing to shave some wood from inside the doghouse, but I would suggest try adding some bass boost EQ and adjusting speaker placement before changing parts. IIRC your La Scalas may have the K-43 woofers. If yes, you can add a lot of EQ while experimenting.

    It is interesting to read about your experiments and results. Your room looks good.

    They are all original and fully functional. I bought them many years ago, tried them as tweeters on my La Scalas. They sound good, but the 511B horns made my speakers look sort of like Altecs, so I took them off and they have been on a shelf, unused for years. I have sent you a PM.

    I have some of these. I will take fresh pictures tonight.

    I passive bi-amp some of my stereo systems when using a bi-amp capable receiver connected to speakers employing split passive crossovers. Color code and/or carefully label your wires and follow the receiver manufacturer's connection instructions.

    It looks like a replacement for the K-33-E woofer. https://reconingspeakers.com/product/klipsch-k-33-e-woofer-121501/ The speaker frame gasket has been scuffed. Your shipping box is dated 2017-2-6, so the hand written date may not indicate anything significant.

    Yes the K-77 diaphragm with voice coil can be replaced. Check with Bob Crites, https://critesspeakers.com/klipsch_tweeters.html. You might want read about the CT-125 replacement tweeters described on that same webpage, before repairing your fried K-77. Also read about the CT-120, https://critesspeakers.com/new-tweeter-replacement-for.html.

    I have not heard the KPT-1515/Cinema Grandeur yet, but I did see your favorite duet in concert. Amazing amount of sounds that Gabriela and Rodrigo can produce with two guitars. I was especially impressed by their version of Pink Floyd's song Echoes.

    The K-33 is the 15" woofer in your La Scala II. The K-43 is the 15" woofer with higher power handling and slightly different frequency response, that was in the Industrial La Scala and some other Pro Klipsch speakers. Swapping out woofers may be a fun project for some of us, but might be more than you need to adjust your system.

    Good observation. I would guess that the person who did the video, https://www.klipsch.com/products/klipschorn may have omitted some parts of the cabinet drawing for illustration purposes. There is another complete panel missing in the video. In my picture, one side panel is not installed on the bass cabinet, so you can see inside.

    Your Jubilees, 1802 sub and the whole room look very good.
  14. Khornukopia
    Those retro appliances look interesting.
  15. Khornukopia
    That is going to be a nice house!

    I have an Aircom fan on one of my receivers. The thermostatic fan keeps the amps at a cooler operating temperature, even if running hot is normally acceptable. I think it is worth the price.
  17. Khornukopia
    I like your audio system and listening room.
  18. Khornukopia
    You could list them in the Garage Sale section of this website, at the price you want. Then consider any serious offers. Your location and/or availability to box, pallet and ship will affect the size of your market.

    Good looking walnut Klipschorns.
  20. Khornukopia
    How do you like your speakers? Have you tried the bass and treble switches, and/or aiming the cones?
  21. Khornukopia
    My vote is to add the photos to this thread.

    Using a digital active crossover allows you to experiment in a controlled manner.
  23. Khornukopia
    At that low price, I had to buy TWO of them so I could bump my order up to the free shipping qualification.

    The factory crossover spec for woofer to mid-range on the Klipschorn is 450 Hz. That should be a good number to start with.

    You can place some of your Basotect foam sound absorber on the walls also, if you have extra pieces.
