    eBay has none for sale.

     

    Thank you for your input on other options.

    Klipsch will sell you a 15” Forte iii / iv passive.  Buy a pair and see how they sound.  Can always tune them lower by adding weight (washers work) to the back

    With several others listening too, I have compared ABC and D tweeters, that's why I have the extra drivers. Some were close, some stood out as a little better and one pair was so much better that they won hands down. 

    I’ve found options b&c to sound the best…. 🤔

    If I remember correctly the academy is the speaker manufactured to match the quartet, forte II and chorus II.  I still  own 3 academys, 4 forte IIs and the quartets. They are all timbre matched.   Go back about 15 years and read the post from the old members on the forum and those substitutes for the academy were discussed endlessly.

    I used an academy between forte I and II for years.  Always sounded small and veiled.  Been using a C7 for the last couple years and there is no way I'd go back to an academy.

  4. If the amps work fine with the forte, I’d suspect the Belle networks.  Especially with the recent recap.  Did the belle work good before the recap?

     

    Post a couple pics of the networks.

     

    What is the resistance measurement of each of the belle?  Multimeter on the speaker input terminals..

    I'm not sure why, but it appears to me that Al pushed the woofer to mid crossover from around 500hz to around 650hz.  The mid to tweeter crossover was moved to 6500hz.  I'd be curious if the mid can even get to 6000hz.  Not sure if the woofer can get to 650hz either.

     

     

    Stock forte II network has the crossovers at 650 and 7,000
