  1. I’ve actually been watching for those too! I’ve seen a few surrounds listed but they’re all kinda pricey to buy for parts. Thanks for the advice!
  2. Pretty much like the title says. I’ve got a set of ksp-400, a c6, and some s6 speakers and I’ve got a rattling driver in my center I found some on ebouy and bought a while back but I’ve had another one let go. Wondering if anyone on here might have some they’d part with or knows where I can find any? Many thanks! And Merry Christmas!!!

  4. Ok. Then they're working great, I wonder why running them on line level wasn't working...
  5. And all my preamp settings are good. Sub is turned on, crossover is set correct, speakers set to large although I tried it both ways. I know the sub out puts are working because I ran a 5.2 setup for a little while and both of my subs were working just fine.
  6. Well when I brought them home I hooked them up on a single wire input with all the jumpers in place. They work great like that! I was just curious about hooking them up the other way and seeing how they sound, so I pulled the jumpers to the low side input and ran a line level input from my sunfire preamp. (Which has three sub outs) and that's when I couldn't get any bass out of them. The amps seem ok. Switch was set to auto, led showed a signal present, woofers were "moving" just not performing well at all. Both speakers were doing the exact same thing When they are wired with a single wire and all jumpers in place are the woofers running on the internal amp or on my carver amp?
  7. I have the manual and it never really says clearly what happens when you hook in with a speaker level input. I "think" the amps are working because the woofers were working and producing sound just doing it poorly. I don't know the amp specs or how they're supposed to perform. After what I tried it comes across as the klipsch amps just aren't that good.
  8. I have a set of ksp400's. I tried hooking the woofers up on a line level input today and running the just the miss and highs with my carver. Sounded terrible. Weak, soft, unresponsive bass. So I hooked em back up on a speaker level input. Running all three inputs, highs, mids, and lows off my carver. Sounds great. So here's the question, when I hook my ksp's up on a powered speaker level input does it bypass the klipsch amp and run soley off my power? How does that work? Because they're seriously unimpressive with a line level input running the lows.
  9. Thanks for the effort on it! I've tried callin klipsch and haven't gotten through. I can't find the difference between the kv, the kb, and just the k versions of the k-1057 driver
  10. And I took my blown one out. It is a kb not a kv
  11. Do you know what the "b" stands for. Seems like there are k,kb, and kv.
  12. I got a nice set of ksp-400 mains a while back and I seem to have blown a mid range driver in one and can't find a place to buy a replacement. They have a k-1057-kb. There are some used k-1057-k on the bay but I don't know the difference. Any help on where I can get a replacement driver would be awesome! Also I don't really ever turn the volume up that high on my rig, is there something I could have done that would have caused it. When it let go it was powered by a carver m1.5t. Any help is awesome! Thanks. Nic.
  13. Great. Thanks for the help. Can't find any k-1057-kb. Only k-1057-k. Don't know the difference.
