Gonna get started on the foam install today.

Pretty sure K57, but its been 14 or 15yrs since I looked inside. I think metal horns as well. I'll pull the backs off next time I get up there. I'm now thinking I can pull the home built B's from the CW's and up grade them with new caps and use them in my Super Heresy project. Then I could just order new B3"s from Crites for the CW's. Thanks for all that info, it helps getting all my ducks in a row.

sounds to me I should of built the B3 xo for these instead of the B. Lately was thinking up grade with new caps to a B2, but now it seems B3 may be what it needs.

what components are in the your CW2?

Just thinking some updates on the home brew cornwalls maybe as well. K55G mid, Elliptrac DE110 tweet with B2 xo. What do ya think. What are the differences between the k57 and the k55g?

Either would work fine with dark stain cabinets, but cane might really pop.

Great info guys. Thanks for that.

Still curious to what the steeper slope does to the sound of the speaker? I need to check, but i think i have the k57 mid drivers that are currently stored at my fathers home.

Where would someone find Tweed grills one Heresy 1's? I might replace my black grills if the price isn't too extreme.

Looks like Bossman has tried one and likes it. Thats makes things a little more easy purchasing. I think i like the black one better thou.

Here's a quick pic. Anyone here try one yet?

Simular to the other Douk. Can't really pull the trigger just look, so in the tire kicking stages yet.

didn't think so. just for looks.

i could, but then the tag would be on the inside. just gonna leave be. Foam showed up today. Maybe tomorrow i can get that done.

Heres the backs. I know, both tubes on same side. Dooooh! I got distracted, but oh well, its done now.

Heres the fronts.

One more.

Heres mine. Audcom 30w/ch thumper el34 with kt77's. I have home built cornwalls with vert horns and soon to be Super Heresy's. Yamaha av RX-v2092 thumper with a sony modded c333es sacd player.

went well. cut a 5 1/4 hole and then cut slits for the supporting ribs in the port. still waiting for sound deadener to show up. should of been here today.

Ok, thanks. I'v been using a B xo with musicaps. They sound fantastic at mid volumes(90)db, but pump these up to over 105db and they start to get hot to the ear. I think i'm using the k57 with the aluminum k600 horn. I will have to check. Was thinking about toning these down a bit with either k55g drivers or a B2 xo or maybe both. What combos of drivers and xo sounded the best in the vert cornwalls IYO?

yes. Just researched a bit and it looks like verts or cornwall 1 came with k77, k55v and k33 woofer. not sure on the xo thou.

ok, not sure when the vert's were built, but I built some home brew vert's back in 2003 and used k57 mid, k77 tweet and k33 with a B xo. curious to if the mid and xo is correct for this combo? Its been awhile.

Anybody know what drivers and xo was in the early cornwalls and would they be the same as the 1's?

port measures 6.25" on flared end and looks like hole could be cut .5" smaller to give a 5 3/4" hole for the port. should be good. may get started on these tonight. thanks
