  1. At work right now, will post a pic this evening. It is bad, I seriously doubt it can be repaired. I should have addressed it a couple years ago when I noticed a small tear in it. To my surprise, it has grown ten times in size. It appears to be just rotting away. Not even sure how it began, the speakers have been in the same spot against a wall for years. I'm the original owner and the speakers have been well taken care of and are in excellent condition outside of this one passive raditor. I'm willing to spend the money to replace it, if a replacement is obtainable, as long as it's not a ridiculous amount. I just can't find any info on replacements. I also plan on replacing the crossovers and tweeters with Crites in the near future as well.
  2. One of my Chorus II's needs the passive raditor replaced. It is beyond repair. Where can I find a replacement? My google search has come up empty. Any leads would be greatly appreciated Thanks.
  3. Thanks for the info. I do know the Chorus II's and the Mc sound like a good match to my ears, especially with a quality source. Do either of you know the rated bass response for the Chorus II's? I have a 12" Velodyne sub and was curious about setting the crossover. Right now it seems the smoothest between 60-80hz. I have also contemplated getting the Klipsch 15" front ported sub as a better match for the Chorus II's. Also, one of the passive raditors needs to be replaced. It appears there is no replacement for it via Klipsch. At least what I can tell searching online.
  4. Recently bought a new McIntosh 275 2-channel tube amp and currently using my Chorus II's with it. I hear from some that it's not a "good match", but it has made my Chorus IIs sound incredible, better than they ever have... warm deep rich bottom end and has taken the edge off the horns. Demoed a pair of B&W CM-9's with the McIntosh and at lower volumes they had an excellent soundstage and imaging, but sounded flat and muffled at higher levels, espeically when not seated in the sweet spot. Whereas the Chorus II's may have shortened the depth of the soundstage, they had far more high end detail and with the 15" wolfers, obviously had a deeper richer bottom end and filled my 19'x23' room. Any suggestions? Do I pursue new speakers for a "better match" for the tubes or stick with my Chrous II's?
