How do I get bass out of Klipsch Cornwall IV?

Hi @jasonbuckeye you can watch here You can also have bought a year and the speakers were manufactured a year or 18 months before: this is my case, I bought my Cornwall III new and still factory-packaged in July 2016 from Deutschland, and yet they were manufactured in April 2015 😜 Do you have a picture of your back labels, so we can see the S/N #'s ☺️

Nice Blaupunkt, there was a nice car radio with this beautiful blue dot in my father's Ford Germany Taunus 15M when I was a child, it was around 1970 and I'm in France Same, it's internet pic

Nice Wheels 😍 I also had a 2000 Alfa Romeo 156 with telephone wheels, sports chassis, high-end Momo interior in Saddles leather, 3-spoke sports steering wheel, carbon insert on the center console: it is sold now ! Sorry, I don't have a better photo : No rust on mine, there it is in the rain, but for me a fairly dry Mediterranean climate with beautiful sunshine!

Mine Mustang V6 2010 Candy Red, with European taillights, amber blinkers 😜 not red light blinkers sequential US 😭 It's an electronics engineer buddy who made me the plans of the box with resistors and a control transistor, because it was necessary to demultiplex the electrical information of the Osram system with LEDs which make position lights, stop lights and flashing lights sequential on the same 3 led bulbs. Then the turn signal signal was sent to an amber bulb, via a power relay instead of one of the two reversing lights. Edit: I forgot to say that the car is imported from the USA in 2011, but not by Ford and here in Europe the American red flashing lights are prohibited: so we modify the lights in European version ourselves for the homologation and the movement certificate ☺️

Hi @MéloManiac Here's what you can afford before you go home (get well soon man) 👍 If you want to discover Jazz, with a wonderful book "Jazz from John Fordham", that will make you discover chronologically the history, the instruments, the musicians and the records. You can choose essential Jazz records according to a musician, an era, a style, which is great for a beginner and the others! Once you have chosen the disc(s) you want to buy, you can search with discogs if there are modern reissues and/or if you want to buy a used version! I don't know if you are French-speaking : there is a French version, but I don't know if there are Dutch or German versions

Hi @MeloManiac For these two artists, try to find these two great albums: You will make two superb trips: the first will take you to the American West of the time of the cowboys and the second will make you visit the streets and the lively bars of Tijuana in Mexico: a change of scenery guaranteed ☺️

Sorry, not good reply from me 😜 -
I saw this artist in concert in late 1979 or early 1980 😍

Hi, Arrrgggg! @KROCK I'm jealous, a year or two ago, I almost bought this superb Dave Brubeck in front of the Pan-Am plane : LP Mint, and then I hesitated and it was sold: I really should find a copy for sale one of these days ☺️

Hi @MeloManiac Funny, I read your message tonight. You know that I live in the north of the Camargue, this afternoon I passed by the Méjanes estate on my way to the Vacarès pond. To clarify, the domain of Méjanes was the domain of Mr. Paul Ricard: cheers, friend! https://mejanes-camargue.fr/ https://mejanes-camargue.fr/fr/musee-paul-ricard https://mejanes-camargue.fr/fr/domaine https://www.topcamargue.com/domaine-paulricard-mejanes/ For info and precision, Camargue races is not a Bullfight. The bull is the hero of the race, he alone is applauded in the arena, no one hurts him, the raseteurs race with him to take trophies hanging from his horns. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_camarguaise

Making rear port a front port klf20
mustang_flht replied to Got_Horns's topic in Technical/Restorations
Hi @Got_Horns You can close the rear vents and make 2 vents under the speaker, then put a stand or spikes to raise it. It may be necessary to change the length of the tubes a little, but for that it will be necessary to experiment. You can even make a foot that sends the wave forward and will be less sensitive to the back wall. Everything is invisible except the new foot or the spikes: if you're a good handyman, it can fit perfectly. The only drawback is that the speaker will be 1 or 1 1/2 inches higher. the result may look like the one on the right or the one on the left -
Hi @RichMaty Part of your answer is here on the forum: For the rest, ask if the kit is still available at Klipsch support : https://support.klipsch.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024356652-How-To-Contact-Us-for-Support ☺️

Amarok, my favorite album from Mike Oldfield

No, unfortunately, I threw it away in the early 80s: too bad 🙃

Hi, Haaaa! one of my dreams when I started serious hifi in 1978, as the Ultimo was too expensive I bought an Ortofon MC10 + transformer STM72 in 1979. Then as I started working in 1980 I offered myself one of the first Dynavector: a Karat 23R with the ruby cantilever, what a marvel of softness, but very fragile ! 🤩

no problem, it's normal 😉 I added a little security phrase for your driver in my message above ☺️

if there is no debris between the diaphragm and the phase plug. You disassemble the diaphragm and clean the passage of the coil between the plates of the magnetic system with a small thin paper. You will take the opportunity to examine the coil: see if it rubs in the passage between the plates, see if it is swollen and or burned: if it has heated it may rub between the plates of the magnetic system and make a small friction noise. for electrical and sound tests, even at low level: I advise you to put a 10, 20 or 30 µF bipolar safety capacitor in series depending on the driver's impedance

Hello ! Yes, like @CWOReilly checked if there is no dust or debris at the level of the diaphragm. here the cut of a K55V (I don't know which model you have K55M, V ...) there is little space between the diaphragm and the phasing plug: a single piece of debris can make noise, even at low level.
