  1. Since the black Heritage cloth is no longer available, I’m installing Crites black cloth on Cornwalls and Heresys. The pattern is quite different from the original Klipsh cloth and I’m trying to determine if the weave pattern is railroad or up the roll.

    railroad will yield less usable fabric from selvage to selvage, but  I want to install it correctly. I’ve seen it installed both ways and I’m trying find which is right.

     

  2. Sorry for your loss wuzzzer and everyone who has had to say goodbye to their best friend. Unfortunately, if you love dogs and you live long enough, you'll have to say goodbye too many times. For me, each time hurt more than the one before, and each time I swear I’ll never put myself through it again. They all put tears in my eyes when they passed, but they all put at least one smile on my face every day they were here.

    life is better with a dog in it.

    I took a similar approach with my Heresys, but I purchased the ALK Universal crossovers, as I have no crossover design skills. Changing out the wiring to 10AWG and upgrading with new SMAHL tweeters were big improvements with my newly capped stock crossovers. However, upgrading to the ALK crossovers was a substantially larger and very engaging upgrade in sonics.

    I’m changing the wiring from crossovers to drivers in several speakers to 12AWG. I’m using PE 095-672 gold crimp (and soldered) terminal 14-12 AWG #8 at the crossover (good fit). The 12AWG fits the holes in the K33 and K22 and can be soldered without need of a connector. The K55V with push pins will accept the 12AWG (tinned). 

    Anyway, my issues are with the K55V and K51V (both soldered terminals) and the K77s. The holes on the terminals are too small to accept the larger wire and too delicate to attempt enlarging the holes.

    Did you use additional connectors at these points to accommodate the 10AWG?

    Thanks
