  1. I am pretty sure i am going to use a 33 from Mundorf and Jantzen on the other two.
  2. Okay, i just checked and i didn't only forget to post it. I forgot to take it too. God damn it.😋 Well i guess i'll have to take out the bottom woofer again on one of them to take one more before i start ordering stuff. They didn't write any value on the big one though. Which is hella annoying. Any idea how i find out the value of that one?
  3. My mistake. I didn't post the picture with the coil values. They are written inside of each of the small cores.
  4. Does anyone have an image of the crossover from the Rf7 ll to compare with just for fun?
  5. No worries. It look somewhat decent except for that big ugly spool in the bottom. It is an iron core. I don't like that. And thanks for throwing up the image by the way. I couldn't figure out how to do that. 😋
  6. There is a link three posts up mate?
  7. Not as much as with a pair of Rp's to be honest. These are pretty well braced. But i have pretty much no cabinet vibrations even with very high volumes. I was a bit chocked to see that the back at the top was just bare wood. I got a bit more precission at the higher frequencies. And as mentioned. No vibrations to the touch anymore. It was pretty late when i did it last night so i didn't do any critical listening at higher volumes. It's still pretty early so i'll wait a couple of hours before i crank it up but my initial impressions is that the bass is a bit tighter too. Not by the extend that you would notice it with lesser electronics i think. But it was noticeable at the high frequencies. Less ringing and a bit more precission. But hell a 50 dollar upgrade to minimize vibrations is well worth it in my book. I only took them apart to see the crossover, but it seemed like a good idea to stiffen them up a bit and get rid of some of the noise inside the cabinet when i was at it.
  8. I couldn't help myself. I had to throw in some bitumen. 😋 https://imgur.com/a/HWt94Vn
  9. I finally got around to it. https://imgur.com/a/7qFZGKB
  10. I will be putting up pictures on Saturday.
  11. No worry. I get where you are coming from. This is one of those 5% scenarios. But hey. I love these speakers. And i would gladly pay to get those 5%. I am driving them with a Hegel H590. So i already overkilled them. 😉
  12. Really? No one has done this yet? They have been around for a while now. And yes i am pretty sure that the wiring and crossover could use an upgrade. I am just not that sure what would be the best way around this. I could always use the same values but with better components and some good wiring. Just wanted to see what you guys have done with yours.
  13. I never tried that and anyway, thanks but that is a no go for me.
  14. You are absolutely right. Hence i was hoping for some good advice from you guys. 🙂
  15. That's the plan. And no i am not 100% sure that it would be an improvement if i just change some stuff to more expensive versions with the same values. I got a mate who upgraded the internals of a pair of rb,'s though and they really sound amazing. Better components is always a good idea no matter what speaker we are talking about. You are not right about that. I could easily a/b blindfolded if you changed my speaker cables. The same goes for the internal wiring just by a greater extend i suspect. I didn't believe in wires until a mate tried a new pair in my system and holy shit, i upgraded everything shortly after.
  16. There is always a reason for better sound. The main reason being because i can.
  17. Shortcomings or not. I ain't gonna replace the whole thing. Just the "lesser" parts. Terminals, wiring etc.
  18. Well, the rest of my gear is pretty much three times as good as the rf7. I just really like the rf and therefore, getting a few % extra out of them would be welcome.
  19. Hey guys. I have been following the forum on and off for a couple of years but this is my first actual post. I am quite curious if anyone have upgraded the internals of the RF7 lll? I remember someone on here make crossovers for the original at least. I am thinking about upgrading the wiring, terminals etc. Any recommendations? Everything else in my system is pretty decent. I just want to see if i can get anything more out of these amazing speakers. Right now i am pretty confident that the internals of the speakers is the bottle neck so to speak.
