thank you, hopefully in time ill be able to navigate this site with ease though im not very computer savvy. I was just trying to get some info on my newly acquired LS I as to the xo and serial #. I wanted to upload pics of my AL and pics I found online, mines missing a piece and dosnt appear to have ever been there also my serial #s are 3433 and 3434

I tried faststone photo resizer for someone on this forums request doesn't seem to work though in my Android phone. Also not sure if I'm posting my rather long-winded question right spot. Again I need help point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated

Good morning to all. I have been a huge fan of Klipsch for quite a number of years now and have only had experience with the klf-30, RF 5, and rb35 all of which in my opinion are just fantastic. I have been in the process of slowly updating and upgrading my klf 30s until just a few days ago I ran into a set of lascala Industrials not two blocks from me, the seller tells me they have new Crites titanium tweeter and to let them break in a little before I really get on the volume, I wasn't aware at the time that they don't sell TIs for the lascalas at least to my knowledge, so longer story shorter I got them hook them up to my system, I'm running them off a Denon 987 pre out to a Carver Sunfire 300, I got to say they sounded nice even at a moderate level per the new titanium diaphragms, I really got a crank it up a bit for the 30 s to Blossom but man when they do they do, anyway about 45 minutes into moderate listening I blew a tweeter and one of the lascalas and I really literally got a sick feeling in my stomach as I laid out a bunch of money I couldn't really afford to spend on speakers, so I pulled a tweeter apart to find out it has a phenolic diaphragm and not only that it has a handwritten date on it 4-23-87 the seller said he mistakenly said crates that they were actually replaced by a local repair shop but to me that doesn't explain the date is written on the actual diaphragm anyway in the sellers defense he did offer to replace the diaphragms I declined saying that I would handle it but thank you. So I'm down to this, is it safe to assume that these are from 1987 based on the date on the diaphragm? The serial number has only 4 digits and I found and downloaded a PDF file with all the code explanations for Klipsch speakers however none of them at least to me explain the numbers on my lascalas also I find out that the AL crossover is not a good one and after doing some reading on this forum I believe at least one member on more than one occasion said that clipping something out of the crossover would essentially turn the AL into an AA? I have looked at pictures all of a stock AL and at the bottom right of the crossover as you're looking in the speaker there is something between the capacitor and I guess the rectifier? That is not in my crossover, there are no screw holes to indicate that there was ever anything there so I'm a little confused about that. I am going to try to post some pictures of what I am talking about hopefully they go through. I just spoke with Michael Crites a few weeks ago to order some new crossover for my klf 30s and found out Pops passed away I had the pleasure of speaking with him on a number of occasions in the past he is missed. Any information you folks might be able to share with me is greatly appreciated thanks in advance.PS. I guess photo files are too big and I'm unable to post, hopefully somebody understands what I'm trying to say thanks again.
