(2)x F-1 tower speakers { k-1075-sb 6.5" woofers k-101-s 1" tweeters with 5" horn} (1)x SC.5 center channel [ k-1097-av 4" woofer k-110-a 1" tweeter ] (4)x SS.5 side surround speakers [k-1098-a 4" woofers k-110-a 1"tweeters] (1)x KV-1 [k-1016-kv 5.25" woofers k-89-kv 1" tweeter] and finally (2)x KG.5 [k-1015-kw 5.25" woofers, k-88-k tweeters]. I trying to go for a mmtmm using (4)x 4" mid woofers or even (4)x5.25" mid woofers with 2.5 way crossover or go with a mtm configuration using (2)x6.5" woofers (k-1075-sb and (1)x k101-s 1" tweeter w/ 5" horn.....I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING AND SEARCHING FOR THIELE SMALL PARAMETERS FOR ANY OF THE DRIVERS I HAVE WITH NO LUCK!!! Also have been having trouble designing a 2.5 crossover since I can only find crossover calculators for 2-way or 3-way designs, PLEASE ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRICIATED.....(LOOKING FOR T/S PARAMETERS AND HELP/GUIDANCE FOR 2.5-WAY CROSSOVER... Thank you, Gcyrusday

By the way my new DIY center plan using parts from two F1's is to pair with (2) F-30's front L&R (2) B-20's L&R rear surrounds (2) L&R side surrounds with (2)ksw-10 subs plus (2) side surrounds for hight speakers for my 7.2 Home Theater system and have a totally separate system for music using the Heresy speakers for L&R mains with various other speakers I have. Some of these other speakers will be used for DIY projects.

Ok so I think I'm putting the H-700 center on hold for now I just purchased a complete 5.1 klipsch Synergy set (2) F1's a sc.5 with (2) surrounds and a ksw-10 sub so I'm thinking about taking the assorted parts for DIY projects starting with a center channel from the (2) F1's

HELLO EVERYONE, I REALLY WANT TO MAKE A DIY CENTER CHANNEL TO GO WITH MY H-700'S (HERESY) BUT I REALL NEED SOME HELP...ADVICE, GUIDANCE AND PATIENCE. I WOULD LOVE TO DO A WTMW WITH ALL ORIGINAL PARTS BUT NEED TO KEEP THE COST DOWN. WHAT I WILL NEED HELP WITH THE MOST IS THE CROSSOVER. I AM VERY OPEN TO ANY IDEAS AND OR SUGGESTIONS SEEING I WANT TO DO EVERYTHING DIY. WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BUILD A PAIR OF SUBWOOFERS IN NEAR FUTURE AS WELL.

I have a F3 iii 8" woofer with a blown voice coil from a Synergy F30 tower speaker that I want to repair and re-use. Any help would be greatly appreciated also suggestions on where to get it. Thak U all in advance.

Unfortunately I'm on a very tight budget so under $300. I'm looking to power Heresy/H-700's and leaning towards tubes. I remember when I was younger and in a band the sound from the tube amps was so much warmer with more soul. But I am just getting started so willing to take advice.

What are your thoughts on a 12 channel amplifier? I found one by Pyle Pro PT12050CH 12 channel amplifier. In all discloser I do not know very much or have much experience with Home Audio amplifiers so its mostly new to me. I was in a band and used various types of amps in that context. I realize because of my budget limits I don't have a lot of options but I need to start somewhere. my home theater does not have Dolby Atmos but does have DTS-true HD /master audio and Dolby true HD its an older Yamaha RX-v663 I also have an Onkyo TX-NR609 but having isues with the Onkyo (no sound) I am interested in building a DIY amplifier but need to know which components I should get.

Hi I'm new to this forum, any forum actually but very glad I joined. I'm very interested in building a DIY amplifier for my system maybe 2 amps 1 for 7.2 home theater and the other for my Heresy's to listen in hi fi stereo. Any suggestions, pointers, advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated. I am on a very low budget so can't spend very much $ but have lots of enthusiasm.

Not sure what type of amplifier I should get either. I'm thinking something that would power my home theater 7 channels plus presence speakers and maybe something to use for just hi fi stereo. any thoughts and/or opinions welcome.

In response to the question what is affordable... around $50 to $275 range thinking used maybe. Not sure how much I would need it but would like to try out a tube amp, maybe build it myself for fun.

How do I find info on these speakers by the numbers on the drivers?

So I recently accquired a pair of ??? supposedly H-700/Heresy speakers with type c crossovers all the parts a correct but the cabs have the horns and tweeters vertical. I can't find a label but part of is seems right but also seems all wrong. I plan on doing a re-cap on the crossovers and go from there. I really want to get them to sound the way a Heresy/H-700 should. Thinking of making new cabinets for them to get them up to specs. The cabs seem like they were modified with a different motor board speaker size is H- 24 3/4" w- 15" D 11 3/4" with 3/4" wood. Rear panel is removable like it should be.

sorry you're correct k 77 m. Will try to post more pic's soon. If anyone can send me actual sizes for cabinets inside and outside dimensions I would really appreciate it, also if possible include placements on motor board.........Thamk you

Up till now my RX-v663 runs (2) F-30's, (2) R-41's, (2) B-20's a center channel speaker ??? and (2) SS-5BK's as presence speakers and now I've been running 2 Heresy-ish type sprakers as well. i do thik it is time fo an amplifier though. or two.

hi, I'm new to forum but yes it should run at 6ohms or 8 ohms, you will need to set that in your speaker settings when setting up your receiver. U can use the YPAO mic and it will do most of the work for you. I have the RX-v663 and like it for the most part.

This is the first Forum I have ever joined and I'm glad I did. I am in need of an amplifier for my home theater but am on a very tight budget ( system listed in my profile) I also received a pair of Heresy-ish speakers that would use for zone B speakers for Hi-Fi listening that would need an amp for as well. Any advice, suggestions and input would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Yes I have listened to them and played around with placement a little (kinda short on room) they definitely sound better lower to the ground and at higher volume (more power) still not what I expect they should sound like. I opened up the other on and found K-22-R with a red circle with H or M or N in center, K-77-m stamped with R on it and K-55-v also with type c crossover. It appears both speakers have a driver with the letter R stamped on them. R= Replacement? the K-55-m looks newer with square magnet. numbers stamped on the K-55-V's are 11959 and 11974, are these serial numbers? the k-22 r's are 8591 it is the one with a red circle and dot orletter not sure the other one is 10205 with letter R bellow k77 m has # 1054C stamped on it the other one has the letter R bellow the # 716594. are these numbers all serial numbers? I definitely want to use these speakers and therefor work on them as I can, I have a very limited budget at the moment.

Everything together registered at 7.5 ohms. Going to play around with placement though kinda limited.

I still have to open the other one which seems to be in better shape

Yes I have listed to them and they sound a little muddy. X-over update needed. The k-22-r reads 15.9 ohms k-55-v 10.6 k77 7.5 with type c crossover

I was told 2nd hand they were in fact Heresy speakers though I believe it's original parts put in DIY cabinets. I would like to get them back to actual or better specs . Any suggestions, guidance or direction would be helpful. Kinda thinking rebuild the cabinets along with advice to anything to improve what I have. A Frankenspeaker.

I recently received a pair of "vintage" Klipsch Heresy speakers but they don't seem right. They have vertical horns and tweeters. I haven't seen any others like that. They have k-22r woofers with the expected k55 and k77's the horn is the 700 not the 1000 with type "C" crossovers. Dimensions are 24 3/4 in high, 15 in wide and 12in deep. Can anyone tell me anything about them? I've been a Klipsch fan for years and had shivers when I got them but not quite meeting my expectations. Any advice or suggestions as to what I can do with them to get better sound wiuld be much appreciated
