[Need help on replacing tweeter on ‘82 KHorn]

I just take a look at the portion you mentioned. I first thought the top was glued to the sides. If not then remove six screws should be easy to handle.

Now I have to wait for DaveA’’s SMAHL DE120 to restock.

Thank you sir

Or this tool will do the job for $3 😃

Thanks sir for your suggestion. I was thinking about drill a hole thru cross bar. Hole big enough and precisely on “top” of the screw head so screwdrive shaft can fit thru.

Will study to see which way is easier to execute 😁

[Need help on replacing tweeter on ‘82 KHorn]

Hi all,

I try to upgrade my existing K77M tweeter with SMAHL DE120

Upon looking inside, I see that I can access to 2 bottom screws of the tweeter, but the top 2 screws seem to be blocked by the top brace cross bar.

If you’ve done this task, could you let me know how to remove the top 2 screws or any other ways to do so?

TIA

This is the wheels I ordered

B version which support up to 160lbs which is overloaded with our 180 lbs KHorns. Still works fine for me

Great job. Care to share what the cut dimensions are? I have some Khorns that I never listen to because the MCM1900 uses (hogs up lol) the ideal corners I have.  

2 sides per speaker: 39.25” x 16”

1 tail board per speaker: 39.25” x 9”. Weather strip goes along 2 edges of this board and top side board

Note: side board need 45 degree cut to meet tail board, other edge also 45 degree to have flush edge with grill side.

 

You also see I build the cart on 4 low 1” wheel for easy move around and to ensure bass bin completely seal at bottom

This board is 31.5” x 24” time two (another 4x8 plywood). This is option

Hope this help and good luck

The enclosed build turn out to be great, more than expected

Same location, same set up, KHorns produced more low freq and much louder in compare with my CW iii

The enclosed cabinet boost I would say around 50% more low end in compare with non-mod

Location measured at center of speaker, 4.5ft away from corners and 10.5ft apart
Cost: one 4x8 plywood $70, one quart of Duratex from PartExpress (one layer, one side) $45, 20ft of window shield strip $20.

I used brad nailer 18 gauge.

Let me try to post some pictures

Thanks to everyone responsed

Happy listening

As of now, 2 side boards and 9” wide tail board are cut and paint with duratex, along with braces.

Will put together and give it an audition to hear how good is the low freq goes.

Was thinking if I increase the width of tail board, would increase bass bin volume might help low freq.

I noticed the new AK6 has wider board.

I already bought a pair of SVS SB1000 pro if the modification did not yield good bass
Thanks

Yes, I saw Volti process. Want to start out with bass bin and go from there.

I might skip the remake top hat part since looking at them from front will not see the size “mismatch”.

Can be reversible if I need to resale with original design

Thanks

[Need help on AK6 K-Horn enclosure back board dimensions]

Hi all,

I currently own ‘82 KHorn and would like to build an enclosure just like latest AK6

I need the dimension of the back board width. My existing back board is 9 inches wide.

If you own a pair, could you send a minute measure the width of the back board

I see the Volti work but no dimension listed.

Thanks in advance

[Looking for a good amp for my new Cornwall IV's (Canada)]

My experience with Heresy IV - I first check youtube review about Decware SE84UFO 2wpc tube amp $995USD, put in an order but waiting list is long, atleast 1.5 year waiting. Then I found Alan Eaton 45 monos tube also has about 2 wpc. Order from him is better, ready to ship at $1400 a pair plus shipping

2 wpc but it sounds so good and loud - I use about half volume to reach my normal listening level

Both amps have volume control, Decware has 2 inputs.

Eaton amp is wonderful sounding - should match your Cornwall 102dB sensitivity

Happy listening

Having had the fortunate opportunity to work with lots of tube amps and solid state amps, I had a chance to spend a few days with the Alan Eaton 45 integrated tube amp at 1.5 watts per channel and ended up buying the Alan Eaton 45 monos at 3 watts per channel (video links below). May not seem like much power but I'll tried to put matters into perspective. Everyone's room is different, so what works for me may not work for you. It amazes me how long people are waiting on Decware, yet have no idea about Alan Eaton's incredible work which was also discussed on the Glow in the Dark audio site . The main reason is because of the popularity of Steve Guttenberg's Decware Zen reviews combined with increased sales from the pandemic. Regardless, these monos are the finest amps I've ever used regardless of cost and they drive the Heresy beautifully!

 

Hi Angelaudio,

I just purchased a pair of Monos 45. Alan Eaton told me that this monos produce 2 wpc. Yes, I saw youtube mention 3wpc, but I'm more with Alan himself  - Mate with my Heresy IV and they're a match made in heaven. On Hersy IV, it beats all other tube amps I currently have: Cary CAD-805 monos (50wpc), ARS Sonum (30wpc), TAD-60 with SET bias (10wpc), Atma-Sphere MA-1 OTL monos (100wpc). This monos 45 has zero volume at 12 o'clock position and max at 10 o'clock. I'm listening at 4 o'clock with satisfy sound level  Very happy with my finding on this product - was on 1.5 year waiting list Decware SE84UFO2, cancelled it and jump on this 45 tube type
