B&C DE10 upgrade/retrofit for KLF20/KLF30 K-79-K
Iteachstem posted a topic in Technical/Restorations
I wanted to document my upgrade process for those of you who wanted to take the tinkering/budget approach to installing the B&C DE 10 driver into your KLF20/30 etc. speakers. Feel free to ask any questions. I purchased these drop in fit drivers for $36 plus tax on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Paudio-PHT-409-Horn-Tweeter-Supertweeter-Klipsch-replace-K-79-K-75-K-76-K-84/372632527011?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 And the B&C Drivers: https://www.parts-express.com/bc-de10-8-1-mylar-horn-compression-driver-8-ohm-2-bolt--294-600 Then, I disassembled them as you will only use the horn parts. Remove the disc and cut out, dremel, sand, etc. these center phase plugs according to the pictures. The B&C Drivers already have a phase plug inside the housing. That concludes the modification of the lens assembly. -
Has anyone tried cutting out and adding a larger horn for the tweeter on The KLF 20/30? I was looking at adding the B&C ME15 horn: https://www.parts-express.com/bc-me15-1-exponential-horn-90x60-2-bolt--294-620 with the B&C DE10 driver:https://www.parts-express.com/bc-de10-8-1-mylar-horn-compression-driver-8-ohm-2-bolt--294-600 And I was thinking with a little cutting and creativity it will just barely fit between the top of the cabinet and the mid horn. All of the parts would be at around $150 with shipping. Has anyone attempted this or anything similar? Thoughts?

Has anyone found a decent 2 bolt to 3 bolt adapted for a 2 bolt driver to mount to a 3 bolt horn? I'm looking at getting the B&C DE10 to replace my K-79-K tweeter in my KLF-20's. Would this work? https://www.parts-express.com/eminence-ha1-14-1-aluminum-horn-adapter--290-5624#lblReviews

Cornscala 3 way horn speaker system. Selling off my newly built Klipsch style Cornscala's which are models after the famous Cornwalls and built by yours truly. For those who don't know a Cornscala utilizes the best parts of a Klipsch Cornwall and a La Scala together. Veneer is Rosewood with a satin lacquer finish. Mortarboard and back panel are in Black satin lacquer. Gorgeous on the eyes.Cabinetry is done with Baltic birch and utilizes biscuits and additional bracing for strength, reduce distortion and resonance. Grills included and utilize stock Klipsch cloth for the classic look. Utilizing a massive direct radiating 15" woofer for bass. This is the same woofer use in the Klipsch 904 and in the Cinema line. The woofer's weight rests on its shoulder and not its face to increase rigidity and minimize basket flex. The additional double motor board around the woofer provides isolation and the rigidity needed for truly chest thumping bass. Midrange horn is sourced from fastlane audio Eliptrac 400 with Fc@ 350 and being crossed @ 450hz. Midrange driver is the famous BMS 4592 Mid with Neodymium magnets, Polyester Diaphragm material and incredible 300hz crossover. The Tweeter is fastlaneaudio eliptrac paired with B&C DE-10 Mylar diaphragm crossed and 5800hz will outside of the range of the human voice. Crossovers are ALK CSW-450 which is a custom licensed crossover, combining the AP12-450 and the cornscalawal high frequency section. This is a significant improvement over a stock cornscalawal as it proved a 12db 2nd order crossover on the bass thus providing tighter and faster bass response. Frequency response from 34hz to 20Khz -3db. The Cornscalas are 98db efficient means that you can play with authority room filling music with 1 watt. I can demo with 1watt single ended tube amps to 107watts and youll see they sine with both. All internal wiring is silver plated teflon. This is master piece of a project and far more than the sum of its parts.Specs: Cabinet: 34"H x 24" W x 16" D Weight: 145lbs/per cabinet Quoted Frequency Response: 34Hz - 20Khz -3db, 98db Sensitivity: 99db 1W/1m, 200 watts/maximum power handlingWilling to ship via road freight. Extensive experience transporting via road freight, reasonable pricing. Justin 323-868-9722 Justin 323-88-9722
