thackmate Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The K-49-KP is/was one of two 18" woofers built by Klipsch Professional (as designated by the KP suffix - if the suffix is "K" then it was built at the Klipsch & Assoc or Klipsch Inc Oakhaven, AR plant). It has a nominal impedance of 4 Ohms, power handling 400 W (that's AES standard continuous pink noise 50-500Hz with 1600 W peaks), sensitivity is 99.0 dB SPL @ 1M with 2.83V input, frequency response 30 - 3,500 Hz, min impedance 4.1 @ 160Hz, highest recommended crossover frequency 800Hz, recommended enclosure volume 3 -12 cu ft It was used in the KP480 and KP4000C compact subwoofer systems which was a relatively small bass reflex enclosure vented via a drone cone (passive radiator). It had a sister woofer the K-47-KP which was a nominal 8 ohm unit that was used in the KP680 and KP682 systems. I have Theile-Small parameters if you need or maybe Klipsch has an old cut sheet of the K-1847/K-1849 products as the woofers had this nomenclature when sold as "raw drivers" Hope that this helps Thack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 "I have Theile-Small parameters if you need " it's not current production so why not post it here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 it's not? hmmmm I'll look into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhtf Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Speakerfritz is correct. The K-49-KP is no longer in production. The K-49-EP2 is the woofer that replaced the K-49-KP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 is there a big diff? EP2 would be the replacement for the woofie in K480,no? Good to see you posting Freak. Did you read the threads on Pro stuff? Hey I need a K41, got any? RockStar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhtf Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The EP2 would be the direct replacement for the woofer in the K-480. I don't have any K41's, but if my memory is good. The K-41 was an EV woofer. I just looked on EV's website and the DL10X looks the same as the old K41. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thackmate Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The K41 did have an M suffix as in K41M and the M suffix designates it was an EV product built in Buchanan Michigan. But is it the equivalent of the DL10X? I would not think that looks makes it so. Better check that out in detail beforehand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
