djk Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Klipsch got into woofer manufacture in the early 80s with the 8" in the KG2, followed by 12" for the Forte and Heresy. When Ray Hepner died they bought the tooling for the new mids and tweeters used in all the models (except K-horn/B/LS). KSC started building most of their smaller networks, and later made a lot of the horns and woofers too. http://www.kscind.com/home.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
