Toobwacky Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi All, I haven't owned a pair of Klipsch since I used a pair of La Scalas in a portable DJ system 30 years ago. Boy do I miss dem La Scalas! Anyway, I'm thinking a pair of Klipsch would be a good match for a tube amp that I acquired recently (38 WPC.) The KG 4.2 or (preferably) 4.5 are the largest models I can fit into my rather cramped listening space so it is these 2 models I will be looking for. Is foam rot, now or in the future, an issue with these models and if so, what would be the typical cost of a refoam job per driver? Thanks a lot! tw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 http://www.speakerrepair.com/OCSreprc.html I've used these folks for a reconing job that was nicely done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db101 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I'm not aware if Klipsch ever used foam surround drivers or not, but as long as there is no voice coil damage (which would mean reconing), replacing foam surrounds is a fairly quick and easy repair for the diy'er.
