Straycat Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Just picked up a set of early '80z Klipsch CornWalls BUT they are missing the nuts that hold the speaker wires on, anybody know what thread that is? Was it a special knurled finger nut? Thanks, Lon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Bummer. Those aren't made anymore. I'd think about buying a 2nd beat-up pair and using the special machine screws on your good pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Robin Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 How about just using the regular slotted screws below the threaded stud; that is what I have been doing since 1983. I think that is what Fini was saying to do. Later Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groomlakearea51 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Stray: Welcome to the Forum; can you post a picture (or let us know the serial number) so we can determine if it's the terminals on the cup that are missing. There are some ways to "fix" that issue, but we need to know if it's "cups" or a small black terminal "block" on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straycat Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 It is the black terminal block type. I have found 4 little nut's that seem to be the rite size and working. The #ber's are 145582 and 145583 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The #ber's are 145582 and 145583 My guess is the 1st "5" is really an "S". That would make them 1978 vintage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groomlakearea51 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 That would be the case. Stray, look at this for more info on your Cornwalls: http://forums.klipsch.com/forums/t/103886.aspx Nice new terminal blocks (with screws... [H]) are about $1 or 2 from parts express, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
