SilverSport Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I got a pair of Titanium tweeter diaphragms for my recently returnedKlipsch kg2s today...arrived quickly after ordering and perfectlypacked...I took the kg2s down and had minor problems with the tweeter removalbut after removing the rear passives, the pushed right out with minimaleffort...Since my needle nose pliers are over at the GF's, I pressed a pair ofscissors into service to remove the three nuts (only two on Quartet, KG5.5s and Chorus tweeters I have done this upgrade to in thepast)...further, the kg2s have no protection across the front so bemindful when installing the Titanium diaphragms...don't want to damagethem...Tighten everything back up and place the kg2s (for now) atop myQuartets...hook the speakers up and attach to my 100wpc Outlaw AudioRR2150 stereo receiver...double check everything and then place someJohn Mayer into the Cambridge Audio Azur 640c V2......Ahhhhh...sounds nice...they'll never replace Heritage for me(Klipschorns, Chorus II, Quartets or Heresys) but I really like theselittle kg2s...better than I liked my Reference RB-5s which I know werea better spec'd and voiced speaker...perhaps it's because these were myfirst new Klipsch back in 1989/1990 or perhaps I just prefer thisoverall Heritage/Extended Heritage sound...I believe this is a huge bang for the buck upgrade to any Klipschspeaker that can take advantage of it...Bob and Michael Crites (BECon this forum) sell a quality product for a fair price that is easyenough so that even I can install it...and it seems to yield excellentresults...for my ears...extending the highs and cleaning up a littleharshness I never knew was there except in comparison to betterspeakers...Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RT FAN Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I recently upgraded to TiDi for my Chorus II's and agree that it was a worthwhile investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivernuggets Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Pardon a slight hijack here. I'm thinking of doing this upgrade to my Forte IIs. I understand they have titanium drivers for tweeters, but do Bob & Michael sell replacement midrange drivers? Should I be thinking of upgrading the squawker along with the tweeter?

No titanium midrange diaphragm yet. Two attempts so far have resulted in dismal failure. We do have a very nice phenolic diaphragm now for those.
