The Dude Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 So the round ones are alnico and the squares are not right. My question is can I use a round style alnico one in place of a square one. thanks Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Sure, it will make sound. If you expect it to image well they need to be matched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyrc Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 If you already have them, try them. See if you have wandering soloist. They may have slightly different frequency curves, and be of audibly different efficiency. Even two samples of the same model may vary ... Klipsch tested them when they were new to make sure they were O.K., but also attempted to match them in stereo pairs, since there were variations. Several people have said that their round magnets did not have the high frequency extension that the flat magnets do, but I have 4 flat magnets and two old round magnets, and my particular round magnets are every bit as good -- in fact 16K signals can be heard from directly behind them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
