kg4guy Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Anyone know the corner radius of the commercial cabinets I have a 1/4" roundover bit but it looks like Klipsch used a 1/2' ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedcrankcammer Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Anyone know the corner radius of the commercial cabinets I have a 1/4" roundover bit but it looks like Klipsch used a 1/2' ? What are you building?? Klipsch only did the round over on the Pro-Theatre stuff, not the KP or Klipsch Pro Stuff, which usually brings a better price.

kg4guy Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 The LSI non trim had a radius on it correct ? I just went and got a 1/4" roundover router bit and experimented on the top I am giving away in the Garage Sale section and it looks smaller than the radius on my KP-250's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kg4guy Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 This is the dog house I built for the single LSI I am building to match the single I have with the LS-BB top on it I will cut the sides and tops tomorrow as I finished the LSI splits love them. I am going to start building the commercial cabinets as everyone builds the home versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybobg Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I'll lay my bits up against mine tonight if you'ld like. My memory is always foggy on stuff like this, but I think its 3/4". Then again, that may have been what they ended up after being knocked around and sanded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Most commercial stuff has a 3/8" round-over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybobg Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I agree with the 3/8" radius. I matched up a bit, but then there was no marking on it[:^)] I believe it was my 3/8" bit. If it doesn't work out, you can always make it larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kg4guy Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Almost finished building my first commercial LSI just waiting for the handles and the Klipsch stencil I'm having made to match the white 1" letters on my other LSI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybobg Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Are you searching for Klipsch handles or using generic? Just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kg4guy Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 No just Parts Express handles they look the same but no Klipsch logo on the handles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kg4guy Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 It came out nicer than I expected I am just waiting for the Klipsch stencil I am having made to paint the logo on and then I will put the aluminum trim on all the corners only as that is what I did with my split LSI's so they all match and I'm taking out the type A crossovers and putting ALK Jr's in. both pairs.

kg4guy Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 First ALk Jr. done wow Hovlands, Mundorfs Dayton with Clarity Cap ESAs its late so I can't turn it up to loud so tomorrow I will see so far even at low volume the difference between the A and ALK Jr's is cleaner.

thackmate Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Klipsch and Klipsch Pro did the round over on all pro product with exception to oak OO, walnut WO or finished black FB product. (These were essentially home product with high powered woofers, input/crossovers etc such as Heresy, Cornwall and La Scallywags) The "B" suffix designated that the cabinet had rounded over corners and edges, painted in the tough, speckled black paint. The "A" suffix versions were the same but trimmed and had handles and of course the "C" versions had round over edges and carpeted. Cabinets were built then sent to the sanding booth to get rounded over and nail holes and corner breakouts etc were filled with bondo. They were then finish sanded and moved to the paint line, allowed to dry and sent to final assembly I believe that the radius was 1/2" but it may have been 7/16. Off the shelf ABS corners actually had a slightly larger radius than what we were using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
