1953 Klipsch Rebel Desecration

I saw it too ... he's selling the Trusonic 15" woofer that was in it on a separate ad.

As sad as it is, it looked in rough shape --- and I think I remember a post by Tom Brennan saying that it wasn't that great sounding. Of course I could be confusing it with a different model. The bass "vents" in the back look awfully narrow.

I emailed Edwardre to ask him if crossover mods were necessary to run in the Belle as a replacement woofer. He told me on the side six months ago that it really matched the Khorn's bass intensity in his Belle, and I'm thinking (I call it!) about popping it in my center Belle.

Any thoughts?

TBrennan...

Yep, yer right...I heard him say that myself a few times...LOL! ....overheard coming from PWK when an employee brought in an old beat-up Rebel to try to restore: "Why do you want an old Rebel when you work here and can get a new pair of GOOD speakers inexpensively?"....LOL!
