t-man Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 After much thought and consideration, I have finally assembled my KLF 20s and put them in service during the past several days. I'm very satisfied. I gutted them and had a wood working friend of mine glue in 1x1 strips from top to bottom in all 4 corners to seal up the seams. It is very solid now. I even cut up some wood to install some internal bracing, but after trying to figure out where to put it all decided to just leave it as it was stock. I had Crites rebuild my crossovers, and when the Ti diaphragms are available again, I will use those as well. The speakers are in place and sound really good. I can't make them resonate and I carefully adjusted the feet/spikes to balance on my carpet covered concrete floor. They are very stable and aren't moving at all during loud bassy music. I'd say they are good, and am satisfied that I did enough to improve them without overbuilding them. As for Bob Crites, I am very pleased with the turnaround and professionalism of his business. Quick and detailed responses to all my emails, and he was super fast to get them back to me. I look forward to trying the Ti Diaphragms in the 20s and my C7 when they become available again.

t-man Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm saving these for some day when I get bored and need to tinker with these speakers some more. I think I'll be keeping them for a LONG LONG time. They are really a nice speaker. Great 3 way sound with modern styling at a great price.

Klipschtastic Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hey t-man did you just glue the 1x1s in the inside thefront and rear baffles or were some of them loose and you removed them first? I am in the process of fixing a loose rear baffle and not sure whether I should glue some 1x1s inside the front one too or wait and see if it rattles.

t-man Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 All the baffles had issues with adhesion - hence the repair. They still work just fine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
