THXAUDIO Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Can someone send me a schematic or picture of how to wire the 4 K-55-V drivers on a block for the K-4 manifold? Much appreciated if you can. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djk Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Looks like series-parallel wired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 looks like only one autoformer so series parallel makes sense. I would use a bigger autoformer......4 k-55's is 160watts of driver and the T2A is probally only good for 25 watts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THXAUDIO Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm experimenting with a mod LaScala for a center channel speaker using a crites tweeter and sub with the K-260 horn and a modified crossover from crites as well on a modified type B crossover for the K-260 but with only one K-55 driver so need to change the crossover again since adding the 4 K-55's?

Guest " " Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 From a crossover perspective the impedance of a single k-55 and 4 in a series parallel arrangement is the same. The only question I would ask Bob would be a senerio question.......if he built you a crossover for 1 driver at 300hz and later you make this a 4 driver arrangement....how much power can the autoformer he provided handle at 300hz? For home use, it should be OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THXAUDIO Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 I will do that, thanks for your help and yes it's for home use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 "T2A is probally only good for 25 watts." It's as big as a 25W 70V line transformer with bandwidth down to 40hz, it should handle at least 10dB higher than that above 400hz. The most I have ever used on a T2A transformer in a Klipsch speaker was a 900W amplifier, and it was the woofer that sounded scared (not the midrange driver).
