mjjr1956 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 This is what I have found..... Have to decide what to sell....pair of Belles or Horns w/ Crites mods..Have 2 sets of Belles..one original, other w/ Crites Mods (Keeping these) . Had Klipschorns in corners, with Bob Crites Crossovers and tweeters...Decided to pull them out, replace with Belles with original AL crossers , original tweeters.. At first, I set belles in corners, not flat against wall..Was disappointed..They sounded no where near as good as my Horns..So, I hooked up my other set of Belles, w/ Crites crossovers and tweeters, also in corners away from wall...Again..Disappointed. So pushed the Belles against the wall...then I was happy...Much better... My next move was to hook up one with Crites Mods, and one original...faded from one to the other... My discovery was.. 1. Belles should be against the wall.. 2.Bob Crites Crossovers and Tweeters made a lot of difference..So much cleaner , but some brighter..had to cut treble, add bass..The sound was great..the originals were muddy and not clean sounding..Probably old crossovers.. So my summery was...Keep the Belles...add Crites Mods to other set..so they match.. Just wanted to share this info with ya'll... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Sounds to me he likes the Belles with the Crites upgrades such as new caps or crossovers, and new Crite tweeters. Sounds good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I read your post 3 times and could not figure out what happened to the Khorns. I think the OP meant to reply to the following topic and hit "new post" instead. http://forums.klipsch.com/forums/p/166081/1779606.aspx#1779606 If I had 4 Belle's and a pair of Khorns I'd keep em all, I have it the other way with 4 Khorns and 2 Belle's. So when I had to make a decision, I bought another pair of Khorn bass bins because they were available for the right money (smile). Leave the Khorns in the corner and place the Belle's in front, the khorns will almost disappear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
