pl_svn Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Hi from a newcomer question: does the woofer in this picture look to be the original or...? (cast natural aluminium "frame" doesn't looks instead as the bob crites k-33 replacement?) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 The "WOOFER: K-33-E 15" (38.1cm) Fiber composite cone" is a stamped frame woofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pl_svn Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 ... so those in the picture are not the originals? looks cast, not stamped aluminium also... in all Cornwall's pictures I can find the frame is black, not natural aluminium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I see black stamped frames.....the frames are thin metal that immediately touch the front boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pl_svn Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 ok, thanks I was calling "frame" the outer "ring" where the screws are and had only seen it black (in pictures on the net: pretty hard to see a real Cornwall here in Italy) so... ok: saturday those babies will be here and make my Fi X 2A3 (and me) very, very happy ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 ok, thanks I was calling "frame" the outer "ring" where the screws are and had only seen it black (in pictures on the net: pretty hard to see a real Cornwall here in Italy) so... ok: saturday those babies will be here and make my Fi X 2A3 (and me) very, very happy ;-) Also visible is the gasket (looks like a lighter gray), for when the same woofer is mounted from the rear.You should like these, and the 2A3 amps should be nice with these. Not a super loud levels, but they should work nicely. I have 2A3 amps on my LaScalas, and love them. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a super loud levels, but they should work nicely ... this is what I'm really curious about: with the 97db RB-81 II I currently have, I almost never need to turn the volume all the way up so... 5db more should mean I will never need to turn the volume 1/2 way up, right? ;-) (and the single ended kt88s 14W/ch ampli I still use sometimes... makes, with RB-81s, this 4x8mt room's walls literally shake a little before reaching 1/2 volume up =:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
