bhendrix Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) What are the drivers in the 904LF? 2 - K-45-EP. 8 ohms each, wired in parallel. Edited July 28, 2014 by bhendrix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Do these stock xovers have the HF boost for firing through a screen? I think they do but can't confirm this. I run them behind a screen so not sure if its good they do or if they would be better without. Do you have anything like Audyssey or some other equalization tool in your system? If so, it would be able to compensate either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very smooth speakers. Edited July 29, 2014 by reference_head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taterworks Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Interesting to see that the compression drivers are B&C Speakers units, and not custom-branded Klipsch units. Not that it's a bad thing - the B&C compression drivers are recognized among designers as very good drivers. Also the LF drivers look like Eminence-made units, built in Kentucky, USA. I remember when I once installed some Community iBOX pro cabinets, they were using Beyma 1.4" HF drivers with a ferrite magnet that had to be 8" diameter all by itself. Those were some phenomenal sounding drivers on the Community fiberglass horns, but I'll bet they'd also be superb with the Klipsch horns. Not that you'd want to mess with a good thing, but if new optimized crossovers could be built I'll bet it would be an incredible HF driver choice.

Heritage_Head Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 With the grills they look like really big cornwalls with the 510 on top. I like it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derrickdj1 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The grills dress the speakers up nicely. Jason's is in my neck of the woods, so I will keep him in mind for future projects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage_Head Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 I finally took some pics and got the color right. Before blacks were gray and the color was dull. But now I have water spots lol instead. I cleaned the lens so not sure why. Any one know what cause those spots when taking a pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang guy Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I am restoring some 904's, and I think I may move the speaker inputs to the top or back of the speakers. I'm sure Klipsch has it's reasons for making them on the sides. The grilles Jason made inspired me. Big Cornwalls don't have wires coming in on the sides, and if I'm not going to hide these behind a screen, looks will matter. Great looking 904's. Definitely the best I have seen! Kudos to both of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to both of you! Thanks, They put it on the side so hook up is easyer behind the screen. More space on the side then behind is what I was told. I ordered some cable dressing that I think/hope will look pretty nice coming down to the terminals . I will post a pic when I get it. Its black with some blue like the room. Thanks to Jason these are some very cool looking 904s Edited August 14, 2014 by reference_head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappydue Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 where the hell are the used 904's coming from? I've never seen a set for sale...lol you gotta know people who know people lol. I think I started the trend lately of the 904's. Seems a very large amount of them were purchased years back. And now they are trickling to new owners such as me and plissken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
