wvu80 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 We may need Chief Bonehead himself to sort this out, Moray. I have seen that XO number all over the place at 1000, 1400, 1500 and 1600 but as you said, something closer to a triple digit XO point makes infinitely more sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 The cut off will also have to do with the growth rate. I believe the KLF horns are 703 indicating a 700hz cut off. What is the number for the CF3/4 horn? That number should indicate cutoff. I never heard that, but it makes perfect sense. Edit: I lied, I did indeed see that before, but I forgot. Mr. djk said in a separate post that the 703 was in the KLF's as you said, and he said it was also used in the CF-2, crossed as low a 700, just as you said. I'm not sure I ever saw a model number like that on my CF-4 horns, but I wasn't really looking. I'll so some research and see if I can find a model number referenced somewhere. The horn is referred to by Klipsch as a 90(o) x 60(o) Tractrix® Horn. The horn used in the KLF20/30 as a mid horn (K703) is actually a wide band horn and is used as a tweeter in the pro line up remember the wider the bandwidth of a horn the better the horn design. The horn in the CF2 is in the essentially the same horn but with a different mount for a one inch tweeter driver ths same used in a K79 tweeter. So as I have mentioned in the past a CF2 horn would make an excellent tweeter for a KLF20/30. I would build a new baffle with the tweeter just above the woofers and the mid horn up on top above the tweeter. In this way you have a loudspeaker (three way) where the dispersion and polar patterns match exactly at crossover between the mid and the hi.

wvu80 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) Just an update Moray, I put my K-63-KN drivers on Craigslist. http://parkersburg.craigslist.org/ele/5192619968.html I did it so your horns would get noticed in a national CL search, which I cross referenced to your Klipsch Garage Sale ad. I also wanted to experiment a bit on how well SearchTempest works. My ad was not even picked up by SearchTempest for two days. When it did, it found all the major key words, Klipsch, CF-3, CF-4 (I wasn't sure if it would pick up such short 4 digit words). I wondered about your ad because you listed the horn as fitting the CF-3/4, and I wasn't sure a search engine would find that particular combination. If anyone searches now, they should find my CL listing for the CD's, and by extension, your horns. Edited September 4, 2015 by wvu80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 Thanks for you most kind help. Perhaps someone will buy both horns and drivers and build a first class system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I just completed a national search on "Klipsch CF-4" and it returned my CL listing and another listing in Tampa Bay. That got me to thinking about your FS ad, Moray. Do you have other CF-4 parts for sale? I could probably use a pair of grills, but I like the look of the CF-4's naked.

seeingstraight Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Do you still have the horns, I noticed another guy looking for one and I'd certainly take the other or the pair if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
