mustangerfourlife Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Ok i am not a audio tech person but here is what i was wondering? Being i like the way my Hersey's sound in the mid and highs and i like the bass of my Quartets...Can i put the mid and highs in my Quartets being the are both 3 way speakers.I know i would have to do a little tweaking for the mid to fit in the Quartets but other than that can it be done? Also what crossover should i use.What are your thoughts on this am i missing something.I would also like to be able to put both sets back to original if need be.

willland Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 You know what I would do, I would go get this pair asap. http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/ele/5331688850.html Crazy price and they would perfectly fill the bottom end with tight, fast, accurate bass. If they were here in Kissimmee I would have already scooped them up. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Oh, I guess you could franken-mod the two together somehow. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Heresys were designed to be placed on the floor. They will lack bass if not on the floor. Try that first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the offer but I would have to get that approved by my bride first. I'll get back with you. I take it you sold the KLF-30's?

wvu80 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) Mustanger, I like to tinker and mod my speakers, just as you say, but I think you would be 10 times ahead to try a sub or two first.

mustangerfourlife Posted December 24, 2015 Author Share Posted December 24, 2015 Will, I didn't sell the KLF 30s they are chillin in the other bedroom not being used at the moment till i figure out what i want to do with them. Mustanger, I like to tinker and mod my speakers, just as you say, but I think you would be 10 times ahead to try a sub or two first. As far as adding a sub i have my 5.1 with my Epik dual 15 sub and my 2 channel setup in the same room and therefore dont really have the room for another sub let alone 2.Plus the wife factor i think she would flip.I like the bass from the Quartets its the mids and highs that i want from in the herseys .

Ah, gotcha. As long as you've heard subs, you know what you're getting. I went a long time without a sub, but now I'm a believer and would recommend a sub of some size to go with almost any standard speaker.

Goal: The bass repsonse of Quartets with the mid/high character of Heresys. Path of least resistance to achieving the goal: Sell the Quartets and Heresys. Use the money to buy Cornwalls. Done. Four people are happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustangerfourlife Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Well i just stacked the herseys on top of the quartets and hooked them both up to my 2245 and pretty much got what i wanted to accomplish without going nuts.I must say they sound pretty nice together.gotta love the simple fixes in life.
