The History Kid Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 It may be easier to track down a pair of RF-3's complete - and cheaper. The drivers if able to be had, go on eBay for about $55 + shipping. RF-3's tend to go at $250 and are more readily available. It's a shame that Klipsch doesn't offer them anymore. I don't believe any of the current drivers will match up in any decent capacity. The speakers that used these drivers btw are as follows: RC-7, RF-3, 3 II, 5, 5 Classic, and RS-7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moray james Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 you can buy a set of four new replacement woofers from Speaker Exchange I would bet that you can sell your remaining original three good woofers to cover the cost of four new. That's what I would do. My rational is that if you took one woofer out you may well have done harm to the remaining woofers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The History Kid Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I would either contact Met, or get four replacement drivers as shown there. It looks like the RF-35 drivers will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Looks like the newer driver but should WORK. I don't think the ones with the black center are available anymore. They used them in the RF-3 and RF-3 II also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
