mustang guy Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 If you have a K-55M you are willing to part with, I am your man. I will be replacing a perfectly good K-55V that is in the center of two LS with K-55M's I just want things to match up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skelt Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Have you considered the new A-55G from Bob C.? There was a thread about it called "Driver X" about a month ago but it has since disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Thanks, but I would have to buy 3 of them to do what I want. I want my squawkers of my LCR to be the same. Currently the L and R are M series, and the center is a V series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to swap Mark (Zeus) out. The K55'M's are selling on Ebay for about $80 plus shipping if anybody wants to turn them into $$$'s. :).

mustang guy Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 I got the K55-M's and I am glad, at least in my center front speaker, that I made the swap. I never realized the K55-V was the reason for the timbre mismatch between the left and right with K55-M's. I always thought it was something being done in the preamp. Now when I do the level calibration, the center sounds the same as the left and right. For those of you who have matching front LCR be sure that your drivers match! Lesson learned! Thank you Mark. Sorry that FedEx is taking an extra day getting yours to you. In this case the USPS wins over FedEx. That isn't usually the case... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess matching the drivers isn't so crazy after all Doc? LOL Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 I didn't expect such a change matching that center. Thanks to Dave (wvu80) for bringing it to my attention. I wouldn't say the M sounds better than the V, since I had been using the V as a center between 2 M's for a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
