JonMustang Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I posted a while back about a looking for a good center channel for a couple KG4s. Good replies in there, but most people said that a third KG4 was the best center of all. In my challenging room, I find that there's a dead-spot in the center and so vocals sound wide and poorly-defined. A third KG4 would just be too awkward in the room, so I'm wondering if I could just wire up the horn from a KG4 to tighten up the soundstage. With a custom crossover, would I be getting much out of a center horn, like vocal detail and better imaging? Or are horn tweeters only producing very high frequencies, like the crispness of cymbals and such? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 You need to cover the entire frequency range. Get a KG4 cabinet and make two sections out of it or just get a KG 2.2 center channel and be done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter P. Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Get yourself a single kg .5, 1.5, 1.2, or whatever, and you're good. You could try buying a just a horn and building a cheap high-pass filter. I don't think cabinet size will be critical. There are web sites that will show you how. I built a simple second-order high-pass filter for some satellite speakers using info found online and it worked fine. Sounds like it would be a fun experiment. If you pull it off, don't forget to post your pride and joy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason str Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 KG-2 would be my second choice after another KG-4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
