1HOHDude Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 A couple of year ago I replaced the drivers in a RC 3 and installed a Crites Titanium diaphragm. Result is a really good, CHEAP center speaker. I have matched it to my RF 82ii and now to a new set of Klipsch Energy speakers. I think your efforts to keep this speaker are well directed.

Did this improve voices? It seemed like when I had my RC-3 with my RF-3s the C would get walked on unless I maxed the gain on the amp for it.

1HOHDude Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Not sure,,,, I have a multi channel amp with each amp tuned separately. Looking at my amp settings it does look like I have about +3 db extra gain on the center. But... the RC-52 also needed extra db. Seems like I had it at +5 but have lost the settings. I also thought the Crites diaphragms helped the timbre match up with the 82s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1HOHDude Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I note that with my Energy speakers I actually have the gain for the RF 3s down about -4 db since the Energy speakers have a lower loudness rating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The History Kid Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I was curious since that was one of the reasons I upgraded to the RC-7. The 3 would just get overrun by the towers, and the same was true with the 52. I wonder if it would help timbre of the 3 with the Heresy 1's...
