I have no problem doing this myself. your best option is to buy klipsch original capacitors , this would restore the klipsch sound , anything else will sound very different , the klipsch Crossover repair Center for the USA sell upgrade kits for your crossovers : @JEM Performance JEM Performance Audio (412) 401-6915 Email theaudioroom@verizon.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are listed as 16ohm but always measure just under 12 ohm, 11.8 or so is normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious. Yes, modifying the network will change the sound -- that's the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dare you question Klipsch engineers, how dare you!! Every room and amplifier sound exactly the same and everyone has the same taste and preferences so stock Klipsch sound is what's always best! Do we need to turn you in for spreading misinformation? What are you up to, 70 cents now? If the Chief sees this you may end up back down to 50.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deang Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 You modified your post. It didn’t come off as funny. Anyway, I said “not everyone”. Some people like them the way they are. Some do not. That’s just the harsh reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

consistent Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 The B3 has been given a 'facelift' by a few...in the tweeter circuit from memory found somewhere in the forum B3 network.docx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
consistent Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 When I look at this network again it really is an interesting piece of work. Looks like they use LWR 2nd order to cross the woofer at around 320hz and at the top end a 2nd order Cheyby at around 6400hz. Not sure about the mid...got me stumped!!

mboxler Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 10 hours ago, consistent said: Not sure about the mid...got me stumped!! It is an interesting circuit, as the 11.4mh inductance between taps 0-3 must have been too high to get the desired transfer function. The 2.5mh inductor is in parallel with the 5.8mh inductance between taps 0-2. That equates to around 1.75mh. That inductance, coupled with the windings between taps 2-3, equates to around 3.5mh. Oddly enough, I believe a 5mh inductor across taps 0-3 (11.4mh) would have worked as well, as that parallel combination also equates to around 3.5mh.

consistent Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 maybe they had some spares lying about to make it fit the need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
