geoff. Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I have tried the titanium MIDRANGE diaphragms in my Forte ii’s, and Cornwall ii’s with the K-61 mids. The Cornwall ii’s already had Bob’s bandpasses and CW2 crossovers as I knew down the road I would have to see for myself what it sounds like. The Forte ii’s don’t have the bandpass but they cross higher to begin with. In both cases the result was similar. Up to a certain volume level, say “spirited levels”, the midrange was crisper, more detailed. Pleasantly present. Better imaging too. Once pushed they became unpleasant, to my ears. I do not doubt that with a redesigned passive crossover, or an active they would be an improvement. Crossed even lower to the tweeter, like most Klipsch three ways are now... But as they stand right now, I prefer the phenolic mids. I should also mention both the Forte ii’s and Cornwall ii’s have titanium tweeter diaphragms so there would be even more disparity without those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kink56 Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 Yep, it is so difficult relying on other's experiences because no matter what one's individual situation is unique. Glad I tried it, glad I returned the midrange to stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
