JRH Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 16 ohms is irrelevant. Advertising ratings have changed over the years. The K-horn used to be rated at 16 ohms, but it had a 4 ohm DCR woofer even then. If the caps are not leaking oil, they are likely fine. I'd run them as they are, but have a little discretion on the volume control! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have another set of heresy ii speakers and I gotta say in my opinion the model h's (1961) sound way crisper and just produce better all around sound. I am using the heresy ii set now and just listening to the older ones every once in a while on conservative volume.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, the K-1000-5000 was standard issue for early Heresy, Shorthorn and Cornwall models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
