ATLAudio Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 The cat basically tore these a new one. What options do I have for total replacement? I've seen repair kits for other brands, but not Klipsch KD-12 PRs, also Dayton Audio has one, but the screw pattern looks different. All that said, I'll be damned if I can hear a difference, is that typical? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glens Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 No photos? If you can't hear a difference from before, I take it the cabinet seal is intact and the damage is only cosmetic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLAudio Posted August 11, 2019 Author Share Posted August 11, 2019 there’s ripped holes in the PR the size of a dime. What the best repair or air or replacement option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I might find some fabric patches that are maybe semi-porous, and cut however many holes you have, if the size of a dime, then round pie es the size of a quarter and glue with adhesive will create a new Bond, and let dry completely before checking your handiwork. Sometimes simple yet creative appoach is called for... enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glens Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Many ways to patch paper, not so many for surround rubber (if that's what it is). Though patches will affect the moving mass of the assembly, maybe too much. I'd call Klipsch and see what they recommend. Perhaps they can whip up a new pair (so matching) for you. Maybe it was time for new speakers, and less cats, anyway :^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
