littlejackhorner Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Hi all, I have those orig klipsch AA crossover whose longer form factor (from Klipschorn?) that doesn't fit my La Scala (the long side of the board can't face outward due to it being too long). Has anyone McGuyvered a way to reconfigure the least number of components and shorten the board to fit the La Scala? I've already replaced the oil cans with audyn caps so that real estate has been opened up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Uh, slide it in sideways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlejackhorner Posted August 11, 2019 Author Share Posted August 11, 2019 Hi dean, yes that is how I currently have it. It just bothers me enough to want to rejigger it!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 If you cut the board, you will forever disturb the signal frequency pathways that were so closely designed and tested by decades of Klipsch engineers..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codewritinfool Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Just slide it in sideways. I wouldn’t attempt to reconfigure anything. How often are you looking back there anyway? Nothing to adjust. Furthermore, I don’t understand how it won’t fit the normal way anyway. Maybe you could post some photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Without photos, I too have a problem conceptualizing the issue. It seems that sliding it so that length is perpendicular to the front should work. What about upside down to the underside of the top? That’s how I mounted the AAs in La Scalas after the networks interfered with the port tubes in a djk bass mod. The attached photos don’t show the network actually attached to the underside of the top, but you can see where the positions of the tubes would prevent returning them to the original locations.

littlejackhorner Posted August 12, 2019 Author Share Posted August 12, 2019 Yes - they are positioned with the length perpendicular to the front. I will post a photo of why i can't wedge it in the other way to be able to see the metal signage to face the back after getting past the 2MB photo trim... I see given y'all responses, that I probably need to just lighten up, and enjoy! I think part of the frustration is I see the backs of my La Scalas every day, as they are placed in the middle of the room (due to the logistics of my space. ) Cheers!
