I own a lot of Klipsch speakers and almost all of them have been modified and I still consider them Klipsch, not knocking anything anyone has done here in the DIY realm but when Klipsch makes a move like this I see it as a big deal I just hope enough of the new Cornwall IV sell that I may be able to pick them up fairly easily in the used market a couple of years or so from now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Still have yet to see a photo of the rear port of the H4. I think it's a hoax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was ported to have a higher sensitivity rating; not to go lower. HIP and 250 were about 101 sensitivity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hersey mid horn does not need mumps. It’s not cosmetic. It’s functional. Depending on the acoustic parameters of the horn, it either needs them or doesn’t. The tweeter horn does not need them either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 and is there any acoustic "stuffing" inside them? You know, kinda like a turkey? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 and is that an active port, or a passive port? Please @Chief bonehead gives us the straight skinny....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
