jimjimbo Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 If you pop off the input panel (6 small screws) you would be able to see most of the interior components and perhaps provide additional information to promote your sale. Would be nice to see if anyone has changed out components or modded the crossover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Broken terminal should be an easy and cheap fix. Wish you were closer, I'd love to give these a little love. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Just now, jimjimbo said: Did you have a chance to do this? Yes. So, I removed the screws on the input panel and gave it a SOLID tug and tried prying using car panel removal tools (plastic). Little sucker won't budge easily. I would rather not damage anything just trying to get a look inside. Anyone that is serious about the pair is more than welcome to come and do so yourself. Shipping I am guessing would be a deal breaker anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Yep, sometimes they can be tough to pop off, although I think not nearly as bad as an old La Scala doghouse panel.....yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I somehow manage pop them out and snap photos of all drivers inside, is anyone interested in purchasing as a result? I thought given the price these would move....

I broke one of my favorite scrapers, that I've had for decades, about a week ago trying to get one loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, had I kept going, I would have snapped mine as well. I can easily get the panel off, it's just doing it the right way without damaging anything.... You sure Klipsch doesn't seal these with epoxy and resin from the factory 😂? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I broke mine on an LSI dog house cover. Bummed me out as I had that tool for decades and liked it. I eventually got it off but it was a chore. I think their foam tape turns into super glue after 20+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured it had some kind of gasket that turned to adhesive given time. When I opened my khorn bass cab in the past, the cracking sound that the wood made got my attention. Thought I broke the wood in half. Took a metal prybar and lots of patience to get it done. Oh what fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave A Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I don't think it was foam tape they used on the industrial speakers. You really have to work side to side to get those suckers loose. Those old boxes sound really nice with recapping and new, ahem, tweeters in them. Plus you can use them for advanced level weight lifting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
