For Sales is an used pair of Cornwall II crossovers from Bob Cites.  These are the Klipsch Crossovers that were sent to Bob Crites and renewed with updated components.

A new pair of crossovers is $275 plus shipping. 

I'll sell these for $125 shipped to the upper 48.

The crossovers listed here are exactly what came in my ‘87 Cornwall 2s, minus the definite capacitor upgrade.

 

I remember bursting out laughing while reading in here where another member referred to them as looking like they were assembled by Playskool. 

 

I think later years of the CW2 lost the breadboard and went with the terminal cup mounting when they went from round to square.

What’s the difference between CW I and CW II crossovers   

 

There were 3 different schematics for Cornwall 1 crossovers, B-1, B-2,  and B-3.

 

There was only one schematic for the Cornwall 2. 

 

In both the Cornwall 1 and Cornwall 2 the crossover points are 600 and 6000 hz.

 

B-1 was a gentle slope, old school. B-2 was steeper slopes. B-3 was for the transition from the K-55 mid to the K-57, but still using the K-77 tweeter prior to the release of the Cornwall 2 with the K-79 tweeter. 

 

The differences would be the amount of attenuation to the respective midrange and tweeter drivers to balance them with the K-33 woofer. K-57 is hotter than a  K-55 and K-77 is hotter than a K-79, from what I have read here.

 

I have owned Cornwall 1s with the B-3 and Cornwall 2s and despite the change of tweeters found them far more similar than different.
