wuzzzer Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I put titanium diaphragms in several of my previous Klipsch speakers and liked the results. Are there similar modifications that can be done to the pair of 1981 Heresys that I have? I know there's options that Crites carries but I don't know which, if any, would be considered better than OEM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there similar modifications that can be done to the pair of 1981 Heresys the K77-K55 dont have any titanium options - you would have to change the mids-highs section with the K53 which has a titanium diaphragm option , as well as the K76 - the crossover of the H1 would needed to be modded to the last E version which is compatible with the K53/k76 --------- -but you can also do a Super Heresy ala Claude , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are the CT-120s different than the CT-125s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are the CT-120s different than the CT-125s? Nothing "laid back" in the CT-120 at all. The CT-125 has about 3 db less output.......hence the laid back comment on your part.

It's a different diaphragm material and a smaller body. Also, there is now a DE-111 I have not tested, which looks a little smoother than the 110, but I have not curved it, nor do I care to do so.
