Fattner Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Question : I was boxing up my La Scals to move them and I noticed that I pair the top with the bottoms with the same last two numbers as per the Kilpsch factory tag on the back of each speaker....ok but I see on the factory boxes they came in the lable states you mix up the numbers example 03 top match with 04 bottom ...does this sonically matter or is it a cosmetic thing ??

Moderators dtel Posted August 29, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 29, 2020 I would think cosmetic, probably the order they are cut out and how to make them match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fattner Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Ok I will call klipsch on Monday and ask why the boxes say one thing for a tops/bottoms match and back of speakers give a different top/bottom match 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted August 30, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2020 Good idea, which way does the wood pattern match up best ? Top to the bottom on each speaker and they both should be somewhat similar with conesetuctive serial numbers. I would think all the drivers could be swapped around and it would make no difference, it's all the same drivers for each one made, this is what made me think it is cosmetic.

Islander Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 According to the instructions that came with my La Scala IIs, the numbers on the speakers are what you go by when matching tops and bottoms. It says that they are matched acoustically, not just cosmetically. Perhaps yours got mixed up when they were being packed, and since the pair were going out together, they thought it would make no difference, because the relevant numbers are on the speakers. I’d still call Klipsch to confirm this, if only for your own peace of mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
