W27 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 These are a few hours from me. I’d take them on but the possibly bad woofer kills the deal. Maybe a loose dust cover, but as far as I know replacements are a needle in a haystack. I’ve always wanted to try the Epic C3 or C4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchman12001 Posted September 16, 2020 Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 I was thinking the same thing with the woofer. The pair I had, the guy told me the woofer sounded blown, the dust cap came loose and rattled. Even if the one woofer is blown, you could make close to $1000 just parting them out since the parts are so rare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 That rattling sound is more than likely just a loose dust cap, which just needs to be re-glued. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iteachstem Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I recently did a full refurbish on a pair of CF-3's. They started out black, ended up much better! However, one off the woofers needed the dustcap re-glued. (The famous Klipsch buzz) It was a lot of work, and I'm glad I did it, but would I do another one? Hell no! Not unless I replaced all 4 woofers, but at that point, you're spending over $500 and that would be better spend towards better speakers that aren't decades old and difficult to finds parts!

I had all of the parts( tweeters,horns, 4 woofers and crossovers) listed for $750 a while back and not one hit. I pulled everything and re-glued the center-cap. I decided to see if it would make sense to part it out and put better drivers in the cabinet, but that seemed like too much work at the time, so, I refinished the cabinets and loaded them back up! I ended up selling the pair for $750. (Perfect cabinets and badges, very good grills, extra bracing, sound dampening and all stock drivers...still only $750.
