mrw Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Moved recently and had a few things broken. I need the rear port and a new grille for my floorstanding RF-3. I'm also in need of an amp for my KSW12. Does Klipsch sell parts to end users? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
001 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 those are older speakers & klipsch probably doesnt have any of the parts you mentioned. best bet it to look for used parts on ebay or post a wanted ad in the garage sale section. & sorry to hear about your sub amp, far too common on klipsch subs, there is a member here that does repairs to these amps for a good price, @ngen33r has a thread in the tech section. & welcome to the forum!

001 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 i agree its good to check, just saying on many of these older models they do not carry most parts... & definitely not anywhere near 99.99%! they dont have any parts for older models like the KG series woofers or ports or grilles, same for the older RF line & many other models. tweeter & mid diaphrams etc yes, grilles & similar parts, most likely not. but by all means please check & let us know.

Alexander Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Virtually all of the KLF and as I understand the same for the CF lines parts are no longer available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO1 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 klipsch parts sell parts for all the current klipsch speakers including the Heritage line , no one is talking about older speakers that were phased out except if some parts are carried over -----K33-K48-K55- etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @mrw try to get in contact with Klipsch parts , klipsch Parts would be the 1st step for you , to inquire whether the parts you need are in Stock or not - Remember that klipsch Dealers may still have some or all of these parts even if they are discontinued -ask Klipsch to verify whether they can search the database and refer you to a Klipsch Dealer -------Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
001 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Just an update to this thread regarding RF parts & other speakers of this era... i just got a reply from klipsch cust service on a message i sent 2.5 months ago asking about these parts for the OP & just as i thought & stated replying to randy ------- they do NOT carry or sell any parts for the RF series speakers nor do they have K48-e woofers. they actually referred me to simply speakers for repair/recone of older woofers like these. so much for the 99.99% thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL! i'm not making it up.... just updating for the OP in case he didnt get a chance to ask or hasn't got a reply yet. & just to be clear here, this thread is about RF parts & a KSW12 sub amp the OP asked about, a k33e woofer is unrelated to the thread or my update regarding the OP's RF parts you implied were available from klipsch parts dept.
