Axellfoxy Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Hello everyone, I recently replaced the crossovers and the membrane of the two tweeters of my LEGEND KLF 20 with those of Bob Crites and after a few months of listening the impression is that the sound is much more detailed and refined, has anyone made this or other kinds of changes to these speakers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absolve2525 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Yup! Crites Ti diaphragms are great. I've used them in all models that have a version of that tweeter. I recap also, which also improves clarity. 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWL Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Sorry can you explain why you are against ?Just joking around. I have two pair of 30's that are are totally modded/upgraded. If you want to upgrade the components in your 20's go for it. You'll most likely be glad you did.Biggest thing is to make sure your cabinets are solid.Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I recently changed the crossover networks and the tweeter diaphragm I inspected carefully the inside of the cabinet,no signs of sagging of glued parts,the only thing I had to glue were the two rear reflex ducts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I will do! 👍 In Italy the LEGEND KLF series unfortunately was little sold compared to Heritage and underestimated by purist audiophiles because they believed ,often without having listened to them ,that it was good only for home theater and could not even be compared to the Cornwall, reading on the USA forums instead I found many admirers of the LEGEND series. In my room (8,5 mt x 4.5 mt with speaker on the short side) I managed to make two Chorus II sound very good (great speakers but unfortunately they failed after a few years because the one who sold them to me had treated them rather badly and it was no longer worth repairing them) but unfortunately I did not get the same result with two Cornwall while the KLF 20 for my room seem to be perfect and with the Bob Crites crossover and tweeter upgrading they sound as detailed and refined as Cornwall,with all due respect to many Italian enthusiasts who continue to pay used Cornwalls a price twice as for KLF😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
