earthpig13 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I have a bad tweeter in a r28f part 1061375. I am unable to locate a replacement. Does anyone have this tweeter or is there another tweeter that would work in its place ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it is Simply Speakers in Florida that is worth a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OO1 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 so discontinued , and sold out . @rebuy , had 1 set of these R-28F tweeters years ago , let's wait for him to chime in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthpig13 Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 I understand that they aren’t available. Is there any other tweeter I can get to make this work ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO1 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 the problem is that any other tweeter has to fit the horn , and the impedance must match the specs of the R-28F tweeter My 1st reaction , would be the RF -35 Tweeter , it looks quite similar , except for the terminals placement , you would have to check the specs with klipsch as far as the impedance . https://www.ebay.com/itm/185692421815?hash=item2b3c217eb7:g:Q08AAOSwB69jlJhm&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4GUXaH7HJPnwepGaT4WtHNszWPXMAe24%2BZSQmjqYWjp6mrgnzjMUk0oOu6mButkh5MVcO5LuAXYkaEkNSo2MsoqnXK3BAAYTkpc5Ns2V%2BcYRW%2FYFcam%2Fq%2BBiTJGqLKMTYQEr6ZLl74FxoLuZJ%2BzbpSjEVYQQxR7Di%2Fge5lDfYloZ1UnB%2BhU86PZ%2B2KaZKTGCy%2BUsgBoYDMnKMOzq%2BOzsktxXbRsAPNxmqG7v6G%2BEPZEU3sB%2BOkOEhxfn883JHEaZlxWd2yYwEslZjXXxtiI6yLEELeJ2lWJ6X3WhN5nI7u66|tkp%3ABk9SR5L-rpWjYQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebuy Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 The tweeters I have sitting in a box are for the Synergy F20 They might work IDK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rome Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I realize this is an old post. Short story, same challenge, blown tweeter in R-28F. Contacted Klipsch, they were extremely helpful. The R-15M horn with tweeter has the same tweeter, they recommended that I order and remove the tweeter from the horn and install. Have ordered the R-15M, and Klipsch doesn't charge shipping, same prices as what I saw on line. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Encrypted_God Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Yes, I am a thread grave digger😉 I have some R-26F's. One of the tweeters is blown. To double check, I swapped the other to the one that is blown. Nothing. Could it be the crossover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
