rockerrr Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I recently acquired a set of Chorus 1 that are missing the woofers. I know that the stock woofers are k-48. But since they are missing I'm thinking of using k-33 or maybe even Eminence Kappa 15C 4ohm woofers. Supposedly the Eminence are replacement speakers. And the reason I'm considering using either of those woofers is I'm hoping to get a better performing woofer in the lower range. So that's my question, what do you all think of this. And of course I'm open to suggestions for a replacement. I got the speakers for free and the cabs and grill are in great shape. And the crossovers have been recapped already. So spending a little money is not an issue. Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Yes k48k k48e, both came in chorus. Hard to best those. Think that kappa is the way forward as the 48s Can be hard to find, at times. Would have patience until another member like @jjptkd... see this... welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Call or email Klipsch customer support if you can send them pictures of your speakers and serial numbers you should be able to order new k-48-st woofers. Otherwise I'd try and pick up a used set of k-48's from eBay just make sure they're 4 ohm as I've seen both 4 & 8 ohm versions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockerrr Posted May 4 Author Share Posted May 4 Thanks for the info. What about the k33 or the Eminence. Are those viable possibilities? Im thinking since the woofers are not there maybe a custom replacement for a custom build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Would go with the 48s, both choices suggested above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the first reply are basically original chorus speakers the k and the e, as understand it the e for made by Eminence. The one mentioned by member are the best replacement sold by Klipsch, which you need to contact Klipsch about.purchasing. The k-48-st. So, the originals used, or new replacement by Klipsch. Just verify 4 Ohm instead of 8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
