Excellent condition OEM Klipsch K-10-K woofer pulled from this quartet.  I purchased a set of quartets and they had a mismatched woofer in one, so, due to difficulty in trying to find another 10" k-10-k, I went another direction and I'm offering this up to Forum members.  I'll audition at time of purchase.  

 

Local pick up: Big Rock 60511 in Illinois

Pick Up: $70 (listed locally at $90)

Shipped $100

Included in the price is a bourbon tasting!  Also, we can do some listening on my restored quartets if you have time.

What other direction did you go?

Dayton Audio PA255-8 10" Pro Woofer 8 Ohm

https://www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Audio-PA255-8-10-Pro-Woofer-295-030?quantity=1&custcol1=Dayton Audio PA255-8 10" Pro Woofer 8 Ohm&custcol_ava_item=295-030&custcol_ava_incomeaccount=General&custcol_ava_upccode=844632084225&custcol_ava_pickup=F&custcol_disableshopping=F&undefined=112.99

 

Impressions: 

-Higher power level: 300rms/600max power handling... not really all that important because I don't listen loud anymore, but it's there for those that choose to turn it up a bit too much after a cocktail er two.

-Clear/articulate bass response

-readily available and not a hassle trying to track down another mint k-10-k

-Direct drop in, no mods needed.

-Comes with it's own gasket attached to the frame

How’s it sound compared to the k-10?

 

I hated the dayton pa310 in my super heresy.

I didn't do an A/B comparison, so I can't tell you the fine details.  Although, when I did do the break in period with the Daytons, I did have a smile on my face and was not noticing any areas where it was noticeably worse than the k-10-k drivers.  I was impressed when I turned it up a bit with the low end reproduction coming out of a relatively small cabinet.

 

So, a person who poo poo's everything but Klipsch will probably find 100 things wrong with replacing the OEM driver with the Dayton.  Everyone else will realize that it is a great replacement option.  Plus I believe Parts Express has a trial period where if you don't like it you can return it.  (Although I think too many people abuse these policies over the years, thus making products cost more in the long run)

I don’t ‘poo poo’…. It just played too high and wasn’t nearly as musical as the celestion tf1225

 

K-10 is 4 ohm too..  That dayton is dorking with the crossover freq

 

Great price on the k-10.. considering picking it up as a spare for my quartet
