Broken grill, can I just get the part?

Recommended Posts

I have a pair of KLF 20's and I accidently broke one of the plugs that attach the grill to the speaker. Just wondering, can I get it replaced or do I have to get a new grill assembly. I would hate to spend 50+ just to get that small part replace.

Thanks,

marc

You should be able to get just the plug. I take it your talking about the male end attached to the grill itself. Just call 1-800-KLIPSCH and they can help ya.

I called 1-800-klipsch and they said that I needed to buy the whole grill! Well I made the order to parts express and it shipped a few days ago. According to the dimensions on the page, the male plug should be exactly like the original. I will post another reply when they come in. Also, I had to order 12 sets only when I needed one so if anyone out there has the same problem, give me an e-mail and I will send you a set for free.

Thanks,

marc

Damoly, I just received a pair of KLF 30's that were damaged in shipment. Six of the male plugs were sheared off the grille covers. Can I buy any of your surplus? Thanks. HornEd

Thanks, Marc! Your excess plugs are just what the KLF doctor ordered. I sent a separate email with particulars. What a great world we live in when an old post can be updated and responded to in about a half hour. Thanks again. cwm30.gif HornEd

Just received a bag of 12 grill guides from Parts Express ($2.40 a bag plus shipping, great place for getting suppliescwm30.gif ) The 260-367 do indeed appear to be identical to those on my KLF-20s.

My first pair of KLF-20s were floor samples with a broken male guide on one. I took them and my dealer (Stereo Types, nice folks) ordered a complete replacement grill to replace the damaged one for free. I kept the damaged grill and now I have a perfectly good spare! Life is good.

By the way, I'm probably the only one who missed it, but I just noticed that pretty old style Klipsch medallion on the legend is solid metal. Classy touch! (What were they thinking going to the oval logo anyway?) Was the legend the last design to use the old badge?

Anyway, I just wanted to thank TalkToKeith for this great tip plus it seems good to bring this thread back to the top every few months so people can find it.
