Deang Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Did you ever get an answer for the questions you sent me? Sorry I never responded, but the last eight days have been very bad for me over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg928gts Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Dean, sorry to hear about that. No, I didn't get any answers from you. Whenever you have time, not a hurry. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerwoodKhorns Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 I see that the schematic has John Albright's mod. My Heresys are old and since I am rebuilding my x-overs in other speaker, now would be a good time to do the Heresys. What are the specs for the inductors? (wire guage)? Is a Litz type wire better to use than solid core for this application (AL only uses Lits on the HF drivers)? Do inductors even wear out (should I just replace the caps)? The ALK's are just too expensive to do 4 for surround speakers for HT (using a Denon SS Receiver). Does anyone have a good design that is cheaper? I was thinking about just replaceing the caps with Solens and replacing the transformer and inductor if needed. Thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first bought them, I waqs really surpised that "for some unknown reason" the older ratty pair sounded way better that the newer ones. The parts should explain why: Older version: K77 Tweeter K55v Mid K22 Woofer Thpe E Crossover Newer Version: K77 Tweeter (Plastic) K53 Mid (Plastic) K22 Woofer (uh, not plastic!!) Type E-2 Crossover) By the way, I realize that it is because the Heresys are sealed, but the crossovers look new in all four. Like I said above, I am lookinmg for an inexpensive rebuild (if necessary) for Home Theater surround duty using a Denon 5800 receiver.

tigerwoodKhorns Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Thought that I would bump this one up top to try to get an answer. ---------------- On 1/17/2005 5:42:53 PM tigerwoodKhorns wrote: ---------------- On 1/17/2005 4:44:33 PM DeanG wrote: What year are your Heresy's? ---------------- I have two sets for HT surrounds.
