blimycapn Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I have a pair of EV Aristocrat speakers. These were built to a Klipsch design in the '50's. My question is, are there crossovers in these speakers and can they be rebuilt? Has anyone done this to this model? They don't appear to be easy to dissassemble. Anyone had them apart? Thanks.

BEC Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Scotty, I have built some of the EV crossover designs. Actually just the X336 so far for the Georgian. I am working on figuring out the X2635 used in the Patrician. Do you know what EV crossover model was used in the Aristocrat? Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 There were many flavors of the Aristocrat available from EV. Some had a single speaker, an SP12 or SP12B, and no crossover. Some had a single speaker, SP12TRX or SP12BTRX with a built-in T35 tweeter, and no separate crossover. Some were two-way systems with a woofer, SP12, SP12B, 12W or 12 BW, and a midrange horn and had an X-825 crossover. Some were three-way systems including an X-36 crossover and a T35 horn. Some had one or two AT-37 level controls. And then there were the Aristocrat cabinets that were purchased separately and filled as the customer liked.

blimycapn Posted October 2, 2005 Author Share Posted October 2, 2005 I removed a grill that had been happily on there for 50 years and discovered there is a single 12" speaker so no crossovers. Thanks, Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
