rtrahan123 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I'm looking to purchase a full set of Heresy II drivers. I recently found a pair of Heresy II cabinets at a garage sale. The problem is, there are no drivers or crossovers in the boxes. I called the Klipsch parts dept.,and they informed me that I would not be able to purchase the parts from them. He told me they are no longe available. I know that I can get the woofers from Layne, but where besides e-bay can I find the midrange horns and tweeters. I also would like to know if the crossovers are the same as the type E found in the later Heresy I speakers. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

J.4knee Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 You can build the crossovers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerohm Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 what are the values of the two inductors? 2.8 mh and .16 mh ??? Pretty difficult for me to figure out. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 what are the values of the two inductors? 2.8 mh and .16 mh ??? Pretty difficult for me to figure out. Thanks Yes you are correct My schematic shows the larger one as a 2.5mh and not 2.8. Which is really correct? Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Ha! I can clear that one up perfectly. I happen to have two sets of Heresy II crossovers right here next to me. One is from a late model H2 and the other is from an early H2. The woofer inductor on one of them measures about 2.6 mH and on the other measures about 2.7 mH.

Marvel Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 So... Bob, are you saying that any of these values are in the ballpark? Or should I look at my later model HII to see what they are? Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 In the picture below are the two types of H2 crossovers I have. I think the one on the right is the newest. The one on the left has the inductors marked as to value at .16 mH and 2.5 mH. The 2.5 mH one actually measures about 2.6. The inductors are not marked at all on the one on the right as far as I can tell. The woofer inductor on that one measures about 2.7 mH.

rtrahan123 Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 I've been doing some research on prices and parts to build my own crossovers using the schematics you've provided, I found all the parts online, but I have a question about the inductor labeled #3504 (-10dB). I haven't been able to find anything with those specifications. What exactly is it? Where can I find It? I know you said you have the crossovers already built and the parts to build them. My cabinets were built around 1987 and have the rectangular speaker terminals on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 That part is an autotransformer. You would need the model 3636 and those are available from me. Bob Crites bobcrites@centurytel.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyboy Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Hello Bob, "I can fix you up with any drivers" Long ago i saw this tweeter with a double square magnet ! I think it was just for an experiment . Is it possible to do it again and is it worth the trouble . Thank you, Bennyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Bennyboy, I built a few of these double magnet tweets in an attempt to duplicate the performance of the T-350. Turned out it was not a lot better than a K-77 or T-35, so did not make many of them. In January though, I will have an improved tweeter available that is a good upgrade compared to the K-77.

jwc Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 I have demoed and tested Bob's new tweeter. A better buy than a K-77. Exact same horn dimensions. Now I just need to demo/buy those new woofers of his.[] jc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyboy Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Thank you very much Bob !!! It is the same picture but i couldn't load it on the forum . Anyway , i am very curious so i will wait to januari . I need a lot of stuff to build a second pair La-Scala's . I can still play music so i have some time... You can put a Beyma CP-25 in but i think there is nothing wrong with the K-77. It does a better job to take over the midrange because of his strong low end. Bennyboy, thanks for your input JC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
