filmboydoug Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks Bob. This was on my list of questions I was afraid to ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chops Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Yes, thanks Bob. However, I'll have to read it at a later date as I am starting to doze off while reading it now. [:$] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorjen Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks for takin' the time Bob, good read. And, how would you like a brand spanking new TD-124 for under a hundred bones? Sheesh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom3 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Bob, what are the X and Y terminals on the Klipsch autoformers for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't think there is an x/y terminal on any Klipsch autotransformer. There is an X terminal an Al Klappenberger's model 3619 giving him more attenuation options for his crossovers. There is an X and Y on my 3636 autotransformer that also provide more (but different from Al's) attenuation values. My 3636 model autotransformer is designed to replace any autotransformer that uses attenuation values from 1 to 12 db. Bob Crites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me Loves Khorns Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Off the subject, but Bob, my Passives made it to my house safe and sound. I can't wait to put them in. I'll let you know how they sound. The ones in front still amaze me. Thanks once again, Paul and the boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Paul, Glad the got there all right. Hope you also found the stainless screws and plastic washers I owed you. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Crites yeah, that's it..,. so how do we use the X and Y terminals if we need them? do you have a table of dB vs. connections that include the X and Y? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEC Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 Attached is a PDF showing the connections for attenuation levels from 1 to 12 db for the 3636 autotransformer. Bob Crites B&K_AT-1-1.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Crites Thanks for that PDF file Bob! Having the 1dB steps is great. I'll sure be buying a couple of those from you soon. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest " " Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Having connections for attenuation levels from 1 to 12 db for the 3636 autotransformer would be helpful for the DIY folks. The T2A's tap settings introduces some hairy impediance muliplication factors when computing effective crossover points as a result of the impediance the T2A introduces on the various tap settings. Tap settings and estimated impediance multiplication factors for the T2A as indicated. 4 = 2.16x 3 = 4x 2 = 8x 1 = 16x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
