DLUngurait Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I need to get a copy of a schematic for a type AL crossover for my 1985 LaScalas. If anyone has one of these schematics (or even similar) could you please help a brother out? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEC Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Here is a confusing but informative thread on the AL crossovers. I have actually seen three different designs by now all labeled just as AL. The AL is a tweeter blowing wonder of science. Many thanks to djk for telling us how to fix it. I have passed that on to many people having repeated tweeter failures in the time since djk told us this. http://forums.klipsch.com/forums/thread/433040.aspx Bob Crites 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Klappenberger Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 If you have an AL like the schematic above, remove the two R-L-C "things" in the woofer and squawker section. Do NOT remove the one in the tweeter filter though. That one actually does something usefull! Al k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post by Bob Crites referred to this thread - https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/45814-type-al-crossover/& ALK was referring to the second schematic, labelled AL. The first is an AL-3 network. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If removing them from the woofer and squawker only a good idea, might as well. Of course, they may be removed already. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it gets any better than this, I will not be able to see to solder. Will check it out. Thanks Carl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly are you doing while listening to music that's causing you to go blind? OOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooh. Got it. I don't think I want to come over for a demo.
