Oh my god, reading it again, I see that I had already mixed up the letters in the post and the corresponding woofers. . It was a bad day for my mental fitness. No wonder you should despair of me. I don't have a “P” but a “V”. And I'm not going to sell this “V” to anyone, especially not “blind” and built into a case. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Marvel, I have moved the project with the transformers (and cabling) to the back for now. I came across this horn and would like to keep it as original as possible with just a few measures. I'm taking my time to get used to the horn and the horn to me. Replacing the bass drivers was not planned but necessary to have a starting point because one of them was rattling. I'm also not sure if it's a decentered voice coil. Because it also rattles when I tap the cone lightly with my finger when the woofer is put on the table the magnet facing down. A decentered voice coil would not rattle when tapped I think. It looks more like something has come loose. But no matter, since these K33 “V” are perhaps the only area that could not be original? On Saturday we are on vacation with my 89-year-old mother for the next two weeks. After that, I'll start carefully. New rubber seals, and days later I'll start by connecting my type AA from the LaScala with the polyester caps just to have a benchmark because the coils are almost identical since I happily found the original T2A in the cellar somewhere.. The original caps in the KH look dry, but I have to measure them after 51 years. One squaker seems to be a bit quieter, of course this could have other causes but I'll start with the Xover. I even have a set of brand new original never used JEM caps for the AA that I might use. The original caps will definitely stay on the xover for visual reasons of originality. There's not much more to do for now. Once these measures have been carried out, I will take my time and weeks later install the K55V of my 1977 LS for comparison, as they have had new original Atlas diaphragms since 3 years. Then I can see whether the 1973 K55V from the Khorn could also benefit from new ones. If there is no difference in sound then the old diaphragms will stay. Apart from cleaning all the contacts, I've then actually done enough. I am also happy that I have the original wiring of the Khorn. With the LS, I thought 18 years ago that everything had to be “new” and “better”. In hindsight, that was complete nonsense from my point of view today. I had done the interior wiring with Kimber 4TC, I had bought an ALK Universal crossover. In my subjective case, the ALK crossover meant that I heard less and less music. Back came the type AA. I no longer have to make all these detours and mistakes. I also don't have another 20 “spare years” for what I consider to be stupid gimmicks🙂

If they're in good shape, $200 is a pretty good buy.  Their closest modern relative if the RP-8000F.  Age doesn't mean a lot with most Klipsch speakers if they're well cared for, the biggest issues you may run into are caps and rubber. 

The other I got in a big batch of records that brought my collection from +-200 to around 700. They sound like the prequal to Monster Magnet!   Hawkwind:     The cover for that LP is a piece of work!   popsike.com - HAWKWIND - X In Search of Space - 1971 - UA - 12” LP - 1st Press + Hawkwind Log - auction details

Good Evening,   Got a Shanling EH3,   i am stuck at 20000 songs, i had 1 folder and sub folder per album, but around 40000 songs. Cie said max 20000 per folder, splitt in folder, gonna work.   so, I move my subfolder to main usb folder, so now, i have 3000 folder, but still stuck at 20000 songs, even if i have a 1G USB.   My portable HiDizz, same problem, do you know how to tweak it, so all folders are showed, or songs are showed to play all music   Thanks for any help, on this one   regards

Been in the groove this evening with two bands I saw about six times each and another I never did!     Ever seen an entrance like this? & he was always clean & sober!     Check out Ted's drummer here, a comment below stated something like "He's beating those skins like they owe him money!" He sure is!

Thanks and greating from Canada, Quebec

Hi there. I have a chance to grab these for around $200. I realize they're older Klipsch towers, technology wise, regarding horns, materials used and just generally being 20-25 year old speakers, but are they worth it assuming they're in good shape ?  They'll be used with an  Onkyo Tx-nr 626, or a full tube setup in a 150 sqft room.  Thanks for any experience shared guys 😉

So what if I ask really good questions and you all change something in your model or production?? What’s the understanding to come from that? I’m all four supporting the things of my interest with good effort.. So I must ask… What happens to really really good questions that are impactful and noteworthy.    I asked because it is in my nature to want to try to do the very best that I can. Assuming that the navy taught me anything on the submarines that I worked on and were assigned to, just to ensure the different ships could pass, evaluations and tests and other performance reviews. What kind of silver bullets doesKLIPSCH have for such questions?
