    CS-63DX crossover wired incorrectly?

    I recently acquired a pair of CS-63DX speakers. When I took them apart to examine the crossovers, I noticed wiring which seems to be inconsistent with the schematics I found online. It appears as if the "supertweeter" horn tweeter is connected to the tweeter circuit, while the tweeters are...

    Cerwin Vega DX-9 crossover repair

    I have a pair of CV DX9 and I wanted to repair the crossovers on them. I'm looking to do a complete rebuild of the board. I've got the skills to solder the board back together, but I am clueless on what to buy for the parts and need help figuring out which parts are the best overall. I also need...

    My expectations Bose 901 and setup

    I’ve had a pair of 901s for many years powered by my Pioneer sx950. I have the equalizer connected correct via manual instructions and it sounds decent. But like they say dissatisfied with lows and highs. I must’ve been drinking when I decided to buy a Pioneer 3 way crossover just...

    BOSE 601 Series ii crossover (only one Resistor and Capacitor in Xover )

    hello Bose enthusiasts, Anyone who rebuilt the Xover could indicate if this makes sense to them ? Perhaps the Xover were modified, i have no way to know but am strating to suspect they might have been. But maybe not, might be a leaner version of the network. Eager to hear from anyone who has...

    How can I Determine Frequency Divider connections?

    I am seeking a way to determine which output terminals of speaker crossover networks feed which components. So, what I have is a set of 3-way frequency dividing crossovers, but I need to figure out which wires should attach to which driver components. There are no indications on the boards as to...

    noob question crossover ditton 15xr

    Hi all Sorry for my poor English. I am just exploring this new hobby. I want to give some new life to my Celestion ditton 15XR speakers and learn something in the proces. The sound of the tweeter is harsh. Soft music like piano is good, but Queen for example is a audiophile mess. The human...

    Vintage Magnavox bookshelf questions

    I've recently acquired a pair of Magnavox S-8753's as part of a bulk electronics purchase. It could be a score. I'm not sure of the value. They have a 16 ohm 8" woof with alnico magnets, but the original paper 3.5" tweets have been replaced with some vintage Radio Shack 40-1276B domes, which...

    Cerwin Vega DX9 Crossover

    I just recently got ahold of some CV DX9's and they are in need of some work. I am looking to completely rebuild the crossovers on them as there are some missing pieces on the board, alongside what looks like broken coils on them. I was curious as to if a full rebuild was possible or if I would...

    Restoration of Acoustic Research AR3 Speakers

    So I fairly recently obtained a pair of AR3 speakers that were in pretty bad shape and, with the generous support of members on this forum and a few other sources (more on that later) I managed to restore them to what I feel is a good representation of their former glory. I wanted to share my...

    Anyone ever do a JBL N1200 DIY build? (Another 3-way JBL thread)

    I'm working on putting together a 3-way JBL system in a pair of C34 cabinets that I'm close to finishing up. It would look something like: 130A, 175/2410, and 075. At the moment, I only have a single N1200 crossover and the prices for a second are leading me to consider just building my own and...

    Advent Legacy I

    I have a set of Advent Legacies the I just picked up. Of course it needed new foams and that is in process. I'm a fan of the Jensen era Advents. I think they are good speakers and with just a little bit of tweeking become a much better speaker. I've done a bunch of work on the Heritage...

    Is this an original ESS Transtatic I crossover?

    Hello all, Just purchased a pair of ESS Transtatic I's. They are the most amazing speakers I've ever heard. Someone replaced the original tweeters with some Peerless tweeters. It looks like they kept the Kef racetrack woofers and mid-ranges. There is no wall cord and some of the ones I have seen...

    Werner Jagusch Crossover Schematic?

    Hey AK I purchased some custom solid teak speaker cabs that already had a Werner Jagusch 2-way XO installed. They were bought to accommodate my Altec 288-8G and 515B drivers. I had a buddy come over with a directional mic, pink noise generator and some software installed on his laptop to try...

    Tale of Two Minimus 7s Sets

    With 2 sets of nearly identical Minimus-7 speakers on hand, the opportunity to modify one set and compare it with the other made for a small and fun long-weekend (Victoria Day in Canada) project. Both Minimus-7 speaker pairs are the 40-2030B variant: one is from January 1984 (1A4 date code) and...

    Infinity Infinitesimal 0.1 Crossover Re-Capping

    Hi everybody, What's the story on re-capping crossovers on these speakers? Has anyone done it and where did you get the parts? I'm having a hard time locating these 1200 and 700uF 50 volt capacitors. I guess they're non polarized and that's what the schematic reads. One speaker has very little...

    Magnepan MGII Repair/Restore, Glue, Glue and more Glue

    I bought a pair of MGII last fall on CL for $200.00 with known issues. They sat around during the winter because there was no way quality control would allow stinky glue in the house. I once finished off an entire office with Victorian woodwork, built in shelves, wood ceiling and did all the...

    I have another thread in the "Lansing Legacy" about these speakers also: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/jbl-4435-bucket-list-countdown.901225/ That thread talks about positioning and replacing the diaphragms in the horns. The executive summary: Position them wherever they will...

    New KLH 20 Crossover with WIMA Film Capacitors

    The crossovers in a pair of KLH 20 speakers were restored/upgraded with WIMA MKS2 capacitors. The KLH 20 speaker is essentially a KLH 17 speaker with a 4 ohm woofer and share the same crossover. Whereas the KLH 17 was sold separately, the KLH 20 speakers were part of the KLH Model 20 Music...

    KLH Model Twelve, Five Pounds of Capacitors into a Four Pound box.

    I got these off CL last Fall. $200.00 since you asked. Had to hide them in garage until the time was right. You've all been there. I still need to refinish the cabinets. They have a bit of a milky look to them and I like crisp grain. The contour box (crossover) has nice crisp grain and...

    Klipsch Heresy I Restore, oh no not another one.

    I got a set of original Heresy's a couple of years ago. When I got them I hooked them up and they were unimpressive. I was hoping for 1980's boomy base to shake the room and that was not there. It never will be there until you buy Heresy IV's (or so I have heard). I Googled and Googled and...
