    KLH Six, are these capacitors already upgraded?

    New owner of a pair of some KLH Six speakers. One is old.. I haven't opened that one yet. The newer of the two has 169*** serial number, with the screw in woofer and recessed back plate. Do these caps look like they've already been replaced? I don't have the full backstory, the owner...

    KLH Model Six recap: blood, sweat & tears

    Hey, all. OK, I realize this subject has been addressed in other threads, but I'm still confused about what to do. First off, I love these KLH 6's with my little push pull 15-watt maggie. But the left speaker suddenly sounded dull, and it turned out the tweeter was not working. The tweeter...

    KLH Six: Best of the Vintage KLH Bunch?

    I have a chance to get a pair of KLH Model Six locally. Can you please answer a couple questions? I’ve got some Seventeens, and have restored a pair of Twenties and Twenty Threes, how do the Six’s rank among them? How do the Sixes rate overall against speakers you have? Obviously, I’ve read many...

    KLH Six Speakers: Low-power tube amp or high-power solid state?

    So I've been looking through previous threads about KLH Six speakers and half of them say KLH Sixes and tube amps are a match made in heaven. The other half say that KLH Six speakers sound best with higher-powered amps. What gives? Knowing the time period in which they were produced, I would...

    KLH Model Six

    Hello, I have been lurking on this site for a while. Recently bought a cheap pair of KLH model six speakers from Craigslist. As expected, the tweeters are not working, so I am going to put in new capacitors. I have read many threads on here, but all of the old ones look different than mine...

    Heathkit AR-13A. What do you know about it?

    Recently picked up a Heathkit AR-13A Receiver from the early 1960's. Not a lot of information out there about this unit. It's a very early solid state unit and has separate AM and FM dials which is somewhat unique. It has a lot of additional controls under a panel on the front faceplate. The...

    Just re-capped KLH Sixes

    This afternoon I recapped a pair of Sixes I purchased at an estate sale about a year ago. I've recapped Original Large Advent and AR-2ax speakers, but neither job made as much of a difference as new caps on these sixes. Until now I had really favored the ARs but, now I'm not so sure. I've...
