A different version of kappa 9

[ccheung]

I openned my kappa 9 for recap. I found that the crossover is a bit different from the schematics. I'm sure the speakers haven't been mods before and everything is original. And some differences showed its afterthought after the original design.
Following are the difference from the schematics:
1. 2Ohm resister added before the tweeter pot.
2. L6 is shorted.
3. an additional air core inductor added to Mid-bass
4. C17 changed to 100uf
5. R6 changed to 1.5 ohm

Does anybody have this version of kappa? Anybody know what is the sonic difference from the original?

I don't know about the rest but the C17 size is clearly a typo on the spec sheet. It is 100uF in the crossover and the math!

I think there was a 9a that was supposed to be more amplifier friendly - then came the 9.1 model that was even easier on amps
