Crites tweeter diaphragm to Heresy's ll

[Zach Nelson]

I have done this to my kg4's, and absolutely loved it. My question is, is it just as good when done to the heresy's? I'd love to hear your feedback, good or bad. If you are going to comment about it be a no no to take away from a stock speaker, I can do without those comments. Thanks Audiokarma family!

Should have the same improvement on any klipsch model that can use it, its a better diaphragm than stock.

I just did this to a pair of La Scalas (same tweeter) and am pleased with the results.

I just did this upgrade as well, and it should definitely be considered an upgrade. Do any of you know of any recommended break in period for the Crites diaphragm? Mine sounds nice right out of the gate, but am just curious if my KG4's will just sound better in a few weeks...

Look for a MAHL tweeter made by a Klipsch forum member Dave A. I'm not sure but he even may sell on e-bay. Hands down better than any Klipsch or Crites tweeter. The difference isn't subtle. They even make the mids sound better.

If you are talking about the titanium tweeter diaphragms I did that to KG4s and Heresy IIs. It made a difference in both but the improvement was more pronounced in the KG4s. But the stock Heresy has a better tweeter than the KG4 anyway, so I would expect that.

Wondering if my recently purchased KG 5.5's would similarly benefit from the titanium upgrade? I will do the crossover. I love these speakers. They sound better than my Forte I's. And I've had Heresy's and La Scales in the past which didn't make the same impression on me.

Have a pair of KG 5.2. The titanium diaphragm helped the highs but was pretty lacking in the midrange, woofer and tweeter did not seem to blend. Redoing the crossover replacing the capacitors and the tweeter polyswitch really helped. Then again they may mate better with the 5000A than some other receivers I have tried.
