KLH twenty

HI found a pair of KLH TWENTY speakers near me. Has anyone tryed this model?

They are the 4 ohm version of the KLH 17; very nice speaker. Note that the capacitors generally need to replaced in these.

Google AK, tons of info on that model. Definitely replace the capacitors, they are notorious for causing trouble.

^ Yup, and reseal the woofer surrounds with the sealer ebay seller "vintage-ar" sells. It's the best and closest to the factory sealer you can get.

Thanks for the responses.

I picked up a pair in the spring for a bargain price. The owner thought they had dead tweeters. I did a re-cap, re-sealed the woofers, cleaned up the cabinets and replaced the grille cloth. They look and sound great for 50 year old speakers.

I have a pair of KLH 20's. The tweeter came back to life after I replaced the caps. I also changed the posts to replace the RCA plugs in the back.

They are very nice speakers. I like them better than the Dyanco A25's I used to have. I A/B'd them for my daughter to use in her system. She took the KLH's, and I sold the Dynacos.
