Hi, Im new to this forum and looking forward to learning more about gear. I came across this unusual speaker with Fender markings indicating CTS manufacture yet it is clearly marked as Altec Lansing. I'm confused, Did Altec build speakers at any point out of CTS parts for Fender? is this speaker unique or rare?

Is this in a guitar amp? 10"? Grille cloth winking I out at top makes me think so...

Hi Dave, I picked up a set of KG4's from 1984 it says 4 ohm nominal on the back. Both tweeters are missing and the plastic bracket on the one horn broke off.
I am thinking of making a plate where the tweeter was and attaching an aftermarket tweeter from Parts Express

A fellow AK'er suggested i contact you, Any advice for a replacement that would work ?

An adapter plate may be your best bet. Your problem then becomes the KG sensitivity of 94 db which is quite low for Klipsch. Most modern tweeter drivers have more output and are normally at least 104 db efficient. Current state of the art drivers can be made to work with attenuation though. If it were me I would hold my nose and ask at the garage sale section of the Klipsch forum for a set of those.

Next would be EBay where everything shows up sooner or later but it may take a while before what you need shows up. For whatever reason there are a lot of KG4's for sale out there right now.

You do beautiful work. I'm currently looking at purchasing a Japanese B4. Have you ever rebuilt one or do you have any kits and pieces for these?
Thanks

Hello,
I stay primarily focused on v-fet gear. I do not have any kits for the B4.
Thanks for reaching out.

Do you still have the Synergistics S-71 speakers? I am looking for the 10" woofers. They fit my RTR 280 DR speakers and I need at least two.

That was a great album you have. I saw them at a festival in Gonzales La in 1970.

Hi Dan,
You were recommended to me regarding taking on the restoration of the the Nakamichi made Fisher RC-80b cassette deck, the first recorder to incorporate both CrO2 and Dolby capabilities. This deck is important to me as part of my personal Fisher museum. Obi-Dan, you're my only hope!
Sincerely,

Hello, I’m looking for a complete led lamp kit for an onkyo tx-5000. Light blue is preferable, with warm white as backup, for the five axial tuner and meter lamps powered by 6.3v ac. The indicator lamps for the tuner and input selectors can be warm white. Let me know if there is any other info you need.
Thank you.
Rob

Just read somewhere you might be retiring from the lamp business. Hope not!
