Guest Pickles Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Recently, I went to a thrift store and picked up a mint condition Model Twenty Four turntable for pennies on the dollar, but it didn't have speakers. Today, I went to a yard sale and picked up a mint condition set of Model Six speakers for $30, but I am facing a little bit of a problem.The Model Twenty Four has RCA style speaker outputs, while the Model Six speakers have the separate positive and negative terminals. Is there any way that I can connect the two? Any advice would me much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKent Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 No problem you fortunate one. Find a good electronics store and buy RCA plugs. Or you can find a length of RCA-to-RCA speaker wire at RatShack and cut it in half. OR...two of these would work fine:http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.js...rentPage=searchgood luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 I would still keep my eyes open for a pair model 24's because the KLH systems had a contoured output and sound best when matched with the correct speakers. The model 24 put out 40 watts IHF peak music power & the moedel 24 speakers with 8" woofer were designed as a pair. The model 6 speaker is a more robust speaker with it's 10" woofer and would sound best with a more powerful amplifier. Side note; the complete model 24 system sold for $349.95 back in the late 60's...thats about $1000 plus in todays dollars! I have a model 20 system ( see www.antiqueradio.com and see archives March 2006 article I wrote on these systems, it's titled "Kloss Brings Modular HiFi to the Masses") or just googe "KLH Hayden model twenty".
