Guest premiumplus Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hi all,This is my first post, and I want to begin by thanking you all for the informative, friendly atmosphere on this forum.I have a pair of KLH model 23's that need new tweeters. From what I've learned from reading and searching, the tweeters are common in many models of KLH speakers. I have advertised in the "wanted to buy" section, but I also would like to hear from your experience...are there any good replacement tweeters that are reasonably priced, that I could substitute in this cool old speaker? I see where complete speakers can be had for $30-40 bucks or so; so I don't want to break the bank but I would like to resurrect these. Do you have some suggestions as to what I should do with them?

JKent Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Welcome!If those are the same tweeters used in the 17, 20 etc etc, they often come up for sale. I know member ryansdad had some for sale recently--maybe he still does. Also check this thread: http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/IP.Boar...?showtopic=4238PeteB has been studying tweeters and he found a couple of appropriate modern replacements for the tweetrs in the KLH 20. They are available from Madisound for $11 each.http://www.madisound.com/catalog/product_i...roducts_id=8312Good luckKent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKent Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 PSTwo more thoughts:KLH caps were notoroiusly crappy, so while you are at it, replace them with new film caps.ALSO--another newbie, Chet, has a question about what's inside the box. So once yours are open, maybe reply to his post:http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/IP.Boar...?showtopic=4866Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
