The replacement driver is only 100? That's not too bad. I will be willing to pay that they one that works well sound amazing. And after have them going for a while I listen to my JBLs and they sound almost as if they have an echo. I can't believe how clear the fortes sound and how well the sound carries. I really don't want to have to replace the driver for it not so much for the cost but because I would have no idea what I'm doing.
That is why I told you to contact the ppl at Crites. They will walk you through it. Here is the pricing from their website for the mid-range diaphragm
Quote:
New replacement midrange diaphragms for the following:
Klipsch Heresy II, Cornwall II, Quartet, Forte, Forte II, Chorus, Chorus II, and KLF Series speakers including the following specific Klipsch midrange (squawker) drivers:
K-53-K, K-52-K, K-52H, K-57-K, K-58-K, K-59-K, K-61-K, and K-62-K.
This is a high quality replacement diaphragm developed for us. It tests very good in comparison to an original Klipsch diaphragm and better in a couple of ways. It, has slightly smoother frequency response, it extends a bit higher and it rolls off smoother without a bounce back at higher frequencies.
