I bought this kit from GR Research a couple weeks back, and finally got the chance to do the install this week. Danny was quick to respond to my email and help with a wiring question I had. The improvement in the sound I’m getting now is actually pretty dramatic. Super glad I put this upgrade in my RP600M speakers!

I don't think it would be klipsch employee, the video is encouraging people to buy a Klipsch speaker and improve it for $205. Even with the ratings on this speaker, I wouldn't buy it, but now it is a DIY project. It interest me. I'm a quadriplegic who likes working with my hands in watchmaking, gunsmithing and electronics.

@Fat Rat Thanks, I have always heard that about Klipsch. Way back when, I don't think they called it "listener fatigue" in my circle but conveyed the same experience to me. I have a Ok 5 speaker system for the TV by Hsu. I want a 2 speaker system for my 13 y/o daughter and her having speaker fatigue after 2 hours sounds perfect. I have listening fatigue to any of her music after an hour. Having a project is a double winner. I have been thinking of building from scratch, this is a nice compromise. Thanks for your expertise and patience in explaining.

The sand cast resistors are often not inductance compensated, so they can have quite a significant inductance value, which throws off the crossover and does have an audible effect. Higher end power resistors wind in both directions to cancel out most of the inductive effect of using wire wound resistors.

I got pumped by this and started the upgrades on one of my RP-600ms. I changed the binding post with tube connector pure copper and used some left over Dynamat for the cabinet dampening. The results: base is more tight and mids/highs feel more precise. I would attribute that to reducing the resonance in the cabinet. The binding post look more sleek now as well. For 60$ this was a great upgrade plus a fun project. Looking forward for the crossover upgrade video. :D

I always thought Klipsch were the speakers you want. I can't fight myself out of a wet bag. So my question is what speaker would you recommend for a person like me that listens to 60s and 70s rock. I want a speaker I don't have to rebuild to have good quality?

Great stuff. I would pay for this but i doubt that someone around here makes upgrades like this. However one question - Is the resonance of the cabinet not an intended thing? For the sound/bass to have some mass? Isn't the sound somewhat flat with The Nores?
@dannyrichie9743
@dannyrichie9743 5 жыл бұрын
Cabinet resonances are not intended. And when your box is buzzing it is masking the actual bass output. You never what your speaker to become instruments. You want them to be able to faithfully reproduce real instruments. And No Rez simply damps out those resonances leaving you with cleaner and tighter bass response.

I must say, I was a bit shocked when I saw how cheaply these speakers appear to be made (probably shouldn't be)! That tinny stamped metal on the woofer and all that steel is pretty lousy. Although I do love the way they sound. That being said, I just have to know how much better they can be. Im in!

I like it, because it convinces me, that the build of my JBL clones is not as cheap as I tended to think... It is satisfying to me, that also Klipsch only cooks with water lol... And, by the way, the damping of my clones is even way batter than what Danny does here. I used high quality 2.5" Hemp insulation, covered with a special acoustic fabric to avoid that hemp-fibers can sneak into the speakers (This stuff has slightly the characteristics of Rock-wool insulation. By far not so nasty for sure, but it goes this direction..JBL uses Rockwool pure and doesn`t cover it, so my method is probably more perfect compared to JBL`s Build Quality ;-) ). So, all that said Jimminy Christmas, the audiophile way is the way of tuning and modding. That's a big part of the big fun we can have with our passion!

Hi i'm a decent woodworker , would it make sense for me to craft some custom made boxes made out of a hardwood rather than the particle board stock box ? Other than looks would there be a difference in sound quality . I'd manufacture them exactly the same.

Absolutely great video, Danny. I can’t wait to see the rest of this upgrade. My only question is would it make sense adding something like dynamat to the metal frame of the speakers to further dampen it, or is the No-Rez enough when dealing with a speaker that small? I’d personally think to dampen the insides as much as possible would be the most advantageous. Thanks so much for another great vid, Danny. I love Tech Talk.

Finding a woofer to fit that hole is not going to be easy, and then finding one with parameters that fit that box will be even harder. And then if you do then you will have to design a whole new crossover for it. You are almost starting over from scratch at that point. Before you go that far just build one of our kits for a lot less money and get 10 times the performance.
