In Reply to: Coils for Klipsch speakers - Iron Core or Copper Foil? posted by Dan on March 29, 2000 at 09:11:55:
I will guess that the values for the inductors is 1.5 milihenrys and .7 milihenrys. If true, both values are fairly cheap to purchase in either large guage copper wire wound or foil. Measure the resistance of the existing inductors and try to get close to this for the replacements. Will this improve the low frequency performance? NO. Sonics should change for the better.
Yes, mH, sorry about that. Thanks for the input. I am still trying to determine which is preferred, Cu foil or wire wound. If anyone has tried both and could comment, I would appreciate it. Madisound says that their iron core inductors (Sledgehammer Coils) are excellent for woofer xovers. I am assuming that this has to do with low resistance/impedance. If anyone could comment further, I would really appreciate it.Dan
