Infinity Kappa 6.1s
« on: September 08, 2012, 08:53:30 PM »
Found these Kappas for $40 in excellent shape except the woofers.  Put in new foam surrounds from Simply Speakers and Dynamat'd the basket of the woofer per F1nut's tip (that made a difference, IMO).   These are very nice towers with a bit deeper bass than the Reference 3as so they can be played w/o a sub just fine.  Still playing with positioning and tweeter, id controls.  No x-over upgrades yet.  Just glad to have saved them from the trash heap!

So - these speakers could be approaching 20+ years.  What caps should I replace?  I assume the NPEs should be falling out of spec by now - what about the polys?  [maybe it is time I buy a meter that measures capacitance ah?]
