Some are definitely 4 ohm (stock). I have three generations of these so it's hard to know what is or is not stock. Even some of the Klipsch K-43 drivers seem different. And some for sure aren't stock.
Replacement capacitors exploding
I replaced the capacitors in the crossovers in my Klipsch KSM-1 stage monitors.
There is a capacitor that runs parallel to the woofer which had blown in a couple of my dozen stage monitors. They are from the 90s, which is not ancient, but I figured maybe that age is a factor so I swapped them all out.
The replacement capacitors have all of the same numbers printed on them but are a fraction of the physical size, and in just one season almost all of them have blown. I don’t think they were being pushed harder.
Is there a way for me to order capacitors with the same specs printed on them that are also heavier duty in some other way?

@jamessheyser- Again: try contacted Millersound, with the driver numbers. He should be able to fill in the blanks (ie: even whether stock, or not), for you. Another avenue, far as possible OEM driver info: https://www.klipsch.com/support-nav |
