Members Sonar Posted July 8, 2008 Members Share Posted July 8, 2008 I was given two used Roland KC500 amps in incredible condition for their age (the have ALL the stupid gold knob tops still intact on BOTH units...which is almost a miracle in itself!) BUT one has a blown tweeter/horn... ...and I'm contemplating what might be a better replacement rather than going stock. Has anyone else modded or experimented in this direction? DISCLAIMER: Yes, I know Roland will sell me another tweeter. I'm just wondering how this unit might sound with better quality components for speaker and/or tweeter. Yes, I know I'm just asking for trouble or problems...but I wouldn't do anything that I couldn't reverse. I'm just thinking a couple of JBL, EV or McCauley speakers I have gathering dust might be interesting to try...and I'd bet the stock Roland tweeter is probably of lesser quality than the stock 15" speaker. Roland can only give you so much at this price point. I'm just curious if anyone else has played around with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean you also don't have any good mods for the Behringer K1800FX Keyboard Amplifier either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members memphis Posted July 8, 2008 Members Share Posted July 8, 2008 Find someone in your town/city who does good speaker work. Tell him what you're after and see if he can help you pick something out that fits the parameters of the box and the type of sound you're going for.
