Does anyone know if Michael Farnsworth, founder of Talon Audio, is still around?


I have some questions about the MKII crossover upgrade for the Khorus X.

Thanks,
Terry

Mainly, I'd like to know if the upgrade is still available, from anywhere.  Talon Audio said that they don't supply anything for the older speakers anymore.

Unfortunately, Rives Audio is no more as of 2015.

Luckily, I got contact info for Mike Farnsworth, so I should be be able to get info about the crossover upgrade.

I have no desire to get rid of these speakers, as they do a LOT of things right.
If you can find Farnsworth, great. If not there is plenty of room for some significant upgrades.

I got in contact with him yesterday.  Thanks for the info on upgrades. I'll probably try some of the things you suggested.

Reference Audio Video in Iowa I believe owns or Talon now - Todd Guerrero.

The current Talon Audio doesn't deal with the older speakers.

The one thing I don’t need to do is reinforce the box. These things are, if anything, over-engineered to a ridiculous degree. I damned near killed myself just getting the speakers down two flights of stairs and into the home theater :)

I’ll definitely be redoing the internal wiring. I just need to do it without breaking the bank. Any recommendations on wire are appreciated. @millercarbon put in a vote for Synergistic Research, and I’ve also had great luck in the past with Analysis Plus.

I'm waiting to hear back from him if he's OK with me handing out his email.
