Titanium Voice Coils - where to get best price?


I have a pair of Vintage Klipsch kg2’s and am considering replacing the voice coils with Titanium voice coils. Does anyone know where I can find the best price for them?

I appreciate all info and feedback.

 

Thanks!

@erik_squires I actually just read something in a thread about titanium voice coils and wanted to try it out with hopes to improve SQ with my speakers for less than replacing them.  Btw, where is DIY audio?

@tsacremento I read somewhere that titanium voice coils would improve SQ and wanted to try it before considering new speakers.

@audiokinesis thanks!

@erik_squires Actually, I have no experience or desire to build my own speakers.  Currently, my kg2’s are at the local repair shop getting recapped.  This is also something I’ve never heard of or had done prior to having it recommended by a salesman at a pro audio shop.  Honestly, I’m just trying to optimize / tweak the equipment I have now in ways which would be applicable for long term use if / when I ever invest in new components.  
@audiokinesis  Thanks for your input.  I really appreciate it.  Like I told Erik, my speakers are at a repair shop now and the technician (owner) told me that he could replace the voice coils with Titanium.. but after what both you and Erik have shared .. I think I’m probably better off looking for new speakers if / when the time comes to invest in new equipment.  I inherited the kg2’s from my Dad along with a Denon DRA-25 Receiver.+ Denon CD player.  So far I’ve had them both recapped and the solder refreshed.  This made a big improvement in SQ.  My main source for music is a Bluesound Node 2i streaming from TIDAL through Roon.  Otherwise, I’ve not changed anything else except new speaker cables from Blue Jeans Cables.  I’ve tried some Audioquest RCA cables connecting the Node 2i to my receiver and also a set of Shunyata Venom RCA’s.  But am now using the stock cables that came with the Node 2i because the AQ & Shunyata didn’t sound any better to my ears.  I’ve considered adding a LPS to the Node 2i.  But that’s something I’ve never tried before and from what I’ve read - my set up is a “mid-fi” stereo.  And been told that in order to make any worthwhile upgrades in SQ I should just start over.  Anyway, thanks again for your feedback.  I appreciate it.
