I was gifted a pair of these today in great cosmetic shape but 1 is missing a tweeter. I've found 1 on fleabay to replace it, but it's the one that's enclosed in plastic, and the one I need is not enclosed. Can I get the enclosure off? Are they the same specs? This is my first pair of Bose, and...

Recently did a recap (my first one!), refinish, replaced the grill cloth on a pair of Nova 7b's. I love how they turned out and they sound great. 20181121_073106 by @udi0$lave posted Dec 5, 2018 at 12:13 PM

My friend Sean Saley on drums for Pentagram at Hellfest 2012. Pretty sure they did some shows with Saint Vitus that year.

My basement looks like something out of Silence Of The Lambs.
