dynaco a25

I have a chance to get these B&W DM4s. I went to the store selling them, listened to them and they sounded good, so I put down a small deposit. But when I showed this picture to a friend, he mentioned he thinks the super tweeter on top is not original. My research says this super tweeter should...

I recently picked up a pair of broken Dynaco A25. Turns out one of the speakers tweeters magnet's simply unscrewed and unglued (?) and fell back into the cabinet. I cleaned the magnet "gap" with compressed air and some tape, reinserted the voice coil into it and screwed it back together and it...

I've accumulated a modest collection of vintage audio gear, mostly from the '60s and '70s: amps, receivers, turntables, tape decks. Vintage speakers tend to be bulky though, so while I have a few (Large Advents, Infinitys, Spica TC-50s, Magneplanar MG1s), they can be a hassle to place and swap...

Hey guys! I've been a lurker on here for a while now and have learned a whole lot from this forum. Many thanks for sharing the knowledge, it's much appreciated! :D Since lurking, I've bought a pair of Scandyna (Dynaco) A25 which I've recapped and have paired it with a Marantz 1060. They're...

Hey All! After reading numerous threads about the best ways to clean Dynaco A25 Grille Cloths, I wanted to take a stab and post my results. I tried a few methods and came up with with some techniques along the way. My method includes bleach, so attempt at your discretion. Bleach can weaken...

Hello everyone, I just recapped my A25s and aftering looking over some of the pictures I took I noticed these have 3.9 ohm and 4.7 ohm resistors where others I've seen have 2.2 ohms. Any reason for this? From what I can tell these have never been opened.

Recently purchased a pair of Dynaco A25 speakers from the original owner. Great price, came with all the original paperwork and receipt of purchase, and are about as clean as can be for 50 year old speakers. Owner never even took the grills off. After inspection, they have been well cared...

Who knows the answer? I just picked a pair of a25, however it doesn’t look like the ones on ebay. The logo is not on the bottom left, the inside is not black, its red cardboard material , the tweeter is on the upper right, but has 8 screws not 4 ( I suspect its replacement) . The grill is also...

Hello all. I am considering a pair of Dynaco A25 speakers. I am assured they are in mint plus condition. What would a fair price be? And I’m pretty new here so please be kind if this isn’t the right place or format or syntax or whatever else seems to offend so many folks that should be having...

So I've done what I feel like a crazy amount of research before piecing my first ever vintage stereo system. Take it easy on me as I'm sure there are many things that I have missed but I am all for any recommendations that could be better for my next setup for my basement. Currently running ...

I have been using and enjoying these funny Dynaco's or Scan Dyna A25 / M25X hybrids (whatever they are) and whilst the sound is good, am toying with the idea of swapping the 2 small Peerless drivers out for a single tweeter, either the original SEAS H087 or perhaps the new equivalent Seas...

I‘ve just bought a pair of A25XL‘s for next to nothing. One seems to be working fine and sounds wonderful but the woofer on the other has some serious issues and I really want to know if it's possible to repair it. I've looked at all the very helpful A25/A25XL repair threads here and elsewhere...

I am editing the original post to add my existing situation. [orig] Still searching for a new pair of speakers for a new to me Yamaha CR-820. Was leaning toward a pair of Polk Monitor Model 10s with the Peerless tweets but I am looking for something a little smaller. [added] I have been using...

Hey Guys, Made a previous thread about my A25's, the highs being low/muted on one side and planning a recap. Started to get some distortion from the same speaker and didn't investigate it real close, thought the recap would take care of it. Of course it was the woofer though. Recap and deoxit...

Hey AKer's! I have some A25's that I picked up, cabinets in great condition. I noticed that the right channel was not as bright as the left. After months of use, I drove them pretty hard one day (SX-780 so maybe not too hard) and the right started to sound blown, some crackling. Switched the...

Google shows a number of results that are 10+ years old. I recently came across a pair of what are best described as NOS Dynaco A25's. Original boxes, price tags etc. super minty. The grille cloth is stained, a ring around the woofer is seen on the grilles. I assume this may be from the...

Youtube link below says it all but I got a pair of dynaco a25's for $95 yesterday and it was a public meet up thing so I couldn't test them. On one the voice coil rubs which you can hear while testing with the hand pressure method. My question is what likelihood is it being a bad re-foam job...

I only have one Dynaco A25 speaker. I really like the sound and size for a small room where I listen to mostly jazz and classical music. As a woodworker, I can easily make a reproduction of the cabinet, but I don't know what drivers or crossover to place inside the enclosure. Can you...
