At a glance:
-They’re home!
-Both woofers could use new cones.
-All drivers could use new foam.
-Cabs don’t look too bad and will clean up nicely with a little fill in and restore-a-finish.
-the woofers are missing the ring covers.
-Zero grills.
-All doable
On first listen:
They sound...interesting. Hard to fully assess without being in tip top shape, but:
-Tweeters work perfect and are some of the best I’ve ever heard and they integrate excellent with the mids. The soundstage and imaging are fantastic. So much air
and ruthlessly revealing. They’ll need a dark amp for sure.
-Not so good, one midrange is completely locked in. Not all drivers worked
, frustrated as I was told otherwise but we will see.
The worst, where is the bass??? There is limited bass with a Bryston 4Be NRB. It’s like you can hear them but it’s so thin. Like I’d need to add passive radiators and mess with crossovers which is a no-no for a classic.
Overall
-Hella potential
-Sounds like if a Maggie had a baby with a Heil, but with little midbass.
-Gotta get those drivers redone!
-All doable stuff for someone with limited skills like myself. Good times.
