    Some general ADS L710 repair notes

    In case it's helpful to anyone... I've been trying to replace a 242-2731 Braun tweeter in a first-gen ADS L710. I've seen it mentioned here that if these units show a DC resistance reading then they're probably fine, but not so in the case of the two I have bought off of eBay so far. I tried...

    Polarized Electrolytic Caps in ADS L710 XO

    I am replacing C1, the 100uF axial, in each of my L710's and assumed they'd be non-polarized, but they are in fact marked + and - and the schematic shows polarized as well. I ordered like for like from Mouser, but found it odd. Also the crossover schematic shows only 4 caps, and notes them all...

    ADS L710 Midrange soft dome damage

    I have a pair of ADS L710 speakers that I had stored for a year in a cardboard box. When I recently unpacked them, one of the speakers cones stuck to the cardboard and a piece of the cardboard tore off the box and is stuck on the speakers cone. I wanted to know the best way to remove the paper...

    Speakers cutting in and out

    Hey Everyone, New to audiokarma and upgrading to a nice audio system for the first time. I'm running Fluance RT-81 phono and Akai GXC-750D cassette to a Technics SA-500 receiver and ADS L710 speakers. Everything is within 3ft of the receiver. I'm using 12 AWG wire to run the speakers (overkill...

    ADS L710 or Teledyne AR 94

    Just getting into putting together a little analog to listen to LPs. I dug out my old Technics SL 1500 and a Yamaha CR-450, which isn't too powerful 30+ watts. I see these two sets of speakers for sale locally ARs asking price $125 woofers have been refoamed. ADS $100 trying to find out if...

    Renewed ADS L710's

    Some time back, I purchased a pair of ADS L710's on eBay for $200. Not surprisingly, the tweeters and midranges were way past their prime. Last month, I finally sent them off to Richard So (adsspeakerservice.com, ads_speakers@yahoo.com), an original employee of ADS - he is the man to restore...

    ADS L810 to ADS L710

    I have a pair of really nice ADS L810s and I love them, but man can that low end sometimes take over. It's probably my room. Would switching to the L710s help in that regard? None of my amps have tone controls and I recently tried a Schiit Loki, but I didn't like it at all as it altered the...

    A/D/S L710 problem

    I have a set of early A/D/S L710s. Cloth grills, square corners, no fuses on backs, screw terminals. They have foam surrounds and look to have been refoamed pretty recently. One speaker sounds amazing just as it should. The other seems to be lacking bass. The woofers are both putting out sound...
