    Thanks AK - Norfolk

    I've been into stereo's since I was a kid, my prized possession when I was a kid was a set of fisher speakers and a Sansui receiver I had. Man I wish I had half the stereo's I owned growing up at this point. Fast forward 20 years and I picked up a set of mint KG4's for 20 bucks. Paired it with a...

    Spare 6 Pin Spring Connector for ADS 910 (Maybe also used in 2002)

    I want to build my own crossovers for a set of ADS 910s. While I could canibalize the originals or just cut and splice, I'd really like to make drop-in replacements that I could swap back-and-forth with the originals for comparison. Anyone have an idea where I might source this part (the six...

    Anyone have suggestions for a decent free audio analyzer software?

    I have a old set of Braun\Visonik tweeters. I have been playing around with different coatings on the dome and would like to use audio software to analyze the different coatings. I also know very little about analyzing speakers other than how they sound to my ear. I have a decent microphone. I...

    An ADS Family mug shot

    There has been a lot of ADS discussion around here as of late with many of us finding models to try out. I've been fortunate to have come into a few that are talked about with affection by many so I thought I would line them up and take a photo to illustrate the scale and size range between...

    ADS l470s followed me home, great more East Coast for the pile.

    While I was picking up some M&K fixers today a pair of ADS L470s were dangled in front of me. I foolishly took them home. Caveat emptor is not my strong suit but they seemed clean enough. With a grill off one speaker I deemed them both to be good. I was told there was an issue with a clicking...

    ADS metal grills touchup. Paint pens? Dents?

    I aquired a second pair of ADS L880's, series 2 version. They do have a couple light dents and scratched off paint. Anyone have experience with paint touchup on ADS perferated grills? Also reducing dents. These grills have a cloth backing to keep dust off the sticky surface mids and tweets. If...

    New Proud Owner of ADS L1290

    So, for anyone who replied to my previous post about these speakers, I bought them! And got a Sony BPC surround receiver and DVD/CD player for free. When I first was testing them I didn't like how much treble there was, but using the switch to turn the tweeter down solved that. They aren't in as...

    How much "watts" would ADS L-Series and M-Series required ?

    Hi, I'm strongly interested in the 80s-90s ADS home speakers, their appearances, their reputations, etc. Also in my car systems, I've used to them very much, the PQ10, 320i, 320is, 320i/s, PH15.2, 642ix, AL4, A5is etc. because they are very famous in my hometown at 20-30 years ago. But in the...

    Woo Hoo, picked up a pair of ADS L880's

    I was in the process of acquiring a tube amp and asked for opinions on what speakers I should get. Well, the acquisition of the tube amp fell through, needed way too much work and he wouldn't come down in price. As it were, I got a lot of feed back on speaker choices. Thanks again for all who...

    ADS L400 Crossover Problems?

    Hello all, I recently bought a pair of ADS L400 Speakers at a local thrift store (the rounded corners/metal ill type). One speaker sounds great. The other speaker also sounds pretty good but has almost no sound from the tweeter. I swapped the speakers and there was no change. I even acquired a...

    ADS i620 question

    Hello. I just purchased a set of ads i620s. I am running them through a Marantz 2270. One of the 10" drivers seem to click when pushed a little so I decided to pull it out. One of the previous owners "dynamated" the back of the driver. The encloser is completely stuffed with insulation...
