    The Mystery Stereo Cabinet with a Philips 212 and an Electro-voice E-v1144

    We're cleaning out my father in law's house and I was asked if I want a hand made stereo cabinet that was originally an apple wood chest of drawers. I started going through the equipment and was stunned to find a Philips 212.I won't be able to try it out until I get back to Colorado. And that...

    EV AT37 Lpads

    Hi everyone, I have a pretty nice set of EV AT37 Lpads that have intermittent performance. Has anyone taken these apart to try and clean and lube? Are there any do's and don't for opening them up other than being very gentle? Eric

    EV Horns and Bass Cabs

    Hello Audiokarma people, Putting this up with some blind trust and faith. Love this site. First time post here. Audio nut, not sure I'd say audiophile as I think that's a level of knowledge I don't quite yet have. Looking at several EV HP1 w/ 9040 horn and TL606DW dual 15" combos. Thinking of...

    Electro-voice speaker identification

    Picked these up at gw for $6. I saw the ev logo and nice solid wood construction and couldn’t turn them down. They use a single 6.5” driver. But the part numbers are no help. They’d probably sound pretty good with a tweeter.

    Electro Voice 12TRXB

    I'm looking at a pair of these for an OB setup, but they're missing the tweeter 'brilliance control'. I know it should be simple to bypass this, but how necessary is to the speakers performance? I've read that these drivers are not overly bright and that many leave the control maxed out...

    Anyone Familiar with Electro Voice 668 / 667A?

    I have a 667A. The original 2" coiled cable was replaced. Can not find that type of mic cable. Also can not find the pins that go into the sockets inside the rear of the mic. I don't even know what those pins are referred to as. Have a pretty good idea these are an Amphenol item but to find the...

    electro voice EV T25a horns diaphragms

    I have acquired 2 electro voice enclosures with possibly regency III. I have tested all speakers with an ohmmeter and they all show readings except the two EV T25a horns. No continuity at all between two points on either horn. I have taken one apart and it looks like the coil is burned out. I...

    Interesting Electro voice Sentry III speakers found

    I have been lucky enough to find 4 of the above mentioned speaker for sale locally, for what can be called a steal. After scheduling a pick-up time and date, i looked at the photos more carefully, and noticed that they actually look like replicas - but still decided to take a look at them...

    I went to pick up a speaker and an amp. Look what I got!

    On Wednesday night, I saw an ad in Facebook Marketplace for an interesting looking amp with meters. The guy used it for DJing along with a set of likely DIY speakers. I contacted him and he replied, and then, nothing. Finally, I tried again last night. I could come in the morning. Just before I...

    Dueling speakers: Vintage Electro Voice EVS 16B drivers verses modern drivers

    I found a pair of late 70's Electro Voice EVS 16B speakers on the curbside. The foam surrounds had rotted away, no surprise there. However all the drivers were working otherwise, so I decided to refoam the woofers. My first ever refoam job, and while it ain't pretty, the woofers function fine...

    Before I commit to this with solder, does anyone have any comments or corrections on this wiring diagram?

    Electro Voice Speaker Project

    A few years ago I purchased a set of EV Lancaster speakers that had obviously been hand built. They were loaded with the Wolverine series low cost drivers, LS12 woofer, MR10 mid horn and TW35 tweeter. The crossovers needed attention so I decided to install a pair of Crites X8 / X36 crossovers...
