    JBL C34 and Sansui 9090DB a good match?

    Hello Friends: I presently own a Sansui 9090DB 125 watts into 8 Ohm receiver. I currently have a set of Cerwin-Vega DX-9's hooked up to it and they are rated at 4 Ohms. Been good so far.

    Got the HD880s, need new tweeter and super, woofers work but need replaced soon.

    I already know where I should get the tweeters and super tweeters; however, I am unsure as to where I should get the 12" woofers and what brand I should get to replace the current ones as the cabinets have already been modified to hold the standard 12" ones. Also, I need to fabricate the Grill...

    Find of a lifetime! Tannoy Monitor Red 15

    I recently bought a set of clunky old speakers that I thought looked retro cool (I have a disease where I buy speakers when ever I see them or if I tell myself they need saving!).... Once I got the covers off they turned out to be far more than I could ever have imagined them to be! I took home...

    EPI 100V tweeter issue.

    I have a pair of EPI 100Vs and I think there is a issue with one of the tweeters. I've narrowed it down to the speakers through trying different sources, headphones, etc. I have a Sansui 551 with the loudness on and treble fairly high. One tweeter is definitely not as loud. The sound is still...

    Guy has speaker wire hangups

    Imagine there was a guy, who had a sound system that was evolving quite beautifully over time. Pretty high end stuff, vintage stuff. But the one thing that he felt really cheap about, and confused about, was cables. In particular, speaker wire. Because he never knew whether it was a total rip...

    Are Soundbars the future of speakers for the home?

    I'm interested to hear your thoughts about the benefits of modern day soundbars compared to the days of surround sound speakers and other inventions. For me personally, growing up in the surround sound era, it was a neat little thing to have surround sound to show off to people when they came...

    ADS M9 midrange repair

    I found a pair of ADS M9 speakers in a thrift store for $10. The midranges are both dead, poked out domes, at least one needing a voice coil. Woofers and tweeters are OK. Can I replace the domes on the mids or am I stuck with looking for new drivers?

    Canton Speaker Capacitor and Coil Reference Thread

    I'm posting this thread as a service to other Canton speaker owners that want to recap and like me have found that the Wego caps that Canton used don't have their µF values printed on the cap. Measuring the old caps isn't always useful as some of the caps were made to specific non-standard...

    The title says it all. I love the sound of my old Monitor 7's and I have lovingly recapped and restored them. They are, however, just a bit too big for the space I have. Whatever I replace them with needs to fill a pretty big room. I am thinking about a pair of Monitor 5's (I have a nice pair of...
