    KEF 103.2 tweeter cleaning

    The dome tweeters on my KEF 103.2 are really dusty. Is it worth trying to clean each of them off? If so, what is the best way to go about this? Or should I not think of touching them? Jim.

    Thanks for the tweeters w1jim!

    w1jim was a top notch guy, he even took the time to send the tweeters from abroad on a business trip to Europe which actually made the deal possible since I am in Europe. Thanks!

    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...

    B&W Matrix 803 series 1

    So today I got myself a pair of massive B&W floorstanders which look like they had a very, very rough life at the hands of people who did not care for good quality speakers which they are supposed to be. Unfortunately I was not informed about the missing tweeters which seem to be kind of...

    KLH 20 dead tweeter, modern replacement?

    Hi, I am a new member here, but have read the forums for some time when cruising junk stores for vintage gear. As fate would have it, I lucked into a Pioneer SA-9100 for peanuts a few days ago and found a pair of KLH 20's in a nearby thrift store. Well, I did the Parts Express Shuffle and...

    KG4 tweeter wire polarity

    I'm replacing the diaphragms in my tweeters and noticed the wiring looked reversed on one of them. On one, I have a white wire and one with a red stripe. The other speaker, white and one with a black stripe. Is the striped wire positive or neg? One of them had to have been wrong. And help on...

    Replacement for Dynaudio D28AF Tweeter

    Does anyone have any recommendations for replacing a Dynaudio D28AF tweeter? The tweeters in my Thiel CS3.5 speakers have developed some distortion. I am not sure if the voice coil is blown, needs the ferrofluid replaced, or if the dimples in the dome are causing this distortion. A Google search...

    Wanted: NHT ac2 tweeters or suitable replacement

    Need some NHT 11-050-1 tweeters for repairs. Variant of SEAS 25 TAFN neodymium with small outer bezel step for rear mounting. As used in AC1/2 centers and later VT/VC/VR series speakers.

    Tweeter Repair

    Hi all, I have finally obtained a pair of the Walsh tweeters to get my Infinity Monitor II's up and running! Only problem is that one fired up just fine when soldered but the other did not. I was really bummed because I spent $100 on the pair. On further inspection of the one that does not...

    Jensen Spectrum 530

    Hello! I have a pair of these speakers, but one of the tweeters is blown. Does anybody know of a replacement tweeter that will fit/work? I can't find much on them, but it looks like it's a Jensen E-400 tweeter aka fried egg tweeter. Could be wrong, but this is what I've been able to find. Any...

    Advent "fried egg" tweeter questions

    I have a pair of the Advent tweeters I am considering selling. These are the green "fried egg" style. When I flirted with owning a pair of Small Advents (or whatever they were called), the highs were somewhat muffled, to the point of immediately pulling these out and puting in some spare cloth...

    Need Help Troubleshooting Bose 601 Series I speakers - tweeters silent.

    Hi everyone , first post here. I recently went to show the great direct reflect design to a friend, opening the top cover only to notice no sound from either left or right speaker tweeters. Woofers working fine. I read around and thought maybe the Tweeter protection Lamps were blown. I...

    How to Re-Dope Snell Tonegen/Foster Tweeters (Model E, J, K; gens. I & II)

    In doing this project I couldn't find any real picture guides so I thought I'd make one. My intention is to show how easy this is to do - if you have Snell speakers with cracked tweeter doping, don't worry! It's very easy to fix as I'll explain. Now, I haven't taken measurements and I'm not...

    SEMIT Substitutes? My Kappa 9's need one.

    Since my Kappa 9's have a blown Semit, and trying to find one is proving impossible, I was thinking of swapping both out for a pair of Soft Dome's, like the Infinity REF-075tx car audio tweeters. I figure I could easily market the good one to pay for those(I'm not offering it, Mr. Moderator) if...

    Design Acoustics D-6 Rat Habitat Edition (restore log)

    Well I restored a pair of these earlier and they turned out very nicely. So I thought I couldn't go wrong with another pair. Well this pair is in a bit rougher shape. Yes that is what you think it is. Rat poop and half eaten seeds. These speakers would be like a rat dream home though...

    Mini Advent Tweeter with de-bonded magnet -- reasonable repair?

    Hey all, I have a pair of Mini Advents that I acquired for free as part of a purchase of a nice pair of New Large Advents (A4) a while back. They had blasted foam surrounds on the little 5" woofers, but I ordered some replacements from Rick Cobb. I had some free time this weekend and finally...

    Back view of a tweeter from Coral BX-1001

    Coral BX-1001 tweeter. Kind of neat, as it appears to be mounted in a tin can. Saving this for a rainy day project. Have you seen the "mids" in this particular speaker? No? Consider yourself lucky.
