    515B 16ohm vs 515-8G HP

    Hi Gang, I have the option of purchasing a pair of Altec 515-B 16ohm woofers or a pair of 515-8G HP 8ohms woofers. The plan is to use them in an 816 VI 2-way speaker build to go along with my current 511B horns with 808-A 8ohm drivers. Both woofer options poss potential problems? 1. Will the...

    Wharfedale W60 woofers

    Hello, all. I'm very pleased with early two-way ported Wharfedale W60s powered by a modified Magnavox 9303 tube amp, but I go back and forth with a pair of Smaller Advents for the sake of fuller bass. I wish I could add them to the 4 ohm taps on the Edcor OPTs (which have 4, 8 and 16-ohm taps)...

    Thiel CS 1.2 repair

    I just scored a free pair of these speakers. Apparently the previous owner had aggressive cats. One has a woofer surround that is shot. I know there's a guy who rebuilds them, but I'm thinking of getting the replacement from Madison...

    Realistic Nova 5 Speakers Vintage

    Hey, picked these up at auction a while back. Figured out that grilles come off via hidden screws. Thoughts on the woofers? Obviously some dry rot here, how bad is it? Sound is great. Thanks! Francis

    HPM-100 - suddenly way too much bass?

    I've has a pair of HPM-100's for over a decade. Got them cheap, refinished the cabs, rebuild the XO according to the AK recommended spec and replaced one bad driver with a part number match. I've been very happy with the sound! A few months ago, I installed a vintage tube amp. And for some...

    ADS 910 Woofers... ADS, Braun, or neither?

    Hi, my four ADS 910 woofers are numbered\labeled\stamped: 4576, 8 Ohm, 10 4476, 8 Ohm, 10 4376, 8 Ohm, 9 or 6 (the 9 or 6 is circled) See attached pics. I'm pretty certain using the "a/d/s parts schedule 1992 share" on http://sportsbil.com/ads/ that the woofers in my ADS 910's are not ADS...

    Old Speaker Identification - Help!

    Just picked this piece from the local thrift yesterday, Very heavy. Exceptionally well built cabinetry - to the point where I would have to tear the thing apart ot get a look at the backs of the speakers. Sounds pretty great, but there's still some mystery.... - No distinguishing marks...

    B&O M70 Woofers

    I have a blown driver (woofer) in a pair of vintage B&O M70 speakers. Does anyone know where i could find one, two or a suitable substitute. I checked ebay and nothing compatible at this time. Thought maybe someone out there in Audiokarma land might have a spare, or at least some words of...

    Phase Tech fans... how different are the 6.5" woofers?

    I acquired a pair of Phase Technology PC-500s speakers. The 6.5" mid-woofers have suffered a horrible case of foam rot as have the tweeter lenses. (that foam is GROSS! What were they thinking?). This is my 3rd pair of Phase Tech speakers I've played with. So how different are all of the...

    Hi all, new to this. I picked up a pair of Sansui SP-3500s over the weekend for $225 on craigslist. I have them paired with a rebuilt Dynaco ST-70 and I have to say I'm very happy with the purchase. I'm currently deciding on whether I should go with these or a pair of Audioengine HDP6 speakers...

    Shameful Confessions - Speaker Style

    Confessions with Scooter..... Every three years, I seem to get an itch for CVs. I then use them for a few years in a secondary "rock my nuts off" system, but invariably end up selling them to fund some other gear purchase. My first set was a surprisingly good set of A-123 with walnut cabs...
