ADS L2030 Restoration

Hi presscot,

Honestly, I've never seen one yet. Seen some for L1230's, L1530's but never the L2030's. Most owners I've spoken to over the years just sent theirs into Richard So. But hey, never say never. I'm watching this thread, so if someone posts one! (?), I'm sure they'll be a few interested.
 
Hello, does anyone have the crossover schematics of the L2030 speakers?
I found the attached basic schemes in my notes. Unfortunately, I don’t believe these sketches are for the L2030. The L2030s have two xover assemblies; one on the back of the cabinet and one on the front with the line/source, mid and high toggle switches. I have photos of the back assembly but not the front. I believe all the inductors and capacitors are on the back xover assembly. Let me know if you need any of the photos.

We do have a decent scan of the 2030 owner's manual in company archives. It's too big to post as a linked file but I can email it to anyone that needs a copy. Just hit me up using the Conversations option.

Read the whole thing, Amazing!!! One question - did you replace the electrolytic cap with another kind. (I did on my 1290s, didn't mount professionally inside, but I wanted that upgrade)

This seller has about 50,000 items for sale, and the few items I
checked, appear to follow the same format. The item is presented
as on auction, but in the description you are referred to another
page that is buy it now. It's also in the format
www.ebay.com.17409162.shop/CT/Wxxxxx or
www.ebay.com.17409162.sbs/CT/Wxxxxx
Items appear to be located all over the US.

Yesterday, they had AR-1s for sale and following the link led to a
$2000 BIN. Now none of the reference pages will load.

Not sayin' it's a scam but my Spidey sense is tingling...
