Nice workmanship .............. is that solid wood over plywood or pressedwood?

Too bad they are not mirrored!

I couldn't care less sonically, but it would bug be whenever I looked at them if I owned them myself.

 

[stereocuuple]

it may depending on placement make a great deal of dif. edege diffraction ,lobing and alignment are all good reasons to mirror

innerestin'... two Philips tweeters and an SP12C; can the tweeters possibly keep up (in terms of sensitivity)?

Solid wood

I can't find the T35A tweeters. The other speakers look to be SP12B.

Judging by the silvery, more modern EV logo, those are SP12C not SP12B.

The tweeters in the photo are Philips polycarbonate domes, maybe either AD 0160 T8 (or T4) or AD 0163

I just did a search on the T35A , differently not in those speakers.

The person I got them from, gave me the build sheet and the T35A is listed as the tweeter.

Go figure

I thought those tweeters looked familiar mmhardy6647 got it- As I recall they're 90 db sensitivity,and rated around 20W over 2K,with a 12db crossover.
:scratch2:.. but I'm trying to recall the good ol' daze of studying worn out dog-eared McGee's catalogs.At any rate - pretty neat pair of speakers to enjoy!
