Dynaco A25 Surrounds

I just got a pair of Dynaco's, and they need new surrounds. It looks like the foam is cracked. Most places on line say that they only used rubber surrounds. Did they ever use foam? Back of the speakers say Dynaco Options A25 Made in USA. Black, with a sock for a grill. It stays in place in a groove. 2 way with a port. I will try to post pics later. Badge on the grill sock says Dynaco

That's not an original A25, maybe something by one of the several companies who owned the Dynaco name after the original company disappeared.
 
They only sounded ok, and I just pulled a woofer and it says made in Taiwan. The crossover looked to be just a capacitor attached to the speakers wires inside the cab. I was hoping to hear what everyone raves about, but will probably put them back to the thrifts or curbside.
Thanks for the info.
 
The actual A-25 isn't much more complex than that. Two drivers, a rotating switch, and a very simple crossover in a ply box with a aperiodic port. Very simple.

This is what you're looking for.

BTW - They're wonderful speakers.
 
No adjusting knob on these. Just speaker hook ups on back. Oh well. Bought on impulse because I had heard good things, didn't pay much so no great loss.
 
They are fakes. I've seen some modern speakers on ebay with the Dynaco name that looked like crap speakers. Maybe that's what you have?
 
You'll also see a lot of "KLH" speakers made long after the glory days with Henry Kloss.
Use to see them at places like Lowes. Uh-huh. Lowes. They were truely horrid too.
 
Too bad they're not the real deal. I restored a pair a while ago and while they are not exactly my cup of tea, I understand why some like them so much.

It would be interesting if you could post some pictures of them to see what we're dealing with here.

What's worse, I own three pairs of those.
