Picked these and some advents up from an awesome gentleman who I originally went to buy a box of reel to reel tapes from, couldn't pass up the deal which was $100 for both.(I may be bragging a little here, I've searched for a deal on good speakers hard for a few years before luck finally shone upon me) they both just need refoaming (and maybe caps)
The twist, they have University Mid Ts in place of the original tweeters, From what I gather it's a pretty well regarded horn, I think it should be a pretty interesting combo when I finally get them fixed up. Cabs are near me mint, one small little dent on the trim by the bottom of the grill on one or them
The woofer surrounds are apparently an odd size, thought I found some that would fit after a lot of searching, they were Chinese so I was skeptical, came today and they were thick rubber and 1/4in off on the inside roll. I decided it's gonna be a no to using cheap Chinese stuff after that, so I emailed, I believe his name was Paul, at Springfield speaker earlier tonight. Hopefully he can help me get the proper surrounds. I know I should probably do the caps on these too, I'll need to set up a stand out in the driveway to get inside and see what I need for replacements because these are absolutely stuffed with itchy yellow insulation. Unless any of you fine folks can help me out there.
Curious what people think of the modification these went through, whoever put them in did a good job of it.
