I'm restoring a pair of KLH model 6 speakers and I'm looking for an original Tweeter . If anyone has one they are will to part with I'd love to purchase it. Also if anyone could recommend a good set to replace these with in case I cannot find an original I'd appreciate any input thanks.

As far as asking about what a suitable replacement might be that's fine.

tubed raises a good point. Frequently (I might even say "usually") the problem with KLH tweeters is the crossover. If you have one working and one not, swap the tweeters between the cabinets and see if the problem stays with the cabinet or moves with the tweeter. If the latter then you need a replacement tweeter. If the former, then you need to recap the crossovers (yes, you should do both of them). Actually, you should recap them either way, since these capacitors are known to age badly.

I repaired my original klh tweeters that didn't work when I plugged it in. I bypassed the crossover to test and they were working. Caps were bad in both speakers and worked fine after replacing caps.
