Need advice - Large Advent Tweeter Look ok?

[OP Music]

I am looking to get a tweeter for one of my Large Advents in which the tweeter is blown. I'm looking at a specific listing on eBay - http://www.ebay.com/itm/ONE-VINTAGE...f82f488:g:gc0AAOSwAuZX4YNi&autorefresh=truewe

Everything looks great, the only thing that is weirding me out is the orientation of the wood block holding the tweeter to the metal back. All the tweeters I've seen coming out of the Larger Advents have the offset orientation, where as this one is much more subtle. Is this something I should be worried about?

Thanks for your time guys.

Best Regards, Al

Also, I don't see the two lines of tape on either side of the tweeter, or the two metal contacts coming out.

Are you looking for a tweeter for an Original large Advent or a New Large Advent? The tweeters were slightly different. I agree that the tweeter in question looks odd. The rotational angle is off, and as mentioned, there is no black tape covering the wires. It looks like it was altered in some way.

Sorry I should have specified. I have old larger advents. The difference of the tweeters between old and new is pretty stark; this one is for the older style, I'm sure.

I have one of each right in front of me. It resembles the OLA tweeter, but something is amiss.

By the way, links to ebay are only allowed in Dollars and Sense. Don't be surprised if this thread gets moved, unless you delete the link and only post the photo.

Yeah, I looked at all 4 my tweeters and they all have the same orientation, pieces of tape and metal contacts. I'm not sure what to think haha
