Does anyone know where I can find the 1.5" 16 ohm Peerlees alnico tweeters
They are 1.5", paper cone, as in the photos

Bought a pair of Peerless coaxials, and one of the tweeters is dead
I really like the sound of these, so hoping to find a replacement tweeter

FleaBay is one of the few places these may turn up on rare occasion, but the 8 ohm versions are the most common by far as they were used in the popular Rectilinear III speakers in the late 1960's through mid-1970's as the "super tweeters". The slightly larger versions, also used in the Rectilinear III's, were used by speaker manufacturers maybe 100 times more often than the smaller diameter units like you're seeking.

Regular FleaBay searches for "Vintage Tweeter" may yield one some day. Many FleaBay sellers don't have the knowledge to know these tweeters came from Peerless so you have the keep the search as broad as is possible. Good luck.
