    New drivers for vintage original mission 770

    So if I was to change the interior wireing with a high silver content would that be too far from the original. A Jaguar E type for e.g. if I was to fill the tank with a higher combusting fuel, still original right. My kreping the originality of the speakers is to maintain spec, parts on...

    New drivers for vintage original mission 770

    Impeccable sarcasm, well done. So your question is what exactly? So I will make all internal joints air tight with some kind of silicone/bonding try to smoothen of the right angles. Need to clean the tweeters, the old ferrofluid gunk must have been why they stopped working. I will give...

    New drivers for vintage original mission 770

    Hello. I have read that the mission 737r has the most up to date woffer of the same 770's. Can I just replace into 770 speakers without any issue regarding the crossover? At the moment crossover is working. The h211 seas tweeter has dried and doesn't work so I am using some small middy system...

    JPW SONATA SPEAKERS, ideas for longevity and sound quality improvement

    Results Thay work, first time had sound through them for say 20 years dunno. Got some sort of rattle inside so will have to tie everything down. Maybe I should send the tweeter back home to its original cab. Could I leave this hole for the tweeter in the JPW open, get some plumbing plastic...

    JPW SONATA SPEAKERS, ideas for longevity and sound quality improvement

    Ok just around the sides and back then. Not pack it in densely is that what your saying? I think the tweeter will be fine, im not aiming for giant killer speakers just something nice. It was reading posts that you commented on regarding this exact topic, The Sonatas. .

    JPW SONATA SPEAKERS, ideas for longevity and sound quality improvement

    Its a resistor 2.7 I can see from the kenwood and in the JPW is more of a proper crossover more complex. I will give it a go anyway. Dampening material is more or less better. And where to fill the material? Arround the sides or back or all over at what density loose or packed? Thanks
