I think I've snagged a pair of these at a fair price. The seller, a friend of a friend, says they sound great but make occasional popping sounds when driven hard.
I used to own 63s but they didn't have any problems and in any case are protected. 57s have no protection as any fule kno.
How much of a prob is this likely to be? Is it just that they are being overdriven and the guy is neatly punching small holes in the Mylar, or are they on the way out? AFAIK they have never been serviced so the innards could be old by now. WHat's the cost of a typical refurb these days?
Thanks
