At the price point there was little to compare them to. Nice, if not extended, highs. Exceptionally good midrange, and lots of punch. Put them with a high quality amp and they really sing. I'm thrilled to see someone bring them back to their full potential!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1942841446523709093.post-73769547751202726542022-11-27T12:33:27.096-06:002022-11-27T12:33:27.096-06:00Hi Andrew, the link for the replacement tweeters i...Hi Andrew, the link for the replacement tweeters is below. Just make sure that you are ordering the same impedance (4 or 8 Ohms) as your original tweeters. https://www.midwestspeakerrepair.com/shop/home-audio/tweeters/cone/mw-audio-mt-4107-phenolic-cone-tweeter-2/Oleg's Vintage Audiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218870977701943823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1942841446523709093.post-55118236073305968542022-11-27T07:14:09.731-06:002022-11-27T07:14:09.731-06:00Having a hard time finding the replacement tweeter...Having a hard time finding the replacement tweeters (I have te same 1.5 model) The PN listed does not come up on their site.

I was skeptical about their performance but read a lot of good reviews online and bought them when I had a chance. IMHO, these are very underrated speakers from the 70's.Oleg's Vintage Audiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218870977701943823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1942841446523709093.post-51854342012282315622022-09-05T14:31:38.508-05:002022-09-05T14:31:38.508-05:00Very nice!

My wife bought them brand new back in the late 70s and she had them in her living room when I met her. One of the reasons I fell in love with her, probably! Anyway, I hooked them up to an old Harman/Kardon AVR20 II I had lying around and man, oh man, I had forgotten just how great these things sound. I pulled them out of the closet thinking I was going to try to sell them along with the HK but now I am having second thoughts. I think we are going to try to find a room to put them instead.johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943151209409795789noreply@blogger.com
