  1. It does appear to be fibreglass but its actually a very soft fill, similar to the blue grey polyester euro type. RichardC, your 25's cleaned up nicely and I think look great with the new grills. Good luck on starting the refoam, we'll be here to guide you through.
  2. IARrybody, I really like how you've added the L-pad to these. It's something I'd wondered doing about if I had a poly cap in place of lytic that could benefit from attenuation. I picked up a pair of 25's for dirt cheap just for a spare tweeter. They are missing the original woffers and baffle openings have been hacked a little. But maybe I'll resurrect them some day. Just weighed the fill and I got 7.1 oz Ben
  3. Just a quick mention from me, I did measure my Sprauge cap with both a low cost ESR meter and my Fluke, while I actually do think the ESR meter can measure esr okay (based only upon comparing various resistor measurements of my ESR meter and my Fluke, they were almost identical), however capacitor readings were off compared to the Fluke and of which I'll trust. I find it interesting also that you have the rheostat and the woofer with cap/resistor setup, cool keep up the good work. Ben
  4. Hello all, Thought I might jump in on this thread as I've just recently bought a nice pair of the Australian version (?) AR6. It won't be until a week or two until then arrive home but I'm told (and praying) that they are all original, aside from the refoam. They are in nice shape and FYI I paid $230 AUD, I'll have to pay for shipping (100 +/-) but all in all I'm happy. Can those who've listened to the last crossover version, that being the full range woffer with no cap or inductor and the earlier version(s) mind sharing their thoughts on what they heard? I may consider this if it is worthwhile and I have the correct components to do so. Gabriel, how are your 6's coming along? Cheers Ben
