Does anyone want some original AR 2ax grille cloth?
reza replied to tommost's topic in Acoustic Research

None who will have any idea about AR's specifically

Hi I'm in the UK (Dorset) I can refoam your woofers for free if needed , obv you will need refoam kit, cheapest for us are from a company in Holland, are the mids and tweeters working ? are the adjustable pots on the back movable or corroded stuck , new grille covers are easy enough to do message me if needed Gary

They are original , they were an option as against linen , these above came from a pair of 2AX's I picked up here in UK I changed them
-
refoamed recapped new grilles the bad news , collect Dorset UK , so doubt if any takers here ... 150gbp

ok so I swapped the Euro 2AX's woofers, the ones in the lower photo above, into the US cabinets and then tried the top ones in the Euro cabinets, and either way the lower larger magnet ones sound better than the other woofers , more bass more presence far better ? fwiw I refoamed both pairs
-
so in the US 2AX's the woofers are these and in the Euro 2AX's the woofers are these , is there any difference is one better than the other ?
-
so picked up what I though were early 2ax's , primarily because I prefer US cabinets, but to me the tweeters are the same as late 2ax's so are they US late 2ax's ? more refoaming , I know and they came with these lovely (not) orangey brown grille covers
