  1. I installed the foam surround yesterday and let it set up overnight. I also replaced the capacitors while had the speakers torn apart. I finished getting the speakers back together and hooked them up. They sound amazing! I'll post some pics when I figure out how to.
  2. Thank you JKent! I cleaned the control pots, and the tweeter and mid work now. The woofers do match. I ordered a foam surround kit. I going to try to repair myself. I appreciate the help!
  3. Yes. It does. The other speaker's tweeter and mid do not work. I swapped the woofers between the two. One speaker now sounds awesome. The bad woofers is stamped as AR-5. The other is marked AR2ax. Are they the same woofer?
  4. I just bought a set of AR5's off of eBay. One of the speakers sounds scratchy when the volume is low. I took the grill off and the woofer has a new surround, albeit very sloppily done. I gently pressed near the the top of the woofer and the scratchiness is gone. Speaker's DC resistance measured 6.1 ohms. Is the woofer blown, should I try replacing the surround, or something else?
