brob777 Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Picked up a pair of OLA at an estate sale. To my untrained eye they looked to be in good physical shape. After getting them home and doing some research, it appears the woofers have been replaced. Obviously not the masonite ring woofers, and they are different than the 2nd gen steel ring woofers. Anyone have an idea what brand/type these woofers may be without taking them out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessiAV Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 No clue about those drivers. Good used original OLA woofers will bring these back to their former glory, and are usually affordable. While Simply Speakers sells a new replacement, those reportedly do not sound or measure the same as the factory ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug G. Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Nope. Take them out and see what it says on the back of the magnets, if anything. Somebody made those black adapters to make them fit in the openings. Hopefully, they didn't alter the original openings so genuine replacements can be dropped in. I would estimate those to have been made in late 1974 or early 1975. Any dates on the tweeters? Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 They look like Advent Legacy woofers with very large replacement dust caps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
