    • Hi everyone, it's been a few days since my last post, but I have some news to share. I finally decided to do two things. You might remember that I suspected the tweeters' ferrofluid was the problem. One of those things was to disassemble the tweeters to verify that the ferrofluid was indeed completely dry. I cleaned them as the tutorials indicate. The voice coil and domes appeared to be in perfect condition. I bought the ferrofluid on eBay. It hasn't arrived yet. The second thing I did was remove the crossover and find that it had been completely rebuilt and modified with some audiophile-grade capacitors. It's very possible this work was done in Argentina. I'll show you photos of what I found. Overall, they sound fantastic, but the tweeters are a bit recessed and dull. If it's not the ferrofluid problem, then I should check the crossover.
    • Welcome to TCS - glad you found us!
    • I still hope to come up with a pair of 3.3, someday.  but now they are 20+ years old..., so the next question will be how to rebuild/restore/repair if needed. 😉
