Hi Neo,
Yes I agree it weird that someone did not bypass the mid fuse if they went inside the panel. I think bearing in mind the mid fuse is not bypassed its highyl unliekly teh tweeter fuse is.
There obviously is something over the attenuation slots, - either a short or a resistor, - perhaps they accidentily put two wrong odd value resistors there (I know its unlikely though!) but you never knew. Will find out tongith for sure.
I agree measureing the ribbon is likely to tell me very little, - I need to test some other wayit, - swapping the tweeters from speaker to speaker is too much work. In my post to Satie today I suggest desoldering the wires and hooking each tweeter directly to a tube power amp to test (with HP signal from my Behringer), - then I can hear if there is any differenc in the HF response of each. I could put a cap in series to prevent oscillation, and just try a low volume test. If there is still a difference then the problem is obviously definitely with one of the tweeters and not the components in the crossover.
I've not taken a tweeter out of one of these before, - do you know if its possible to access and desolder the tweeter wires without having to actually take the tweeter part way out of the speaker?Thanks again for you help,
Cheers,
Colin
