welcome
1- Micheal Savuto is one of the most qualified experts in the country, I know him well-great guy
2- I have the same speakers and they are my favorite thing I own. These speakers are amazing
3- You will need to have the amps (tube servo amps?) serviced all caps replaced, tube sockets replaced, power supply replaced, and fuse holder replaced, and thats the minimum. Your looking at lots and lots of cash your going to have to spend just to get them working
4- Im in Houston too.
5- if the mylar is taught you should be fine, if not your done. You can try a hair dryer to tighten up the tension but if its saggy they are done.
6- as far as cleaning them, um I guess a qtip some 409 and lots and lots of time and patience
7- good luck you will need it
