Technics SB-X5 ? Help

[istari_knight]

james, i have the sb-x5 and the sb-x1 and the tweeters are different they look the same but have a different part number ,does the service manual suggest that they are the same? i only ask as i bought the sb-x1 for spare tweeters in case i ever fry the ones in the sb-x5 , mind you the sb-x1 are rather good and it would be criminal to use them for spares.

They certainly look the same [minus the lens] but without measuring the voice coil impedance its impossible to say... The service manuals show they both share a near identical HF crossover which would indicate they have the same specifications [impedance/sensitivity etc.]

I'd say if it fits then use it
