Hope this is in the right place!
Here goes; I have acquired a set of Bang & Olufsen BEOVOX 5702 speakers as part of a job lot at auction. Was bidding on the other item and didn't really know much about these speakers. I instantly stuck them for sale on gumtree and got a couple of hits straight away requesting details on the condition. I opened them up and the bass cones were rotted away. On opening I obviously found out they have the Celestion HF2000 and the MD500 tweeters inside.
I am guessing the owner of these originally was a serious collector as the reel2reel I got was in mint condition and the exterior of these cabs isn't too bad. So well looked after.
I have taken these out with the view to getting rid of them on ebay but need to test them. (I have a multimeter) I am a little unsure of what I am doing though. So any advice or what to look out for is appreciated. I did try already but got less than 8ohms on the HF2000's and around 9 ohms on the MD500s. This is presuming I am testing these correctly...
On a different note, in my cupboard I have a ditton 25 and a ditton 44 (unpaired). Maybe I should just make a hybrid speaker out of the parts somehow? Or maybe get shot of the lot and reclaim the space!
Any words of wisdom gratefully received!
Cheers
P.S Also acquired was the 3702's
