Do we have any owners on here or enthusiasts of the speakers that may be able to answer a question or 2 ?

Cheers

Got all the bits you needed yet Andy?

Do yours use the Acoustic Research AR6 bass drivers as in the original model? They were uncoated, later ones had a Plastiflex doping and were of a different type I believe.

I’m not in any need of any bits mate , they are working fine , I will take a closer look at them this weekend and let you which drivers they have , I was wondering about the pairs thing , as in are they the same or were there left and right speakers ( I know they were not always sold in pairs) so the tweeters are both in the same places on the baffles .
