Assuming connections between crossover and drivers are sound then it has to mean that some part(s) of the crossovers are shagged. You know the drivers are okay so what else can it be? There isn't anything else.Originally Posted by 09mike69

There is the unknown cap glued to the baffle. And the fact its the same on both speakers.
I agree with the shagged cap approach but because they have been messed with I'm concerned what may have caused the problem.
Why the inline cap on the baffle, spoke to falcon acoustics and they had not seen or heard of it on these speakers.
And no caps on the speaker terminal or tone switch.

caps would i guess be put there either to protect tweeter or to limit its response(or both)

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Looks like a resistor to me.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

That screw is where the knob used to be so it's be removed by the modders. Also I don't think they are TLS80s from the label they are probably the earlier Transmission Line Loudspeaker I think they were called.

My thought too, removed the tone switch and put an inline resistor on the tweeter,
Still can't figure out why the tweeters won't work in situ.
Cheers

Ok so I removed the resistor and both tweets are now producing sound.
Sounded a tad low but I'll get a better idea when I reconnect the speaker units and have a listen.
Thanks for all replies, and I'll post back when I've had chance to put them back together and had a listen.
Cheers
Mike.

What's the value of the resistor? It's normally about 1-2 ohm to reduce the treble level (in series). Much higher would explain the issue. Although why anyone would want to add it in the first place is a mystery.

I don't know I'd have to measure it, there's no value marked on it.
I won't replace it.
Hopefully get time today to get them up and running.
