    You don't see many '44 Series 2' (Not to be confused with the Mk.2), '442' & especially the '44 Legend' up for grabs..

    I have had a look they are soldered on. I think its working just not as crisp and clear as the other one.

    If you do swap it over & it becomes clearer, you may have a duff Electrolytic within the Midrange 2nd order.. Theres a couple of Elco strapped together & a Single on the board..
    I find it odd the Mid has gone duff.

    Hi

    Maybe they need to be used they have been sat for 10 years plus. The mid is rustaling when pushed in and out. rotated 180 deg still no luck.

    run me by how to swap them over.
