Speaker Asylum General speaker questions for audio and home theater. |
|
I've been going through my the audio collection of my brother who died tragically earlier this year, and one thing he had was a pair of 1970s ESS Heil air motion transformer tweeters. He worked for a speaker repair company at one point, so he had accumulated various odds and ends. These are the ones with round black mounting flanges. They may be Model 5 tweeters, or was that the name of the speaker they were used in?Long ago, as an experiment, he stuck them in a pair of generic speaker boxes, but it's an experiment that obviously didn't work out, so they were just put away.
I have done some speaker building and modification, and I was wondering how these might best be used. I don't know that much about their power handling. If one were to be damaged, are they at all repairable, or would that pretty much be the end of them?
I haven't contacted the current incarnation of ESS. Don't know if they'd have specs or other documentation.
