I just bought a pair of these. Can someone tell me how to tell the difference between the early and later model with the different tweeter?

  Search for "Bolero" on this forum; there are many posts. Here's one I started.
  
  The original tweeter is pretty fragile.

  The 890B has a 300G multicell horn, the 890C has a one-piece horn.

    OK thanks I didn't know if the 890c had several different tweeters. Picking them up this weekend. I am going to put them in a second system with a Don Allen PP 6v6 amp and a sony playstation scph-1001.
