I always thought the Angelus could use more robust drivers. Mine seemed somewhat distressed when pushed. Very unique and interesting design that did a decent disappearing act in the listening room. My electrostatic loving friend once said it was the only box ( if you want to call it that) speaker he could live with. Good luck on your project.

Thanks! I agree with you about the drivers and believe there exist much better drivers today than came with the original speaker. Also I think I can do much better (with the help of a speaker designer friend) on the crossover. The cabinet also will need some internal bracing. I have to do something soon as my wife keeps asking me why I kept those hideous speaker cabinets.
As I've said, good luck on what will be a challenging project. Glad you have a friend in tow for the x-over redesign. For what it's worth, I really like the Hiquephon tweeters in my SongTowers. That said, a plethora of drivers out there that might work quite well and still retain the disappearing act the Angelus was known for.
