I think they are original drivers. They are all alnico and fit perfectly. The woofers surrounds have deteriorated, so i hope that a traditional foam surround will fix them. See the picture.

Other side of woofer
New foam from PartsExpress or other suppliers should do the trick. The driver is a bit ugly, but as long as it still has structure, it should work fine. I would also update the capacitor crossover (unless that is an oil cap. It looks like an electrolytic. Have fun!

Hi Makescopes, after seeing those pictures you should talk to 1973 and ask him if you could borrow his shovel. Then bury them. Spend your time on the amp......Mark K.
Currently, I am running them on an HK a401 (18 wpc) which is probably too much for them. Any ideas on a good small tube amp that will work?
Just about any good tube amp will do. You could also try Bold Eagle's resistor trick on the HK and it should work very well. Just don't put the receiver into hard clipping or you will blow the tweeters.
