    Wondering if you needed to update the internal crossover, where I would expect there would be a capacitor or two which, if there are, would likely need replacing. And if you did how did you open the speaker cover?

    No needed work on the crossovers.
    Vince at Galaxie electronics in Pittsburg, PA replaced the capacitors for me.
    He did a perfect job, Vince is THE BEST when needing work done!
    Thanks for your interest. The speakers are fantastic. Great mids and highs.
    Powered by a Sansui 3000A…vintage sound man, the best.
