HiYaAll,
I've just purchased a pair of Cornwall 1983 CBR I.5's in ex shape.
I've got the K77M tweet; K51V mid and K33E woof w/ B2 xover.
I've ordered from Crites the replacement caps to get rid of the oil cans. Visually they're fine. The speakers sound very good. The bass and mid are outstanding; overall good balance w/o having to equalize anything. but I feel I could get a tad better tweet. However, I suspect after 27 years there's prolly some degradation and maybe all is needed is caps to freshen the top.
I'm tossing around the idea of r/r the 77m's or go with w/CT 125's. I understand that it's a direct replacement.
So my ques are:
Is it a good idea to r/r the caps? My thoughts are that after cap replacement maybe the 77M's will come alive and I might not need the 125's.
Should I just r/r the 77's diagphram?
Will the 125's work well with the CW B2?
I don't want too over listen the tweet.
I also don't want to screw with it so as it effects the resale value... I can keep orig parts is vac sealed bag.
Overall do I have a decent driver setup?
sorry about all the Q's it's my ADHD lol
Please help .. newbie here ...All opinions welcome!
BTW, to freshen the cab's I'm going to clean/wipe the raw birch with aceone then hit it with some 0000 steel wool.
This is my xmas pres.. won't fit under the tree .or chimney . lol
Merry Christmas
Ronnie
