Hi folks, Thanks for the responses. I got the cabinets open. Like time capsules from 1978... never opened before. I am not good with a soldering iron, so I will likely be sending them to you, Deang. The crossovers are "type E" crossovers. Any tips for packing them for shipping? Seems like all of the wiring is still pretty good. I like the idea of flipping the woofers and 86ing the speaker terminals. I never did like them. I was noticing the current Heresy version has a port in the rear. Anyone try this with an older version? Or, would this mess with the older crossovers? I was surprised to not see any damping fabric inside the speakers. If I try this, what is recommended? The finish (WO) is till in good shape. I oiled them with linseed oil about a year ago. I would likely just refresh this. Thanks! Scott

I am the original owner of a 1978 pair of Heresy speakers. They are in very near mint condition on the outside, but are sounding a little more harsher these days. I am looking to replace the crossover caps as they are still the original configuration. A few questions for this learned group... What caps are best to use. Expected expense of replacing? Since I will be working to make these sing nicely once again, is there anything else, maintenance wise, I should be doing to them? Thanks!
