tigerwoodKhorns Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Easy question for those that know. If you use a 9v battery to test, the + on the battery to + on the driver will cause it to go out, correct? Not much use for a compression driver but good to know.

Connect some test leads from a 9V battery to the speaker terminals, but do it momentarily (tap, tap,...); don't clip them on and leave them on. With the "+" of the battery connected to the "+" on the woofer, you can verify it moves the driver out. You want the same direction of movement with all three drivers. Of course, with the tweeter you'll have to remove it from the horn to see. I don't know how much travel you'll see with the tweeter, but it's a valid test.
