How odd to come here at this time but am grateful for the experience and knowledge. I have owned a a pair of Forte's since the mid eighties - love them and need nothing more till I die. My hearing is not what it used to be but wonder if the caps and resistors might be worn after decades of really loud music. My Q is, might they perk up with a new set of resistors. I still have some hearing left to lose.

 

Thanks everyone, Adam

I used to own the Original Forte's

Resistors are usually OK, even after many years.

However, the Capacitors do go bad, especially if the original ones were electrolytic types.

Welcome Adam, nice speakers. There's a rumor about a new Forte IV coming out.
