how much can they take - Page 2

Sad sad sad!Same occurred to my vintage Kenwoods , same age , same price ,same damaged mid-treble. Luckily the drivers were double on every cabinet , so I arranged to make them work in a 16 Ohm configuration , using two amplifiers and an electronic crossover . I would follow Glowbug's advice , i would be tempted to buy planar tweeters...
A first check at the crossover to calculate the predictable crossover frequency , and the choice of drivers would be done in few minutes.
Bye

Yeah, once you get near 3/4 volume (usually over 1/2) clipping prevails and tweeters die. Shortly thereafter midranges die.

Maybe there is a high frequency fuse in the speaker for this purpose?
