Replacement for Celestion HF1000

mcai7et2 · 30th October 2003, 04:03 PM

I picked up a pair of scarily cheap Rogers LS7 speakers yesterday, but one of the tweeters is shagged. I would like to replace them both with new modern designs but do not know where to start looking for the appropriate specs.

Celestion stopped making these tweeters ages ago, and a google search reveals nothing. Any ideas?

Cheers,

Ed

This is a variation on an old theme. You're going to have a lot of trouble matching new tweeters to the crossover and low frequency drivers.
You might want to consider buying a new pair of decent tweeters (Scan-Speak, Audax, whatever floats your boat) and biamping, thus sidestepping the pesky redesign of the passive crossover.
