Looking for replacement JVC Tweeter

zoombies · 17th May 2004, 05:49 AM

Sorry for the lack of info, anyways, they are a pair of older jvc floor units, have 12" woofers, maybe 4-5" mid and 2-1/4" tweeter. The tweeter is 12.5 ohm, and has a part number on it, HSA0633-01A. The cabinet has a 3 inch cutout to fit the tweeter, and I'm only looking for something that will suitably replace it, not necessarily the exact one. I'm doing this for a friends pair of speakers, I assume he'd want it done as inexpensively as possible. Oh, yes, the floor speakers had a rating of 125w music power, so maybe that'll help if anyone knows the older models well. Well, anyone know of a suitable replacement? thanks.

I would check out partsexpress.com and just pick a cone tweeter that seems most like the one you are replacing.

try a pair of these (not good to simply replace one):

You could add a 4 ohm series resistor if they are too bright.

Excellent, I actually have a copy of the parts express catalog, but I didn't see those, they should do nicely. One small question though, What wattage rating should I choose for the series resistor? Would a 10-20 Watt non-inductive do the job? I could order a set of those along with the speakers then. thanks.

a 5W wirewound will be fine, (and cheap),
