Default What is this?

One of these is burnt and needs replacing so Ii thought I would go ahead and replace both. Thing is I don't know exactly what they are.

By the way, this is from a 6x6 Peavey tweeter. I just checked the tweeters and I can't get any reading them at all with my multimeter so now I will be replacing them too.

51 ohm, 5% tolerance carbon-composition resistors.

Resistor color band calc here: http://www.dannyg.com/examples/res2/resistor.htm

Replacements are available from Digi-Key, Antique Electronics Supply, PartsConnexion, Mouser, all those kind of places.

And you can also always contact customer service at Peavey for any answers, and they will sell you the exact parts, tweeters, diaphragms whatever to support their products.

Your photo doesn;t work for me.

The speakers might be piezoelectric. Try connecting an amplifier and check for sound.

The tweeters are indeed Piezo I called Peavey and they wanted $13 a piece for the diaphragms to replace them. I found some on MCM/Newark for $1.99 and I just got finished installing them. Works fine.

Glowbug,
could a wire wound resistor be used as a sub?

Yes, just make sure they're non-inductive
