FS: Pioneer B20 (BOFU) and Dayton 3/4 inch tweeters

Fast1one · 9th April 2009, 01:39 AM

I had these in half changs with wonderful results. Obviously they are not the most detailed, but man were they smooth. Could listen to them for HOURS. Probably going to regret selling them, but Oh well. Great extension in those cabinets. Tweeters were used with an L-Pad and 2uF cap with great results. They will be included with the sell.

The speakers themselves have some flaws. One of the speakers has some crinkling on the whizzer. The same driver has a dented dustcap (love children

) Also I believe that same driver has a tiny hole in the surround. Both driers were given a light coat of Modge Podge, which I found improved the midrange with a slight loss in upper extension. Plus I wanted to protect the driver from rotting.

Asking 50USD +shipping for all four pieces. The whole set is ~76 new plus shipping.

As you can see they had the 50 cent mod with the foam behind the whizzer. I removed it because it was ugly and I never got around to replacing it. I will see that I definitely recommend it. Removed the "nasely" sound of female vocals.

And no, I wasn't using those Sony speakers

Cheers!

could you give a little more detail such as power handling, impedance... please

Sold pending payment.

As far as the above question, these things are tanks and can definitely take a beating. Thermal power handling should be plenty, mechanically these almost ran out of excursion in the half chang with deep bass passages. That was at full power (30w) per channel
