X-over Break In Period
01 October 2011 - 09:19 PM
Just finished the restoration wiring in my AR3a's and wanted to have a listen to the mids and tweets before closing them up. I double checked all the wiring to make sure I got everything right. The woofer is sitting vertically on top of a milk crate just below the box (wired up). I am running an Adcom GFA 5400 (125WPC) with the preamp in mono mode. One speaker is an AR3a and the other is a Large Advent. I realize that the AR is 4 ohms and the LA is 8 ohms. I know some will say this may not be a good comparison but the LA sounds much better at this point (mids and highs). I was thinking and hoping that there is a break-in period for these new crossovers. I know that my Advents seem to improve over time after re-capping the x-overs. I also swapped AR3a's to see if one was better...............nope.........both the same.....the tweeters sound very subdued. The mid ranges have lots of volume. Any comments are appreciated.

I have Heathkit AS-103a's, one with an open Tweeter voice coil and one with an aftermarket Mid (SpeakerMart) that I would like to exchange. I would like to get one of each matching the ones in the photo if possible but I may have to buy a pair of each to get them matched..at least cosmetically. Is there anything out there? Thanks in advance............

I need a tweeter and a mid for my AS-103a's and wondering if AR5 drivers will work? Thanks
