ElectroVoice T35 - anyone familiar with them?
Went to a turning shop yesterday, to get some screwed up windings in 2307 horns renewed. The owner recognized the horns, he did the boring/tapping himself, and we had a nice little smalltalk about loudspeakers in the meantime. While I paid a little fee, he pulled 2 pairs of very dusty speakers somewhere out of the bottom drawer in a corner, admitting he used to build speakers himself, decades ago. These were from an unfinished project, I got them as a gift – "better than throwing away, have fun with them.."
So, anyone familiar with EV, and these tweeters? :blink: I'm not. 8 ohms, they looked a bit like Klipschhorn tweeters (K-77 ??) to me, but those are usually black, not chrome.. OK, EV is wellknown, they build highend speakers too. Seems these could be used as replacement tweeters for Klipschhorns? Are they usable for anything else, and of any mentionable worth? Could do with a bit enlightening.. thanks.

I don't feel good in selling not working stuff.
Edgewounds very illuminating 'Electro-Voice History link' inspired me to treat these with more respect. Had that well done here too, and could watch the repair - quite professional, it's a tricky procedure to open/close them. We tried them out, pretty clear and musically - I'd say alnico sound ;) and fortunately no obvious 'dive' audible.
But still no use for them, as I got 2405s recently. :) Back on the bay.
