Hi Everybody
I recently bought a pair of L200 from UK for 600 pounds (1100$). I think they are L200A model.
They were in a theatre for about 40 years. The boxes are painted in black but the general condition is good. One of the woofers has a small damage. I sent the speaker for repair.
The drivers look good and have the original JBL diaphrams. The harness inside was changed due to a bad upgrade with Motorola tweeters.
I have decided to completly restore them , so I have removed the drivers . I scrached of the paint with a heat gun, the Motorola drivers went to trash and in their place I will put some wood
to fill the holes. I ordered veneer and I will try to restore them exactly like they looked back in the 70's.
The crossovers look original inside , but I'am a little bit worried about them.
Here is were I will need your help guys:
1. What kind of upgrade for the crossover do you recomend so I can add a 077(2405) tweeters on top of them separately ? I can not afford upgrade to 2235h so original woofers will remain
2 I want to change the harness inside because the wires looks to be a bad quality. I tought QED silver so what do you think ?
Here are some pics with them .
I will keep you posted with the upgrade.
Thanks
Alex.
