I've got four L55's in my 4.1 home theater/music system.
Two in fantastic condition.
Two with just slightly sunken in spiders and one bad tweeter or crossover. Haven't troubleshot that yet because the dang tweeter cover wouldn't pop off when I tried using a small flat blade screwdriver to pop it.
Anyways, I looked at the crossovers. They are what appears to be a couple capacitors covered in a pool of melted wax. Then a few resistors. So I'm thinking replacing the caps is out of the question.
What are some good, inexpensive mods to perform here?
First thing I'll do is replace the lansalloy surrounds with foam. But what else?
Can't afford to put big bucks into this right at the moment.
Just want to fix the tweeter/crossover issue and then apply light mods.
