@brownsfan I have a pair of ADS L1290s as well. I assume you’ve spoken with Richard So? He rebuilt my mids and tops, new old parts. I love these speakers! And yes, vintage.
au-lait, Yes, I have spoken to Richard So. I plan on sending him my mids and tweets if I can get them out. I am working on the crossovers myself, and Richard is willing to sell me parts, but isn't exactly a wealth of information otherwise.
Perhaps no parallel, but I own cars that are classic (1950s-early70s - there weren't any later classic 1970s cars after 1972 as the whole decade sucked in the auto area) and first decade 2000s which are now just used cars but not yet classics. Vintage means a lot older with cars than it does with audio gear.
@ejr1953 Yes I remember lights being flashed at me in my BMW 2002 from oncoming 2002 owners When l would go to parties back then the subject of cars would come up. I would be asked, what car do you drive? I would reply a BMW and then they would ask yeah but who makes it??? Just like when l tell people l own a VAC amp and they would say, what's a VAC???
