I have a chance to review a pair of these speakers for sale.
1. If I can't hook them up for testing, is there a way to check if the magnets are unglued? I've read that if they are unglued, then the entire speaker will need to be replaced.
2. Which drivers are suspect for this condition?
Thanks, Mike

the two midbass radiators (the two 6-1/2" woofers) :-) are the usual suspects.
Yeah, all you have to do is push gently on the cones... if the magnet's shifted, the cone will move stiffly or perhaps not at all - the other way to do it is to push in gently on the big passive radiator cone -- the two woofer cones should move "out" when you push the passive radiator "in". This also tests the air tightness of the cabinet.
