    That's too bad. Definitely not interchangeable. Maybe you should start a new thread so we don't hijack this one.

    ALL drivers in the bad speaker read open. Unfortunately, the 6511 in the working speaker has also been replaced with a 6500 at some point in time.

    Picked them up a couple of days ago, nice looking speakers. The seller was the original owner, said he bought them new in 92. The ad said OBO so he took my 30 dollar offer.

    Wow! Congratulations!

    This is one of the only things I miss about living in SoCal. You can keep the traffic and beaches.

    I just want the brews and audio deals....and maybe mountain/canyon roads, the 1 from SLO to Monterey, bomb burritos, abundant nightlife. Maybe San Diego wasn't so bad?

    Here's a pair of 10A's in Stanhope, NJ. Typical NJ prices but seller accepting offers. He has modded the XO's with Jantzen metallized film / Mills and replaced the damaged Peerless with SL1000's. These would be great for anybody with a pair of Peerless sitting around, or someone who wants to do the 10 SDA mod with the 2B/CRS+ crossover swap. He says 10B in the desc., but the serial tag says 10A. Go figure.

    Well these didn't hang around too long. Although they were in mint condition and I thought that I would keep them for quite a while, reluctantly they're gone. I didn't even get a chance to put them into the rotation when a craigslist customer came over to purchase some monitor 10's, he took one look at these and made a serious offer for both pairs.

    The money is fine, but I really hated to see them go.

    That tweeter looks like a TL to me. That's a really good deal.

    Look at the mold growing on the dust caps though. ;)
