6510 VS 6503 in SDA 2B's

I have used both. Gotta do what you gotta do. 6510 seems to have better (well maybe more bass) 6503 seems more controlled, precise in the 2B speakers. Anybody got any experience with this or am I just imagining things? Its not at all unheard of for this to happen. Lots of hits early in life. Tell me what you think.

    When @gimpod's site was up I seem to remember early SDA 2b speakers came with the mw6510/6511combination. The SDA 2a used 2 mw6510, so they may have used the 6510/6511 in early sda2b before refining to the 6503/6511 in the end.
    Since the SDA 1c used the 6510/6511 drivers it would make since they tried that in a small version.
    Or I could be completely wrong, there's always that.

    Thanks for the info @pitdogg2. I am gonna epoxy up these two "new" 6502's i bought off ePay last week and after throw them in the 2B's and listen again. I like those to have all the original part numbers far as drivers go. I run the 6510's in my CRS but in the 2B's nah. Stick with the 6503. I do not have any measurement equipment. Ain't getting none. Never have had the inclination. I just listen and go by what I hear. We will see.

    You could have bought NOS MW6502 from me. They are listed in the classifieds.

    @F1nut good lord I called myself looking through there. I even posted that I needed one. Thorough is one thing I have never been . I just looked at a few pages Jesse and missed them. I thought to send you a PM and just didn't want to bother you to be honest. I know you have a lot going on.

    I saw your WTB, but that was for the 6503.
