Help with AR-1 Acoustic Research speakers
I recently acquired a pair of Acoustic Research AR-1 speakers. Would
appreciate any info regarding the following: 1. I'm considering parting these out. Based on my research, the AR-1's have the Western Electric 755-A mid/tweet. The pictures I've seen of the 755-A all have a black cone. My AR-1's both have light brown cones that look like the black ones. Can these still be 755-A's? 2. What is the procedure for removing the drivers/crossover? All I've done so far is pulled back most of the grille cloth. There is a front panel which appears to be glued preventing access to the drivers. 3. Although both cabinets have stickers that say AR-1, they are different from each other. What's odd is that both have the round holes on the back; however, one has a pot with three metal connectors, the other has no pot and has seven metal connectors. Are these both really AR-1's? TIA |
