Little Help >> repair Frazier Seven speaker

Snade

humble AK member
The Frazier Seven is a three-way speaker with two tweeter horn drivers and two midrange drivers (see photos).

One of my horn tweeters in one speaker is blown. I get no sound from either tweeter in that one speaker, but when I connect a speaker wire directly to each tweeter (one at a time at low volume), I get sound from one tweeter but not the other.

Finding a replacement horn tweeter will be difficult.

Question, can I rewire the two tweeters to just use the one tweeter ?

And if yes, should I do the same to the other speaker (with all drivers working) to have a matched pair ?

These things play big and forward with the two tweeters so toning the highs down a notch may sound pretty good.

What do you think? How would I rewire the two tweeters ?

You'll find a couple unsuccessfully completed auctions at "that place", might be worth a shot to contact that seller to see if he still has any available.

Keyword "frazier tweeter".

If you just wire in the single working tweeter, it may need to be padded down a bit, and it's also going to blow a lot easier from a thermal/power handling perspective than when wired in series with another.
