Hmm. I, because I'm an incorrigible tweak, would start by replacing the caps...

...in the speakers and the amps. I've done this MANY times to speakers and amps, all with positive results.

The upgrades can be very simple replacements with good-quality 'propylenes such as SoniCaps in the speakers and Cardas Golden Ratios in the amp, to higher-quality (and 'priced) stuff like adding Cardas GR bypasses in the speakers and using SoniCap Platinum (Teflon) couplers in the amps, and replacing the amp's powersupply caps.


You can do this in stages, of course, literally a pair of caps at a time.

Do you have (or can you create, in the case of the speaker) schematic diagrams?

If you'll e-mail me at jeffreybehr(at)cox(dot)net, I'll send you some info on my Antique Sound Lab Hurricane rebuild.
