Hi everyone
This is my first post - new member.
I have a pair of Tannoy DC10T, the ones with two drivers per speaker, they also make a DC10A which goes for three times the price, with one less driver per speaker (this is a strange hobby). Mine has started making a buzz from one of the DC woofers, I have checked inside and the noise is not due to wires rubbing or loose wadding etc, the driver has to go.
It transpires that this driver (priced at less than 500GBP) is not the same as that used in the DC10A (around 700GBP), the latter benefits from a different magnet material and a different tweeter design, but my guess is that other than this they are pretty similar and almost certainly interchangeable.
My question is can the "wrong" drivers be used and will there be a benefit in sound? I have no idea about crossover specs etc.....does anyone have any experience?
Many thanks
The rest:
