Also I think the tweeter decoupled outside of the cabinet containing the woofer really helps with diffusion and isolates it from bass/mids sound & vibration.
Very interesting I don't follow how the wires Connect to the driver Assembly area. Great job. I have six cities in my house. I actually have one that was attached to a centre speaker from 25 years ago.
Good video. How to replace the diaphragm for 805s (same as the Nautilus tweeter)? Is it possible to buy only the diaphragm? Have just change tweeters on my 805s. Everything seems good but after test play and I notice a dent on the diaphragm. Seems like it dent it selvf only by playing music (Pink Floyd)!! How is this possible?
You prolly dont care at all but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot my password. I love any help you can offer me!
Nice work, but how can I check whether or when I need to replace the ferofluorid? This is the case with many tweeters, I don't know whether it is also the case with B&W, but can I find out?
That's something I've never done with these. I guess you could send them in for service, or open them up yourself, but they're not really a serviceable item.
600 series were always excellent value for money. I still tell people today that if they see a pair of 602 S3 available, they should jump at them. They were of course, no match for the 800 series though.
It's great to see a qualified audio professional Aussie on RU-vid..! You know I was wondering if I could ask for some advice? I've got a pair of b&w matrix2 series 2 speakers which are still in excellent condition, bar the woofers. I wasn't sure whether it was the woofer driver or the crossover or the voice coil as I'm just an average Joe who likes decent sounds. But I took the chance and replaced the woofers with these drivers called Dynavox 200, as their advice. But this sounds terrible and it sounds nothing like the original, not even close..! I just can't believe they would recommend that garbage! Can you suggest some other options to replace the woofers driver chassis for my b&w matrix2? I really appreciate it..! Keep those videos coming
Hey! Thanks for the comment, and I'd be happy to help if I can. With something like that, it would be incredibly difficult to find a driver with the same sonic signature. Even for a woofer. If you still have the original drivers, you can get them repaired. Same with the crossovers, if there's a fault with them. Personally, I'd use Queensland Speaker Repairs, but I'm not sure where you're located. 👍👍
@thehilltopworkshop I think the problem was the woofers, because the sound came back, just not what I had hoped for, in fact it was horrible..! Yes, I kept the originals for both speakers. I'm not sure exactly what is broken, whether it's the diaphragm or the voice coils etc..? I live in Sydney. And thanks for replying..!
Excuse me aren't the pods made out of a solid body of aluminum thars been milled down, I own 705 s2 and it's 100% aluminum, i definitely would not have bought it if plastic.
