      What other speakers did you compare to? Did you replace the capacitors or are the still the original? Martin

      Wharfdale Evo 4.2 and Kali 8-In 2nd Wave. As far as I know the caps the the originals

       

      -and the sound is superior for tweeters and crossovers. Just a little bit expensive… https://www.google.de/search?sxsrf=APwXEdfKhAIQpbUCQv3JuWa-7OZkPReTWg:1682927688386&q=audyn+mks+kondensator+hifi&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi6yrGY0tP-AhXySfEDHTOxAKIQ0pQJegQIBRAB&biw=2752&bih=1011&dpr=1.25

      Just to clarify: Do you mean it sounds superior once that condensator is installed?

        Anyone ever thought -or tried out modding any of their speakers? I have these Beovox S45-2 ones and I do like the imaging but feel like the tweeter driver could be replaced with a better one.

        Why?

        Martin

        Because I’ve compared it with other speakers and found the tweeters of other speakers be a bit better

        I’m not averse to modding speakers. However, you might want to consider restoring the speakers to original condition before trying modifications. Verify that the capacitors in the crossover are good, the surrounds are in good condition, the cabinet is properly sealed, etc. The tweeters might have ferrofluid that has gone bad. The S45’s are generally regarded as a nicely voiced speaker. If you don’t like the sound of a well restored speaker, by all means hack away. But keep in mind that it is pretty hard to improve upon a well designed speaker. What specifically do you not like about the speakers? Glitch

        It’s not that I don’t like it, but like I stated above, I feel like it could be improved over, also how can I check wherever the ferrofluid is still good?
