Thanks Sam.
Yea, I saw those and considered that route, but these little Yamahas have been in my life for so long, I just want to bring them back to life.
I'll get the Ebay replacements and if they don't hold up, I'll go a different way.
Like I said, they are a permanent fixture in the practice space, they never leave the house.
At one point in my life (late 80's), I was living in Phoenix and doing a solo act in local bars. These were my speakers. A lot of good memories.....

I received the tweeters from the Ebay salesman. Cots me $30 for the pair.
I installed them, and since they were direct drop in replacements, it took less than 10 minutes to do.
They sound fantastic! What a difference. Clean, clear and crisp.
I'm quite pleased with how that turned out.
The little 30 year old Yamaha's are back to full strength! Sweet.

Hate throwing away perfectly good gear, so glad to see it worked out for you.
