Mission 734 tweeter problem

[akirru]

Hi all,

I have some old Mission 734 speakers but but the tweeters have failed. I was looking for get some replacement. But I'm looking at around £40-50 for each tweeter. Is that good value for an older set like this.

Most of the tweeters available on eBay are for the 734i version of the speakers. They are the same size but I assume to be a different spec. Would those work ok?

I currently have a Mission 734 set and a Mission 75c centre

I was offered a set of Q acoustics 2020i's (5.1 with a 2070 sub) for £230. Just not sure whether to fix what I have or move on.

Any input would be nice

All is uncertain at this stage, IMO. 😀

What you need is a multimeter:

This allows you to test for basic electrical continuity. Look for 6 ohms.

Tweeters are simple things:

Trouble is, often, they are fitted with ferrofluid. Dries out after 20 years. Clogs up the voicecoil.

Seek the cheap fix first. 🙂

thanks for your reply. I managed to pick up a couple of tweeters on eBay. I did this before reading your reply. But I had already tested them with a voltmeter and got nothing from either of them. So I just assumed they were blown.
