Decca EsS/4 speaker mod with Decca ribbon horn loaded tweeter

At your risk. Unfortunately or fortunately the front panel had been driled with many holes where many other fullrange speaker had been mounted in the past, and the back cover removed. It was decided to repare the 10in Celestion woofer and Yiannis did a peferct job with a very complient surround. the bass is so deep it is breathtaking. An inductor of 1.7mh is now connected in series with it and a 1uf to 2.2uF capacitor in series with the large Decca ribbon horn loaded tweeter giver by Mark in London near 2000 AD. The tweeter is mounted on top of the carefully gomme laq revarnish job done before 2000. The tweeter can be moved towards the back until bass source and high sorces are alligned. This is best? done by ear while listening to Lady Lady Lady - Georgio Moroder or Barry Gibd pads or strings on What kind of Fool song with barbara Streisand. It sounds close to Sennheiser HD580 driven from the Pleiades 2n3053 single ended single transistor no negative feedback power amplifier.
