Breaking in speakers, for a second time?

[dingus]

Have you ever considered upgrading the crossovers in those old Wharfdales? My father has a pair of WD 70's and I was thinking of trying that with his. In your case, maybe it wasn't the cones that had to reburn in, but perhaps it was the capacitors in the crossover network

i didnt mean to infer that my situation with the Wharfedale's was due to cone break in. it was definately the caps reforming. that was about 18 months ago.

i did replace the caps and internal wiring earlier this summer. it was my first cap job and i didnt really know what i was doing. i ended up getting the cheapest caps out there. at some point i'll replace the cheap caps i put in, with some of good quality.
