I've had these station speakers about 10 years now, and they are just worn out, the price was right back then and I've gotten my money's worth out of them:
I tried upgrading them with car stereo speakers:
but there was too much mismatch between the 4 ohm speaker and 8 ohm stereo
amp, it distorted too much when turned up. So I ordered some new ones online
for about $37 each. Each speaker weighs about 4 lbs and are rated for 100 watts
RMS. Plenty for listening to Radio Havana Cuba!
Taking the old ones out:
The new ones fit perfectly!
and believe me, they sound GREAT!
Total project time: about 30 minutes.
