Advent Legacy woofer original?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Emp...  From my memory, those are NOT the original Advent Legacy woofers...

See link below, but the original had foam surrounds and had "ribbing" near the outer edge as the photo link below shows...

Sir Thrift-a-Lot:
Plus, they only have four bolt holes instead of eight.   Good eye, gdv.

Dicky:
That sort of looks like a Bose woofer to me.  I recall a set of 301's I redid with that flat spot in the middle of the dust cap, and leads through the cone.

Those may be original woofers from an older model Advent, but, they are not Legacy woofers.

I had a set of Legacy II's - The drivers had a few sets of "rings" toward the outer perimeter of the cone. Additionally the dust covers were very thin and fully convex. Legacy III's are similar. Legacy I's, I'm not 100% sure of, but doing photo searches on Legacy I's does not turn up a woofer similar to what you've got.

gdv:
I agree with Dicky that it looks like a Blose woofer, BUT Emp's has a rubber surround & Blose had foams...
