Would this be a good catch?

Wondering if that would be a good catch. But how would a speaker get warped like that?

Bullshit, "I pulled them from my doors like that". "Didn't even notice a change in the sound"

A small hole, from a screw driver, sure not a big problem. The whole cone warped, hell no.

Seriously screwed up...

Are they not made of fiberglass? Maybe they got to hot.

They sure as HELL didnt get like that by simply installing them. Something bad happened...

Its a good price for the crossovers and tweeters providing it doesnt go much over $40...

You could get different mids @ Parts Express and maybe have a good setup for cheap...

That set - not damaged, of course - is one of my favorites.

Even if you picked them up just for the tweeters and crossovers, it really would be worth it.

In fact, you've got me thinking about it!

Wait (page loaded for me)...
Those don't look like the K2Powers... but they don't quite look like the KP's either...

The crossover isn't correct - the one that comes with the K2Power set is truthfully amazing. That one looks sort of like the "nice, but not noteworthy" one that comes with the Access or Polyglass.

Maybe this is just an old model... but that also means those aren't the TN52 tweeter either.

So, I'm definitely passing.

That's the older Polykevlar set, which were famous for warping cones. Don't get them.

Why was that??

Can't remember what caused it, probably heat.
