Wharfedale Pacific Pi 30 Floor standing speakers
A pair of above speakers were brought to me of which one tweeter was silent. Holding clamps of the tweeter bases were also broken.
I decided to modify the tweeter clamping device and use a pair of small ribbon tweeter available for cars.
The speakers are quite old ( may be over 20 years or more). I found some information and reviews from net, which may be of interest to the viewers.
The woofers and midranges of the Pacific speakers are made of a Kevlar weave, which reportedly has a very good ratio of stiffness to mass. In an attempt to reduce front-baffle diffraction, the cloth-dome tweeter is mounted in a separate pod perched atop the cabinet. The tweeter can be rotated to direct its output, which can work like a level control when it's aimed toward or away from the main listening area. This also makes it easier to reduce wall reflections in an untreated room.
The woofer cone is slightly weightier, and produced a deeper thunk from a finger-tap. The crossover point between these units is set at 60Hz; the woofer is there to simply augment the midrange driver's nearly full-range performance.
The woofer is mounted in a ported sub enclosure, while the midrange enclosure is sealed. Both of these enclosures contain 1-inch fiberfill to reduce internal acoustic reflections. The internal bracing and construction were very impressive almost too good for a speaker.
