My friend Phil has a vintage pair of Avalon Acoustics speakers that survived a house fire, taking some damage along the way. These speakers, while currently in terrible disrepair, are incredibly well made. The interior of each is lined with lead sheeting an contains a beefy crossover circuit.

The worst of it one of the speakers has a tweeter missing it’s backing magnet. I wonder if replacements exist? [UPDATE] Said friend actually found the missing magnet. He’s had it for nearly two decades sitting on top of his refrigerator!

With the tweeter re-assembled and new woofer soldered in place, we’re almost there.

Finally the second speaker is made whole again. And they sound GREAT!
