need to fix my 14 yr old monitor 7's

[why_ask_why]

I've had my monitor 7's since I bought them new in the summer of 1990 right before I started college. Amazing speakers still to this day imo.

Anywho, my radiator on one of them is shot. It's buzzing/farting/popping at moderate to high volume.

I know I can replace the radiator but I take it I should replace both?

The serial #'s are 9006750 & 9006751. Any info would be appreciated!

Being passive they rarely go bad, are you sure it's not one of the mid drivers? If it is the PR you can not buy a new one, however you can most likely fix it. Remove the PR and check for seperated pieces. If that is the problem simply reglue the pieces.

wow, great call...just checked and it seems it is the mid...had always figured it was the pr due to it happening under bass load
so, yeah, now what? and thanks!:cool:

are the mid drivers in all models of the 7's the same?
