Proton 313 Powered Speakers Overview, ***Bonus Tip*** How to Repair a Tweeter Dome with a Q-Tip!
In this video we check out out the Proton 313s, a very well regarded set of 100 Watt per channel powered speakers from the 80's. We perform some simple cosmetic and functional repairs and get them ready for resale. In the process, we demonstrate one of several classic technique for pulling out a dented dome in a tweeter or other types of dust caps. In addition, hear about the history of Proton Electronic which is still in business today after adapting to the changing marketplace. They still sell high end audio speakers today (but only in Asia, it seems).

Optimus 1 vs. Nova 7- Same or Different? Look Inside, Then Refurbish
มุมมอง 1.9K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
I recently picked up two different sets of speakers, and was quite surprised to see how similar they were. The Allied Nova 7 and the Realistic Optimus-1, both from from the 1973 Radio Shack catalog line-up, appear to use identical drivers, in an identical configuration. But once you open them up and dig deeper, you learn how different they are. This video takes you thru those points as we compl...
