Got a few minutes to transplant the horn tweet guts.

Wowsa, the replacement is WAY louder than the other working original horn.


And, for some reason the woofer on that cabinet is phased correctly and bass movement is outward instead of inward.


Finally done. Might swap out the horn guts on the other cabinet to even out the highs from R to L.

Rocked the party last night. Finally finished rebuilding the Yamaha's and putting them to the test. round 2 tonight! They sound beautiful and the entire system is plenty loud for a crowd only 1/4 of the way up.

The rca jack on the main unit makes a crackle/buzz noise sometimes. Bad solder joint I need to look into.

The car jump pack is there to feed 12v into the BT module because it isn't hard wired. I was streaming BT over 60ft away for hours never once cut out.

All I got is a morning after pic. I had to get up at 5am to work OT until noon. Tonight I will snap some more for the corn roast.

Dr. Joe strikes again! :jason:

Nothing like an easy fix. :-D :thumbsup: After some of the complicated, convoluted repairs you have been through this year, this one must have come as a relief.
