Willmax Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Those speakers look to be in stunning condition, and should sound really wonderful with a variety of amplification. Having had a pair with the same drivers myself, I do have a soft spot for them Can you provide further details to substantiate your claim about the non perishable surrounds on the Arden mkii? My understanding is that they use the exact same surround material from the mki which would perish overtime but not that it is an issue as replacement is still readily available. I'd be happy to stand corrected on this. @Lx4man Edited April 30, 2022 by Willmax 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the hpd385 , 3828 and 3839 all use the exact same material for suspensions , I have refoamed all 3 of these models and the biggest difference is in the motor (voice coil and magnet ) surrounds and cones are the same construction , kürt muller sr336's are used on all of these drivers Edited April 30, 2022 by Lx4man Further info 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
