Blown psb alpha b1s

[Patrick Koontz]

I had some kind of feedback sent through my psbs, however the woofers still work. I was wondering how likely the crossovers would be fried, or are if the tweeters shot. Or both.

I will be running a multimeter to see if I could get a reading with the tweeter connections

Thanks.

Odds are the drivers will blow before a crossover, particularly the tweeter. If you're unsure about the tweeter, put on some music with some HF component and put your ear to the tweeter.

If they still sound OK, consider that you've dodged a bullet and learn from this experience.

From my recollection PSB's replacement parts tend to be a bit pricey. Give them a call though.

I would pick up a used pair of Alpha B1s . There are tons out there to be had.. ie
