What makes me think it’s the surrounds, is the same sound I heard 20 years ago before I replaced them. ?I never play these loud, but if I did turn up the bass, I hear that recognizable buzzing which went away after replacing the surrounds. ?I listen to them at normal volume levels now and hear nothing, but I just know it exists. ?I was thinking I could replace them again, those surrounds are inexpensive at $30, and unlike when I replaced them last time, there are many YouTube videos on how to do it correctly but I just don’t want to take them apart and deal with that.
?
If the caps were bad, it would sound distorted at any volume level, right? ?

I guess it’s hard to tell from the pics but I can’t see anything bad regarding the surrounds, are they deteriorated somewhere? If your hearing any distortion its probably just because it needs caps replaced.?

I'm going to say that they look great, fabric - grills - wood rails all fine. ?If I were to keep them, I'd replace the woofer's foam surrounds. I did it myself once before about 20 years ago, not difficult at all. ? You are right about the shipping. ?I never considered shipping them, they really need to be seen and picked up locally.
Thanks for you response.
