Thanks guys. Part of me was thinking maybe they'll be fine since I'll be crossing over to a sub around 60hz. But the motor structure looks different. To me the chances of them sounding the same are slim. So yes, I'll send the poorly rebuilt one off since I don't trust myself to do it right - and I don't really have the time. I don't even really have time to rebuild these, but it's something I want to do so I make time here and there for it.
Thanks for the input. The Simply speakers guys are just a couple miles from me, but I have to mail it to them anyway - they're rules for some reason. Or I'll send it to this Miller Sound. I really was hoping I had saved myself time and trouble buying a set of rebuilt ones. Dumb of me to let them sit there for a couple months trusting there were exactly that. Tempting to just get the "new" Advent replacements that Simply speakers sells, but again, I'm doubting they sound the same. After all, when I look at old pictures, the old Advents also had that masonite setup for whatever reason.
