Refurbished Dynaco a25 speakers from 1969

Hi All - my first Post. Thought I'd share images of my recent project. Re-veneered a pair of Dynaco a25 speakers with real Walnut Veneer, and recapped the crossovers and replaced all resistors

    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Beautiful job, C.  How do they sound in a modern system?  I had 2 different friends that had these back in my college days.  I haven't heard them in 45 years.  Bet they're still good sounding.

Welcome to the sweet spot.

My first speaks were Dyna A-25's. Paid $55 each in "Factory sealed cartons".

Ditto for me, except that I paid $58 each.

The one on the left looks fantastic but you really screwed up on the one on the right.

Very nice work sir.
Did you replace the drivers too?
Do they sound as good as they look?
