I am about to buy a set of SL3's from July 1995.
The seller says they come with an extra set of new panels which are still in plastic.
How can I recognize if these are actually new? I remember reading somewhere they are visually different from the old ones?
As the woofers are 28 years old I am also thinking of replacing them with the Scanspeak Discovery 26W/8534F. Should I get the 4 Ohm or 8 Ohm version? And is it a straight bolt in replacement or do I need to modify anything?
And lastly, how difficult is it to make the SL3 active? This will save me the hassle of having the passive crossover checked and possibly upgraded. And what crossover frequency and filter steepness is recommended for the woofer and the panel?
