Hi all!

I had the oppurtunity to buy a pair of cheap MK3. I had never seen or listened to them before in my life. So I don't know how they should perform. All I had to do was reform the midranges. I did that and had the crossovers fixed (beoparts) at the same time.

Now the question.
Isn't the midrange drivers supposed to move? I can't even feel vibration from them! Bassdrivers seem to work as accepted.

You won’t be able to detect movement from midrange drivers. You should hear them by placing your earn close in front and using pink noise.
