I got hold of these lovely old (late 60's/early 70's) AKAI SW-130 speakers.
Pristine 12" drivers and big, solid, well-built cabinets.
They came with 3.5" 10W 8-Ohm tweeters and very basic crossovers.

Specs:
System:- 2 ways and 2 speaker bus reflex book shelf type
For low-pass: 30cm corn type
For high regions: 9cm corn type
Frequency response: 50Hz - 18000Hz
The maximum input: 25W
Impedance: 8ohms
Output sound pressure level: 100dB/W
Crossover frequency: 3500Hz(12dB/oct)
Dimensions: Width 420x height 570x depth of 310mm
Weight: 13.1kg

Unfortunately, the one tweeter has been replaced by an incorrect one. So I am looking for 1 x 3.5" 10W 8-Ohm AKAI 3H-1 tweeter, or a pair of suitable replacement tweeters. Or what should I do? The replaced tweeter also does not have a crossover in the cabinet, so I would need to make up a crossover... There is only a small coil, and 1 capacitor!

Any advice? Or a tweeter, or a pair, for sale? Please let me know!
