I have a pair of Impulse H2 speakers that I may soon need to move on as we're downsizing.

 

[hifinutt]

too late methinks !!! i do believe the op is now sorted

 

[manisandher]

Anyone looking to buy a pair of H2s should know that their mid-drivers are likely to be shot to pieces and need replacing - they tend to just disintegrate over time. You'll know this if you can see a silver ring where the surround should be. I doubt you'll be able to find the exact drivers any more, but you may be able to find some substitutes. Paul at RFC sorted mine out for me. (I've since also replaced the tweeters and bass drivers with NOS units - didn't need to, but they were available on eBay, so I decided to go for them.)

When I get my new listening space treated and set up, I intend to make a video comparing the H2s running passively (with high-quality RFC outboard crossovers) vs. actively (using Roon's DSP). Should be interesting...

Mani.

 

[Mr.Ian]

Shot drivers, it really depends on how they have been looked after, the bass and mids are easily reconed :, unless the sand the mid horn array has leaked due ti mis handling

 

[manisandher]

All the H2s I've ever come across (in person and in pics online) have disintegrated foam surrounds and sand embedded in the mid-drivers. Here's a pic from RFC's website:



I think my H2s were about as well looked after as any (they even came with their original boxes!), and yet the mids were still shot.

But if they can be repaired, that's great.

 

[manisandher]

But I have to say that once sorted, they're great speakers. I love mine .

 

[Audio Al]

If the OP is not sorted yet I have a nice pair £1200

Those look like they have been at RFC.
Also might benefit from being a little closer to the wall.

I nearly bought a pair of these Aspara some years ago, which were Brian Taylors next venture. I'd love to have heard them. Financially the pips were squeaking though. I do like horns.
