ACOUSTIC RESEARCH AR-3a CONTROLS INSTALLATION KIT - LIFETIME GUARANTEE

Description: This is a complete installation kit for replacement controls for AR's AR-3a speaker. One kit is sufficient for one cabinet. You will pay your bid price times the number of kits you select. Original controls have not been available for many years.No need of soldering inside the cabinet. The kit includes 2 controls with the correct color coded connecting wires already attached, wire nuts to make the necessary connections, wire ties to neaten the installation, color photo illustration instructions and a detailed set of instructions for removal of the front grille. Superior to the original control. It is heavy duty, has finer turns for better set-ability, is ventilated for heat removal and has excellent contact life. The only tools required are a pair of pliers, wire cutting pliers and preferably, wire strippers. As there is no soldering required, this kit will greatly simplify and speed up the installation. We strongly suggest that you order one or two packages of AR cabinet sealer with this kit. The sealer may be found in department OTHER SPEAKER SERVICE PARTS. AR Acoustic Suspension speakers rely on a well sealed cabinet for reproduction of those low bass notes. Don't try and reuse the old, hard sealer. It's Penny Wise, Pound Foolish. The original AR control knob found on the AR-3a and AR-5 is an exact fit and we have these in stock, likewise in the Dept. OTHER SPEAKER SERVICE PARTS, if you would like to add them for a nice finishing touch. If you are suspicious of your crossover capacitors, this might be a good time to replace them, we have them in stock in Dept. SPEAKER CROSSOVER CAPACITORS. They are surely out of spec. if you can tell, depends on how critical you are of your music. Recent feedback from some of our customers: Hey, Larry - got the speakers back together and held my breath hitting the start button....have to tell you - WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! I must have been missing a lot of music from the Hi/Mid's (esp. the highs) prior to swapping. I can certainly tell a difference. So it was an endeavor worthwhile for sure. You've been kind, accommodating and gracious and it was appreciated. Thanks, Tony Larry- I just installed two L-Pad kits in my AR-3a speakers with excellent results after years of problematic level settings due to the original potentiometers that were oxidized and or worn. I am very satisfied with your illustrated instructions that have been really helpful. I am able to do soldering but the no soldering method was faster and cleaner. I thought it would take a day for each enclosure but I did it all in three hours. Thank you, I am glad and feeling safe knowing you are there for every need for my beloved old AR speakers. Giorgio. Italy. Hello, I received my combined shipping items, thank you so much. I was able to install the capacitors and H and M controls, and am happy to report my AR-3A's are working beautifully. Without the help of your step by step instructions I don't think I could have done it. Sean Please browse our entire store.
