Overall, the composite response of the speaker was В±4 dB from 35 to beyond 20,000 Hz. The background position of the switch in the rear of the speaker accentuated this dip by about 2 dB in either switch position the affected frequency range was from 1,000 to 4,000 Hz. The composite frequency-response curve, derived from splicing a reverberant-field mid- and high-frequency response measurement to a close-miked low-frequency measurement, showed a flat, smooth response over most of the audio range, with a small but distinct dip centered at 1,800 Hz (the crossover frequency). The neutral cloth grille (which has a molded plastic frame) unsnaps readily for access to the drivers. The cabinet is 26 inches high, 14-1/4 inches wide, arid 11-1/2 inches deep, and the speaker weighs about 40 pounds.

The sensitivity of the Advent 5002 is typical of acoustic-suspension systems of its size, with a rated sound-pressure level of 87 dB measured at a 1-meter distance when driven by 1 watt. Advent states that this response characteristic allows back-ground music to be played with less sonic masking of conversation. In the switch's normal position the speaker response is nominally 'flat.' Moving the switch to background reduces the output in the two-octave range centered at 2,000 Hz.

This crossover design allows each driver to operate with full effectiveness in its frequency range with a minimum of distortion or risk of damage.ДЄ novel feature of the Advent 5002 is a toggle switch recessed into the rear of the cabinet near the input connectors and protective-fuse holder. According to Advent, the output of the tweeter is reduced by 21 dB at 900 Hz compared to the level in its flat-response region. (Even the mounting screws are recessed to minimize unwanted diffraction that could affect the polar pattern of the tweeter.) The crossover between the tweeter and the woofer takes place at 1,800 Hz, with a three-pole, high-pass filter section that attenuates the signal to the tweeter at an 18-dB-per-octave rate below that frequency. The Advent 'Direct Report' tweeter is a totally new design with a 1-inch parabolic-dome radiator surrounded by a specially tapered and shaped 'phase plate' that is largely responsible for its exceptional dispersion qualities. Advent encourages experimentation to find the sonically best location. The speaker can be mounted either horizontally or vertically, against a wall or on the floor. The woofer operates in a sealed cabinet made of walnut-grain vinyl-clad particle board the smoothly rounded front edges give it the appearance of a wood-veneered cabinet. The nominally 10-inch-diameter paper cone (which has an actual radiating diameter of just under 8 inches) is driven by a 1-1/2-inch voice coil whose nominal impedance is 8 ohms. The woofer of the 5002 resembles the one used in Advent's earlier speakers. Like the company's previous models, they are all two-way acoustic-suspension systems featuring newly designed tweeters that have improved high-frequency response and dispersion.

We recommend replacing these in pairs so they are matched.Advent Corporation's series of loudspeakers consists of four models headed by the Advent 5002. Once these are installed you will have upgraded the tweeter and have greatly increased the frequency response. Also, the screw holes are close, but you will need to either angle all the screws or use new screw holes. The вЂњFried EggвЂќ tweeter has a square magnet and our tweeter has a round magnet, so you need to slightly enlarge the hole cut out in the cabinet. * This tweeter is also a good replacement for the orange and green вЂњFried EggвЂќ tweeter used in the older Original Advent Large, A3, A4, Small, Smaller and a few other models, but some modifications are needed.

It will also fit the 4002, 5002, 5012/W, but some of these magnets are square, so you will need to enlarge the hole a little bit to fit the new round magnet. вЂ“ Maestro, Large 25th Anniversary, A1052 and more. Same impedance (4.3 ohms), face plate and screw holes, so you do not have to modify the cabinet at all. All the specs and parameters were copied as close as possible to ensure similar sound and physical fit. Advent has discontinued the 85C00019 tweeter many years ago and we now have a great replacement. Brand New!!! These are new current production stock.
