    Yeah, OKC got hit hard. I've been unable to get out for 3 days with 8" of snow on top of an inch of ice, and they got at least twice as much as I did. With only minimal thawing predicted for the weekend I'd expect no action until sometime next week.

    There are 2, aluminum & PascaLite, the aluminum (34852) is the 16 ohm replacement for yours. Note that new diaphragms have spade lugs instead of screw eyes, so be ready to replace your wire terminals. If you prefer, you can send the drivers for GPA to install, and they'll remagnetize them at the same time.

    I'd do as BFish suggests, send them in and get them changed over and re magged. Living in a bar, you never know what was put through them power wise, esp if someone has replaced one dia with a high power one.

    You're putting in 'new' good 416A's why scrimp on the top end?

    One other thing i would do while they are in the garage. Is to lay some cardboard,wood,etc, down then a piece of plastic sheeting, garbage bags,etc, on top of that.Moisture has a funny way of wicking up into the cabs (Wood).Would hate to see them damaged in any way, they look to be in very nice shape.
