The German and American made Blaupunkt were pretty nice but like most the other good brands they’ve been bought out ..the new Chinese stuff is crap about like Boss now days

I think Blaupunkt was factory for Porsche back in the day.. Replaced front door speakers on a 944 the had 2 way odd size "liquid cooled" tweeters. Whatever that ment.. For 88 it was a good sounding factory system.

I put 4 of the 8s in bbp last night, they modeled very flat from about 25-65hz in a low tuned box (30-33hz) ....very surprising.

Blaupunkt has been used in a number of Vhicles especially the Porsche’s ..which I currently have 5 vintage Porsche’s ..the liquid cooling was most likely ferrofluid used to cool tweeters which was fairly new at the time

What are the specs on that box? Is that a horn or bass reflex?

Your absolutely correct.. The owner of the car was more impressed with the engineering of the speaker then the sound.. Fact; Dam German's no how to build stuff... Lol

The Bosch VX series Blaupunkts were their best ...the mids had 3” vcs at the time ..they looked and sounded fantastic ..they had really high end amps ..this was in the mid 90s..I’m running one of the 4 chs in my Mercedes CLK right now

yep, liquid cooling on tweeters was done with ferrofluid, it was all the rage back in the day

Tried and true Walmart order...1st one opened damaged... the push terminals were bent in but I bent them back then I see the lip of the basket all bent up. Still 3 more to look at.

Holy shit, it takes a pretty big blow to bend that frame, what kind of packing material did it have?

 

[MattinMO]

2 out of 4 bent both were in the same box. Yeah def too a good fall it’s actually not that thin of metal so getting back to flat is gonna be a bit of a chore. They were in what would be the same kind of box some 6 1/2s would be in just cardboard no foam.

How do they look other than damage? Lol.. seem decent?

I think id try to put the bent ones in a box and just try to screw them down with a nice coarse threaded screw and see if the baskets could be straightened out that way.
