The first two used similar tweeters, often refered to as the "fried egg tweeter", with the first showing a raised mounting panel and the "NLA" version flush-mounted on a metal plate. This woofer was continued in use for the 5002. The "New" version has a custom-stamped basket that fits a 12" hole but supports the 10" cone/surround with metal. The original uses a Masonite ring to mount the cone in a twelve-inch basket, and had an "inverted" surround to clear the grill. There are essentially three generations of it: the "original", or "OLA", the "New Large Advent", or "NLA", which I have seen marked on the rear as the "A3", and the 5002/5012.Īll three used ten-inch woofers that were similar in function, although different in appearance. The so-called "Large" Advent speaker, with its various acronyms, was originally simply "The Advent Speaker", when it was the only product made by the company. The long-awaited HUMAN 81 DK is now available.
