I had a pair(s) of both models. The original was called "The Large Advent" and the next,improved model, was the "New Advent." The new Advent featured a revised tweeter that was suppose to be cleaner and have a more extended range. It was also suppose to help the midrange since, both these systems being 2-way, the midrange was covered partially by the tweeter. The woofer was slightly revised and both were considered 10" although if you discount the surround material were more like 7". Both extended down into the upper 20's. Actually, the surround was the weak point for both systems. The surround would deteriorate over time.
The newer Advent did sound a little brighter than the original. However, both speakers were really something in their time----especially for the money. A stacked double pair was the way I went using a high powered Dynaco amp. Then double Haflers moved in. Really something from days gone by!
