Fried Beta Signature Series age?


I recently found a pair of Fried Beta's at a thrift store and was wondering if anyone has any knowledge of their age, and if drivers can be acquired. Also, are they special because of the Signature Series logo. Thanks

While I can't give you an age of your speakers I have an original pair of Beta's (S/N 1199 & 1200) that I bought new in the early eighties. Mine have the Signature Series designation. I know these speaker went through at least three upgrades denoted by MK II, III, and IV though I don't know when they stopped producing them (assuming they have stopped!). I've used them very successfully with a Creek integrated amp for all this time. A few years back I had to replace both woofers and Fried had them in stock, cost me around $100 to replace them. They make a real nice budget speaker or for a second system as I use them. Hope this helps!
