Do Old speakers means Bad speakers?

I hope you have cut and insulated the ends with tape. You don't want the cut wires to accidentally touch and fry your crossover or worse your receiver.

Yes, cut and taken out tweeter. Wires are far apart.

Old speakers are well built and so, lasts long. Sound may deteriote because of stiff suspension surrounds etc. But they are really good. New budget speakers are fragile and more prone to complaints especially tweeters.
