### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replacement 3” midranges for Optimus Satelites
*by K***. on November 17, 2025*

Needed to replace the midrange speaker in one of my Radio Shack Optimus satellite speakers. This was 1990’s vintage that were wired to an 8” subwoofer originally. They are now wired directly to my receiver, and are paired with a 12” Klipsch subwoofer and serve as my front speakers to my 7+1 TV surround system driven by my Sony STR-DH770 receiver. Other surrounds are 4 Micca cube, plus a 3- driver with two passives, Definitive center speaker. All to say I’m very happy with these satellites. They keep up well with all the more modern equipment. I think this result is driven by the passive bass drivers they have that allows them to transition well between all the other speakers in the systems. Flawless transitions in surround mode. Their triangular shape also helps that transition between all the side, rear and front speakers. I couldn’t find better new speakers so I fixed them with these midranges. Think Bose 901s. One original midrange had been distorting at higher volumes with base loads…likely age in the foam of the 3” driver. So I replaced the midranges in both speakers. Getting great specs on all options listed in Amazon was tough. Some providers have great details, many did not. These drivers are not a perfect fit. The drivers are the correct 3” size but the screw holes and housing shape are slightly off. The frames don’t tuck completely into the slight recesses in the speaker face. I used metal snips to cut into the screw holes in the frames to make them slots instead. Now the drivers mount up firmly with no vibration or distortion. They seal up well enough to drive the passive radiators as the originals did. Not 5 stars are they aren’t a drop-in for my housings. Not their fault but that rating reflects my level of relief in having them in place…which is that high!
