I have an answer to my own questions, Flashlight systems was only sold in groups of 6 bass bins & 6 tops according to the user manual. Probably they also wanted to sell the bassbins separately, but nok to break their own marketing principle they had to give it a new model name.

That's my guess, silly isn't it?
Anyone with a better guess?

Don't worry, I will:-)
Sometimes floodlights come up really cheap, every so often I missed it
Tms-4 & tms-3s are often found cheap as well.
But tms-2s are just never around!

Flash was 6 pairs on a BSS EPC series rack, you bought rack, cables, boxes and the LMS to boot!

Also to note the flash drivers do not have a bolt through them. The phase plug is held on by the fibreglass.

I have seen the 6501 (flash 6.5") which did have the same bolt thru as the 6503. There are some cheap 6501's I could get locally but wanted to maintain the system.

Nothing like, the 6.5" is a very Turbo driver, if you want Flood you need RC kit from Turbo, the whole setup took Funktion One an age to get right and somehow I don't think they just bought stock PD drivers....
 
It is a system worth sorting out but will require the right bits, other thing do the drivers actually work? If they do a steam clean may be worth a try.....

I'm all ears. Yes the drivers still work, and have dried out since. I know less than zero about steam cleaning, so keen to know what to buy and even what a small steamer device is actually used for so I can buy one. Please show and tell :)

Hey Lincoln
Im also planning to buy some TFL 760 here in Germany. I think i have got way better access to spare parts here. And luckily i am going to auckland in 2016 for six months - so maybe i can help you a little bit ;)

Much appreciated, that would be awesome!  I still haven't done much except completely strip these all down to check out. I will be selling a couple of these since I don't really have the room. This will hopefully keep the rebuild budget down a bit too. Will check here from time to time. It looks like I may need 1 HF diaphragm and possibly 2 midrange recone kits.

Hi Lincoln, i finally got my 4 760Ht and love them. One of the best Speakers i have ever heard.
I have good news for you: The HFis easy to get over here and it would be no problem to ship them over to NZ (about 20€ for a big package). The midrange driver is also very rare here in europe, but i am trying to get some, as long they are still avaiable, anyway for having them as spare parts. I already found some recone kits for the 12" driver. You might give me your mail address or Facebook for better communication.
