You're right, they could've blown for other reasons, one cone is stuck like sucked in the other is scraping. Still the question remains:

Should I try to alter the throat slot or just stick a new one in there, and wouldn't lw1400 be a better horn driver?

So you can't tell from the cab if it's a good loading or not?
How will you tell if you see the drivers? There's nothing to see really, just dead old good looking drivers.
I don't have the boxes or the pics here, when I get there it's to make them play, but I can ask the owner to post them.

if the loading was uneven, the cones should be damaged in a certain way, also the voice coils should have visible signs of rubbing only on a certain part of the former. and other signs.

I've seen enough blown speakers to know which signs to look for.

I think most likely, the damage was done because of the lack of a suitable highpass and too much power applied.

OK, I will try to rip out them cones out:-)

I was just asking about your opinion on the uneven loading, if it's all wrong I would do something about it before mounting a new driver. To me the slot looks strange.
