Has anyone here seen these?

Rick J. B. · 24th December 2006, 02:57 PM

I gotta say I'm intrigued. I wouldn't have thought anything of them except I ran across a thread on another forum and those guys just raved about them.

I'm not sure if these are fullrange, coaxial or what, but for $50 there's little to lose.

Looks like coaxial, very similar to some of the KEF designs (ie. Q35)

There is a great long thread on these... something like "A reason to not DIY"

Dave, somewhere I had run across a thread where guys were singing their praises left and right.

Anyway the first thing I thought of was sticking them in a BIB.

Seems that quite a few here and over at AA took the opposite approach and stuck different drivers into the cabinet.

Really? I'll have to look into that. That seems odd.

Thanks GG,

They really don't sound so hot by the looks of it. A guy could mess around modifying them and have some serious cheap fun though.
