hi everyone,

I'm very new to DIY, but I found a pair of these used at such a good price, that I just had to buy them. I have read that these are fantastic drivers

I am considering two options:

1. Selling them. I don't think I will get into this hobby seriously enough to design a great speaker that will take full advantage of these.

2. Using them using someone else's design. If I found a design that is proven, and uses other high end drivers, I would be willing to spend the money to buy the rest of the components, and put them together. I am very good at the assembly aspect, but not very good at the design aspect, nor do I have all the tools to do an audiophile quality design

Thanks for the help,

Patchwork.

Hi Patchwork,

My opinion probably isn't worth much to answer your question. But, if you decide to sell these please let me know, I have been looking for a used pair (wish I could afford new) of these to replace some blown/missing midranges I have had for a while.

Cheers,
Fred
