As usual I was rushing into things! Sorry.
For convience, I once again give the links to the ProAc 2.5 clones.
Gravesen made a superb work on these speakers, which are a pair of "top of the shelf" floorstanders. Superb rewievs all over.
Here goes:

I made the version with the 9500 tweeter. It is Great, no doubt.
I didn't want to make the mods on the 8513 tweeter.
Also I didn't modify the 8535 Scanspeak bassdriver with Damar coating. The crossover is made excactly like Gravesen suggests, except I used big Polyprops and big aircores.
Please download the Clone papers for yourself and have a look.
It is a thoroughly well worked out piece of documentation. Just the thing for all us DIY'ers. Thanks Troels.
Here is another good link on the Clones (even the name goes well with the GC )

The originals cost a minor fortune!

Well, regarding the Zapsolute; it is the brainchild of the audio
genious Lars Clausen, well known in this forum.
Take a look at his homepage:

I have got the 2*50 watt dual mono Zapsolute. I think it is even on sale right now!! Really a bargain.
Hope this clear things up
Steen.

The most critical and experienced audio user in my environment, Mirko Kubala (his homepage http://www.jurapharmacy.com/mirko/?v=hi-fi) just visited me.
I am very pleased, as he began to smile totally relaxed after the first tones from Marla Glen.
He told me briefly: "I never heard such a good sounding FE103 up to now. And I heard a lot of them. Perfect bass, good mids and very clear highs. Absolutely nothing to critcise!"
BTW: I posted here some news from Dr. Andreas Buschhorn. He contacted me, after my "hard" judegment over the Buschhorn's.

Edit: we connected the Coral Beta 8 for comparison: some coloration (specially remarkable with human voices) was the main difference to the FE103. Some weaker bass...
