Hi everyone, I have a couple items for sale that have just been sitting unused in my closet. Hoping for a good home to be put to good use:

1.) Beston RT002A-dipolar ribbon pair. Brand new in box, never used and only removed to inspect. These are only available directly from Beston, very cool tweeter for a high end dipole build on a budget. I bought these for a project that never happened. http://www.ribbonspeaker.com.tw/RT002A-dipolar 010213.pdf

$80 shipped CONUS, PM for international shipping.SOLD

2.) CSS WR125S midrange drivers. I have at least 8 of these available and possibly 16 more for sale this spring. Build a high end line array for a good deal with these. They are the same ones used in my current line arrays and sound incredible. Let's start at $80 shipped CONUS per pair.SOLD
PM me for quantities of 4 or more and I'll provide a discount 🙂

Happy to entertain offers. Thanks!

Jim, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you today, thank you very much for your hospitality and conversation. The Café Swiss was amazing as well, I think I need one of those machines in my kitchen though I lack your coffee prep skills. I hope you enjoy the mids/ribbons, definitely looking forward to hearing your feedback, especially regarding the Bestons. Take care and thanks again!

Likewise had fun with the meet, hope you folks enjoyed the papadums and samosas from DK Market, the place is a fairly amazing resource.

Making good coffee isn't rocket science, but it does benefit from the same sort of obsessive attention to system detail that high-end HiFi demands. In HiFi we juggle Frequency, SPL, and Phase - coffee brewing balances Time, Pressure, and Temperature - after a few thousand shots you start believing you've got the hang of it, that's when the real education begins.

Already plotting how best to use these drivers - there's a sick appeal in the idea of gutting a set of ML Sequels which have bad panels, and using them as the basis for a small array of WR125's over the 10" ML woofer, with the Beston Ribbons for the highs - sort of like stuffing a HiPro Chevy V8 into a Maserati Quattroporte "Sure do go like stink, Rufus - here, you hold my beer & watch this..."

But that would be sacrilege, and the Gods of Dispersion would smite us mightily....

Cheers

Jim
