    I have the three drivers you mention but not all in the same cabinet. I don't think there's much -if any- overlap between the usable frequency ranges of the 2405 and the 128H, so you'll need at...

    Ok, you asked for it.

    You start off considering this screaming deal for 4312d's - two pair, even - and want to dump your S4700s because they represent a bunch of money tied up in a...

    Great find!

    Someone with a lot more wood and veneer know-how should chime in soon. Just don't be in a hurry to try any old solvent.

    inverse Bang for the Buck

    Most people have a sense of time and money and how much of each is too much to spend in pursuit of a deal. But when I'm on vacation, different math applies - a case of "I can't get this at home."
