Yeah, like trimming the kit down, changing out the surround and sticking it in a LE14A? Whoever wrote the website is following the correct guidelines and making factual statements. The person you are talking to is not someone who I would ever consider doing business with.

UPDATE: A disappointing setback!
I finally connected all the drivers and crossovers to audition the low frequency LE15A drivers. They were pushed with my Crown Macro Reference and a decent set of cables. One had a little more output than the other...but both sounded OK, but a little muddy. Not a true test, because unfortunately, I discovered other issues. Both my 077 diaphragms are smoked as well as one of my LE85's. I am able to purchase NOS JBL diaphragms for the LE85's. The 077's are another story.......a NOS pair on e-Bay for about $500 is more than I can afford right now! Can anyone recommend a decent and less expensive alternative until I strike oil?
Has anybody used the Jansen/Zomax 2404-T diaphragms in their 077, 076, 075, 2404, 2405 etc.... ??

Although they are more than likely made in China or Taiwan, they look much different than the typical cheap Chinese aftermarket ones. From the pictures, they look like they are better constructed.

I had a pair with a tanish fill - seemed to be beeswax. I took a little used saucepan, put some water in, brought the water to a boil, pulled off the heat, then set the crossovers in the hot water for maybe 3-4 mins. That should melt the wax - take a clean spare can and pour the wax into that (save it). Repeat if it didn't all melt the first time.
Honestly, the Wax fill is EASY to deal with - some used a potting compound in some crossover units and it doesn't melt!
