Hi, Dave...
Yes I've heard about Solen's shielded Woofer... MCH's center channel actually had 2 crossovers as I recall and had to run 4 speaker wires from his amplifier...I was sort of hoping some genius had perfected a design that I could steal before buying the center from Ed, but I'm quite prepared to go with Plan B of refinishing the bland looking BIC America center channel.

I've got a few other projects that have been tied up for 3 months now that I have to get back to before I go trying to design a center myself...

Serves me right for trying to get something for nothing.

BTW, did you ever get around to refinishing your towers?
