That set up looks schweet though... Congrats... Just keep lookin' at dem drivers. I've a pair of those that were shoehorned into a pair of vintage Epicure 15's. Best bookshelf I own right now...

Really Worf? I've been toying with the idea of ordering some of these to put into a large tower - something like the pics here, but just a standard 3-way...how would you describe the sound?

The price sure is right on the drivers.

The Epicure I have these drivers in has the ceramic, inverted tweet, the smooth 6" main and a 10" passive. They're now being powered by my vintage Akai 1030 receiver. When I want to listen to pure 2 channel... these are the speakers I listen to. I think these drivers would be great in any project. The only thing that concerns me is that since they're not built like conventional drivers, repair or surgery could be far more complicated. I'd go for it personally...

Hi Ssabripo, and thanks for the kind words. Happy customers make us happy!

I'd also like to say that ssabripo has been a very kind and gracious customer, insofar as we somehow inadvertently shipped him a B-stock 6.1 and are replacing it at our expense as I write this. And may I further say that as a past long-term AudioReview sponsor, The Audio Insider doesn't endorse "shilling" in any way, not here, not anyplace. Nor do we need to.

Ssabripo, if I can help further, please let me know!

But I hope after reading the thread in total you can clearly see that nobody EVER put down your customer for liking his speakers. Actually I think what grabbed peoples attention first, at least mine, was how sophisticated the review was. Use of multiple pics, fonts, and animated smiles is NOT a hallmark of a first time poster. It's obvious that besides liking his speakers, the reviewer knows his way around computer code.

Yeah, I gotta admit, with all the talk about internet/factory direct speakers this week, and knowing the quality of drivers in these, I'm anxious to hear some. If anyone in li'l ol' Canada has a pair (or more) lemme know...I'm in most major centers every month, lunch on me!!!

That's an interesting idea, Geoffcin, however ssabripo probably does what I do and just uses the forum HTML (or whatever its called) to post pics.

I know he spent a long time getting comfy with us and the product and it looks like he's happy enough to share, for which we're, naturally, thankful.
