New Speakers: expensive and not like the old ones

[Feanor]

Without knowing specificaly what you are looking for, these modertely pricesd speakerds deliver a"big" sound. "Big" woofer speakers have pretty much gone the way of the Dodo....
.

Here's a new DIY project from Darren Kuzma at Parts Express. It would have some thing like that JBL sound of yore.

This speaker utilizes a 12" woofer, midrange, and horn tweeter, all from Goldwood.
