Are at the Laser.. I will post some pics this afternoon. When I get them done and ready to sell I will post in the FM.

I want to use this thread to show you what they look like,and how they can be used.These will not be in the shape of a ring due to the cross bracing in some of the cabinets. I will also post a cost for them..

I will need the week to get them all together and ready to go..

Peace,
Larry.

    If you look real close I cut a slit on both ends just in case in some cabinets you have to work around a brace you can just snap it off and use the button part of it..

    I do know that these will fit my 1.2tl's, 1C's, and my buddys 2B's

    I personally think these should go in them all without a problem..

    I am thinking of cutting 200 sets, I know that seems like a lot but the big boys will take 8 sets per. My guess is 200 might go real fast...

    When you say "set" you mean 2 pieces to do one tweeter correct?

    I will go through the numbers again tomorrow for a price. I still think it looks like about $6 a set.

    Larry, please sign me up for enough to do SDA-SRS, 2.3TL, and 1C's...enough for 18 tweeters.

    Thanks. Looks like you'd have no problem selling 200 sets!

    Divide your previous(woofer bracket) run and divide it by two, it should be a little less than that.

    I guess I need 4 sets for the 1C's and 1 set for the 5B's? Is that how I'm reading this thread?

    Larry, I got a crazy idea that needs to be refined:

    What about a "ring" for spikes?

    I know it sounds a bit out there, but mull it over and get feedback from others.

    Why would anyone need rings for the spikes? If your speakers didn't come with threaded inserts, simply buy 1/4-20 T-nuts and call it a day.
