    I may have posted in here before, or PM'd, but I still need a set for my 2B's that I am holding up on until these are available.

    Thanks, Larry!

    I made my interest tentatively known on another thread and via PM, but this is the official Larry's Rings wait list, so I will proclaim my need 'officially' for a set for a pair of SDA1C's and another set for my 2.3's. Please add me to the growing list. Will wait for info on payment.

    Thanks Larry!

    There are prices posted in the FS thread somewhere.
    But the prices may change without notice, I mean with Larry's notice. :wink:

    TY sir and I see Monitor 12's are not on the list nor are RTA 12's and 5 JR's. I don't know if I can afford all that but it seems like I need to get while the getting is good!

    That list isnt all inclusive..

    For instance my RTA 11TL's use the same 6.5" mids and SL tweeters as SDA's so I can buy the rings for the SDA's for those parts, he simply doesnt have any rings for my 8" passive drivers. However if you took one of the 6 1/2 rings and cut it in 4 parts you could still use it for the 8" passives, you just wouldn't have a fully enclosed metal ring all the way around. Conversely I could buy 2 of the 10" rings for each woofer, remove enough to make them fit and then weld them back together to have a single continuous ring for the passives. Thats a bit much IMHO, I'd rather just hacksaw it to get it to work and be done.

    However since thats not on the list of his prices that would require a somewhat custom quote lol....

    Hello Larry!!!! I'm up for some rings for my SDA-SRS 2's pin/blade design. Also, is it necessary to go with the tweeter brackets? I just saw something mentioned on the other thread about those. Thanks for all your efforts and craftsmanship Larry, we all appreciate helping to make our Polk speaker dreams come true sir!

    Larry, I'm interested in a set of rings for my Monitor 7B's and a pair of tweeter brackets for my Peerless. Blew it and missed out last round. Thanks for trying to find time to do another run of these.

    Quick question: On my RTA12's, when I push in the PR the midwoofers stay out indefinitely. They don't recede at all. Am I correct in assuming that I would either not benefit or that the benefit would be negligible if I added rings or hurricane nuts?

    My Monitor 5's are another story, they recede after a short amount of time. Being they are set to "small" in my AVR, does that mean they wouldn't see a great benefit either?

    The mid-drivers have to vent and they do so via the dust caps. Not sure why yours are not, but it is an opposite problem.

    You may want to check if the mid drivers are original as they should be vented and air should pass after few seconds.
    It should not stand out forever.

    Okay so I had to double check. They do move back in, /VERY/ slightly, but after the slight movement they are still pushed out 80-90% of what they originally were. They don't go back in until I let go of the PR. Is that more normal?

    There is a resting position. When you push the PR in the mid-drivers move out to their maximum excursion, then slowly recede. When you release the PR it sucks the mid-drivers in to that maximum excursion, then they move back out to their resting position.
