I have had enough requests to at least check to see if we have enough interest for a 500 piece run of these.
If you want any please post with an estimated quantity.
We will see if it's worth a run.
Thanks

    Sorry Dave each size is qty sensitive.If it wasn't I'd always have some.
    I can probably get any qty but you will pay dearly for them unless its a big run.

    I believe they are used in conjunction with them, but I could be wrong. They are an alternative to Armacell that some folks are using as well IIRC.

    I would use them with and without the rings. It could be argued they needed less with Larry's rings, but i would still use them even with them. They are absolutely required if you are just using the screws.

    $25 ea? I dont plan on doing all my SDA's at once and $300 would be less money for tweeters and crossover upgrades, and rings so put me down for 4 instead.

    It has been a while since the last run, but I do not beieve it costs $25 per gasket (for the MW65XX gaskets) if there is a run of 500+. I do not remember the exact price, but it was definately lower than $25 per gasket, FYI. (I believe it was in the $3.50 range, but don't quote me on that.)

    Sorry, Steve, they really aren't $25 apiece. :razz: I just thought my throwing out an absurd number like that would get brgman to correct me with the correct price. Maybe he'll still chime in...

    I have heard great things about these gaskets, especially when used along with Larry's rings.

    Whew had me going for a minute Terry, I need 4 for starters but if its a one time deal only I would need 12, perhaps brgman could give us a guesstimate. BTW loving my Amp.

    I just looked it up, and the total for each gasket (not including shipping) is $1.00 a piece for the MW65XX gaskets. This is assuming the same production costs and the total number ordered is 500+.
