Thanks, haha. Things have crossed the “obsessive” threshold, so with good intentions of “doing better” I sold the 1C's, 2B's and the 5B's since that photo was taken. However, another pair of 7B’s with Peerless and another pair of 3.1’s somehow ended up in my garage... planning on refurbing them and reselling soon. The 7B's will be getting mahogany veneer and a crossover update. Then I’ll compare them to my modded 7C's and decide which pair gets to stay. My other pair of 7B's will be up for sale soon. Just need new grille cloth and a little TLC. Once all that is done, will put me down to a total of 10 pair of vintage Polks left here. I still am hoping to wrangle myself up the pair of 2.3TL's from Idaho, but I’m afraid my friend @theycallmechad has fallen in love with them. Currently I’m working on a pretty epic subwoofer build (JL 12W7-AE and two 15” PR's in a 4cuft enclosure) that I’ll document in another thread. Then new crossovers for the Talon Khorus pair. Then... It never ends. But it keeps me out of the bar (and my wallet empty...) 🤘🏻🤘🏻

I'll look forward to your upgraded 7B with Peerless comparison to your modded 7C, especially if the 7C has the tl mod. Keep us posted.George / NJ

@JayMX You’re putting a 3 ohm car sub in an enclosure with two fifteens? For home use?? I’d call that epic. My car audio guy has told me in the past not to have different size subs in one enclosure, because of a difference in excursion, and some other potential issues. Says the sound gets muddy.
I’d love to hear that when done, as I’m a big fan of JL subs.
Bars empty wallets too. (; -
First free time I’ve had in about a month and a half to be active here or really even listen to music. Listening to the Beatles
I have retired the Martin Logan’s from service after realizing how good these Eosone’s that I’ve had for a while are. Pretty much everything else remains unchanged though. Marantz CD6004 (Thanks again Drew! Still loving it!), NAD 1155 (Thanks again Mark!), and an NAD C352. Forgot how good this stuff sounds -
@fish357 its a project for my cousin, he had the driver, wanted to put it to use. Initial tests have been promising, plenty of grunt from 30-70 Hz. Crown DriveCore XLS 1502 pushing around 1500W... into 3ohms 😂. Just veneered this week and dyed with India ink today. She's getting close. I’ll do a build thread when I’m all done.You’re putting a 3 ohm car sub in an enclosure with two fifteens? For home use?? I’d call that epic.

My curiosity is piqued. Looks really nice.

Haven’t changed anything but was listening to Dire Straits and thought this was a good video.
