I sold the 7B's a little while back. I never hooked them up. Just have SDA's and Monitor 10's now. But I would liked to have tried this mod but never thought about it really.

@marvda1 I can dig it. I've seen alligator covered speakers but never lizard. Check these out...I also have black and burgundy but these are worn the most.

Here at the CCP, it's a right of passage, a badge of honor to have gone through the fire, tempered yet unscathed. Well done my friend.

Russ I believe the side firing woofers are suppose to be on the inside firing towards each other with that particular model.(?)2ch rig: Speakers: Magnepan LRS w/Magna Riser stands Preamplifier: Parasound P5 Amplifier: Parasound A23 CDP: Pioneer DV-563A Cables: Wireworld Equinox 7 XLR ICs, Wireworld Ultraviolet 7 USB, AudioQuest Q2s, AudioQuest NRG X(preamp)

The one thing I have found with the side firing woofer speakers is that it is completely dependent upon the room itself as to what actually sounds better. FWIW. YMMV.
@recoveryone - I have this sneaking suspicion that you like bass....😉😀

That makes since. They sounded great firing at each other in my room.
