    Big thanks to @dkfreebird for delivering a fresh set of CRS+

    I Want to listen to them bone stock this weekend and methodically perform each mod individually as I go.

    They are pin/blade so just making sure I can use the dreadnaught with the factory terminals by connecting the only the single pin to red/yellow and grey/brown?

    I played it safe and used wire nuts and speaker cable to the blades as well. Didn't wanna fry my amp.

    The larger 8" Dia. 6061 alloy tube showed up today. Round 3 coming up soon...
    Will only be 3.5" tall this time and match my ribs lol.
    Going to spin out some custom Neutrik housings too...

    Will the transformer generate heat?

    No heat no matter how hard I've try :) . I've used high current 1200 wpc monoblocks on my dreadnaught equipped sda's for many years with no issues.

    Got two "new" sets of speakers yesterday. T-50 polks and a nice set of M7's w 2500's. Already glued the magnets on the M7's and took them both out for transport. The 3/4 ton Dodge rides a bit rough. I am kind of amazed at the sound completely stock T-50's. A little E.Q. and man. That speaker should not be so cheap! Of course I never even listened to the M7's. they got taken apart and parts ordered for right away.
