    Yep! About 90% done writing it, just need to do editing passes on it now and make it polished.

    Those are lovely --although* the tweeters look like something from a ca. 1974 Radio Shack catalog. I assume they don't sound like that, though! ;)

    Slightly more advanced than a Rat Shack tweet!

    Surely that's gotta be staged just for shock value?
    Could you imagine getting under that thing? Just for a dare?

    Or like, for roulette with your friends? Every time someone goes under, someone swipes the strap with a utility knife, and rotate turns. Alternative to playing the game is sledge to the toes, no shoes.

    At least it's 4x and not furring strips?

    The classic redneck car stand is cinderblocks.
    Great way to die. You hear a little cracking sound,
    then you're dead. I saw one of my son's friends
    using them. I immediately yelled at him. Told him
    to borrow my stands and wheel chocks. After that
    he used to come by a couple times a month to get
    them. That and some wrenches. He did buy his own
    after he got out of his teens.

    I did it once when I was 16. I heard the sound and moved fast.
    Nobody wants to be crushed by a 1960 Bel Air. I've owned stands
    ever since. And good tools. My dad had nothing but crap tools.
    I still have craftsman stuff from 1974.

    I see some bare wood on them towers where a fellow with some elbow grease and hole saws from Home Depot could squeeze an extra couple of midrange drivers in each tower. . 💪👍

    Gee, thanks.
    I am now going to require therapy.

    I'll see you those Kenwoods, and raise you this Kenwood abomination. ;)

    The Kenwood Model Seven 1975-1977 MSRP $2,600.00 in 1975 to $2,900.00 in 1977.
    Quite rare. I've never seen a pair of the Sevens.

    They were possibly made to compete with Yamaha's NS-1000's and NS-1000M's which came out the year prior in 1974. The Yamaha's retailed for around $1,000.00 pair. The Yamaha's a used Beryllium domed tweeter and mid-range which could be a little bright and harsh. I heard them a few times.
