    Correct but that terminal plate doesn't look correct. They never came with those cheap spring loaded clips as far as I'm aware.

    Really :confused:. Didn't think they cut too many corners on those Monitor Series. Been awhile since I looked at the back of an actual pair.

    Massive. I say MASSIVE. My wife would hate to have such big speakers in the house.:D
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D
