    Some teaser pics for you @gudnoyez

    After Steve sees this audioporn, there's going to be a cold water shortage in the Davenport metro!!


    Nice work, Ryan!

    Thanks guys. It has definitely been a very enjoyable project.
    I have enjoyed it so much that my wife and I were talking about putting serious consideration into doing whole speaker refurbishing.

    They aren't perfect and considering that they are 24 years old, I am not in any way disappointed with how they came out.

    Wow Ryan to say I'm not excited is an understatement! I look forward to heading west on I-80 hopefully hooking up with ambiophonics to give him his Sda's.

    The Wife who has been totally cool about it, and my grandson whom you have already met last time will be showing up Sunday afternoon. We plan on checking out and having lunch at the Bass Pro shop, then paying you guys a visit.

    I look forward to hoisting those beauties in the back of my truck. I forgot that Monday is a holiday so besides doing some heavy lifting I will be doing some heavy listening. So see you Sunday I will be calling you in a day or two. Oh yeah thanks Teekay for bringing these to my attention, I will keep them and cherish them forever :) I do love my wife never thought she would let me get em I owe her big time!

    Beautiful Mod on these. And might I add absolutely cherry looking!! I'd love to purchase these but I'm in the same boat I'd have to sell my Ic's and my CRS's and maybe even my 10a's and the bad thing is I'd like to have All of them.Ive committed to having a full restoration on my Yamaha M-80 done in November.So it cramps my spending a bit.I live about 30 minutes NW of you and would love to give them a listen sometime if possible.

    Thanks again Steve. I really hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed listening to them and upgrading them.

    Ryan did a fantastic job rehabbing these from top to bottom the amount of time he spent to get these beauties back to thier glory was well worth it. The man takes pride in everything he does.

    Should he take up rehabbing speakers as a side project he will be successful, he's got a lot going on in the future but should he decide to rehab more I would highly recommend him.


    I have been up since 5:30 am they are still in the back of my truck looking sexy as ever just waiting for someone to come help me bring them downstairs, it won't be until later this afternoon. The wife has been supportive the whole time and my grandson wanted to tell you Ryan thanks for his speakers that he will get in 30 years when it's time for me to pass them on.

    I will post pictures of these beauties soon. Once again Ryan thanks and awesome job, at least they are only 168.9 miles east of you should you want to check em out again :D

    Congrats to both of you on what sounds like another successful transaction here at the ol' PF FM! Glad you got them, Steve. Looking forward to hearing your impressions once you get them set up and properly placed.

    Woo-Hoo!! :smiley:
