    Just for that, I'm not even going to lend him my Mork & Mindy suspenders for his big parade next month.

    Whoever did it was located in the midwest, as indicated by the Menards Concrete Form which I guess isolates the dimensional driver from the backwave of the stereo driver.

    I confess I'd like to hear these 🤣

    According to the owner, the driver that is isolated with the tube must be the SDA driver because it only plays with the interconnect cable connected. He did not build them and is trying to sell them for $200. I'd get them just for grins if I was close. If they sounded like crap you could easily sell the parts for that much.

    OCD alert. The rear driver is mounted -90 degrees off in the cabinet compared to the front drivers. :#

    It looks like it started life as a Monitor 10B (sticker top right) and someone got the binding post cups and crossovers from a pair of SDA II and tinkered. An abomination. :D
