    No worries, thought I'd offer. I have one of those whiffers too. Keeps me in check. God bless her.

    seriously, I don’t know how I missed this . . . Oh, yeah I do, there’s only 24 hrs in a day

    Any chance you got 2 for a pair of 2B Studios?

    ****, I HATE being late to the party …

    I got you covered. Got a few extra for the straglers, myself included.

    My luck a set of clean CRS+ show up in my area and no goodies to throw at them.

    Gotta ask. Any relation to Pittdog?

    For some reason that I can’t explain, I’m drawn to these even though my 2B studios are almost identical… Please send link

    Surely someone here offers the Basic Xover service. Hardest part is getting big caps to squeeze into small boards.

    Everybody will get notice in 4 weeks as I'm only working on them next 3 weekends.
    I take Paypal or MO.

    I am going to leave a set blanked at the magnet holes and maybe try a ring radiator
    just for kicks.

    Luckily, I scored a pair of gimpods boards a while ago. . . Admittedly, I’ve been dragging my feet trying to come to terms with multiple speaker choices and weather or not I should proceed with the 2B upgrades

    Probably too late to get in on a pair of these, but if you end up with an extra pair let me know.

    Looking forward to a build thread. Gotta showcase the other goodies.

    What color you going with?

    I believe another member went with a pewter like color? At the risk of being a copy cat going with that. Sometime in April going to post a review of VR3's latest greatest x-over build. I think in a post you referred to it as "epic"? In my mind doesn't begin to describe. It is that good!

    That's great news. Hopefully you've discovered DynaMat and can point it out to other 1.2 owners.

    Is the company that did that for you in the DMV area?

    Yes, https://easternplatingcompany.com/

    I used a method/jig invented by another forum member to make the face surface baby butt smooth. I don't think that jig is still available though.

    If you leave them as is , they will have a very nice sunburst effect.

    Got my pair installed in my SDA Studio 2Bs this afternoon (ooh, shiny). Mark Knopler's Shangri-La sounds even clearer with these in place. Aural bliss continues. Thanks @xschop!

    Agreed; all great mods. My personal favorites are DK's dreadnaught and the wealth of his knowledge that he so kindly shared.
