    Had no clue. My friend in HS would play hooky and watch Headbangers Ball on MTV think it was.

    If I torqued too much or too little, that original -194 I designed them from would make the nastiest sound.

    I had to super glue 2 ss washers under each screw hole to get them air tight enough yet not deform or sizzle on certain frequencies.

    I think this is what is known as a Mandela effect?

    Same thing as Loony Tunes (not toons), JIF, not Jiffy peanut butter, etc.
    See profile for rigs. Nothing else here.

    That's quality manufacturing.

    I've had other projects going on.

    Tools were everywhere on the floor. Kind of congested.

    I put in a new transmission in my Toro recycler personal pace mower, and it is DEFECTIVE. :s I told them about it, and they said to return it free of charge for review. I ordered another one, and it is arriving today. :) I hope I don't feel a momentary stoppage point like I did with the other one. It was a soft stoppage, so I thought the 190cc motor would overcome it, but it didn't. It SUCKED. The left tire would propel, but that was it. I took the geared wheel off and put a free-rolling wheel on, and the mower was 90% or more better, almost like new. I could pull it back EASY. The new trans wouldn't let the left tire roll back or turn at a different rate than the right.

    I also had my F150 4-shocks replacement project underway. That entailed one missing the bushings and a replacement shock waiting period for a few days too.

    When this is done, or not, I should be replacing those bezels soon.

    I have to check on my NAD C370 or (372?) int. amp, Newform speakers, and the wires connected to them on the speaker B connection. My Polk SDA-SRS2s are on speaker A, and they work fine. B) They're still AWESOME sounding! <3

    I heard a crackling sound from the Left Newform speaker a few months ago. The Bass cut out then. Then later, the sound cut out completely on the left. I'll check that out at the same time. :)

    Finally got around to installing these plates in the 2.3’s. Originally thought it was going to be a pain to do. It’s actually very easy to replace the plates on the tweeters.1vtdy093xava.jpeg

    Great job. Enjoying the pics. I still prefer the Silverface look on the stock cabinets.
