Saba green cone drivers, bought of here few months ago as some Reso cabinets advertised at same time, got the drivers but not the cabinets. I haven't the skills or time to start from scratch . The slightly darker tweeter has slight blemish on cone near mounting holes. £70 prefer collection from South Cheshire.
Thanks

If anyone wants to get into DIY experimenting then these babies are perfect. Even just the 8" units mounted in a simple baffle will give real enjoyment. They are very sensitive so just be cautious not to over power them. They will play with 1 watt.

No problem. Most come in from German Ebay at a price above what you are asking and one will probably get caught for 20% VAT on top

I think you may have reached the extent that AOS readership is willing to dabble with DIY on speakers. (no disrespect intended :) )
Those drivers are very good value for money so I would suggest other sites to advertise as well. There's the dreaded ebay and also a UK site that is called HiFi forsale which is free. Not sure I'm allowed to post links here.

Thanks again Chris for the comments , they do seem a bargain and if my cunning plan had worked out with the kit they would have been something special. Don't really want to go the ebay route if can help it and if wasn't desperate for cash they would be put away safe just in case another kit pops up.

You might want to try open baffle with these. I think Lampizator was using Saba's in one of his projects.

Should you want to try them in a TQWP I have a pair of boxes (which I have built for Philips AD9710) which you are more than welcome to pick up from London if you like.
You would need to adjust the front baffle. It would be a nice experiment which might turn out great.

If not £70 is great price for these.
I would have bought them myself but I need to get rid of speakers not collect more.

Hi Greg
Thanks for the offer but I now need to thin speakers down as well. I'll keep trying here bit longer , I'm sure someone will make them into something very special.
Thanks

These were stuck in storage during some diy, things have moved on and remembered they were under the spare bed I'm not going to do anything with them so bump again, would prefer someone to collect.
Thanks
