Hi Rob, we all make mistakes chap :eyebrows: Welcome to AoS anyway :)

What kind of music are you playing on those back loaded horns? Interesting thing with the felt pads (i'm assuming that's what they are) scattered about around the driver :scratch: Seen similar on old Acoustic Research speakers, though they used a complete blanket of the stuff, hense the name they gave it ;)

I hope you enjoy your stay at any rate, it's a most excellent forum :wave:

I listen to everything from older stuff, Dire Straits / Mark Knopfler, Clapton, John Martyn etc, Classic Rock, Folk Rock / Seth Lakeman etc, Prodigy / Pendulum, lots of Indie / 90's and 00's Brit Rock. Also soundtracks (Old Boy / Fight Club) and Blue Man Group / Orbital. So a bit of everything.

Sorted, you'll fit right in then :eyebrows: Most on here tend to listen to just about anything :)

A little bit of history as well -

I have done a few bits of diy speakers, and planned in my final year of uni a concept hifi company, with a range of products.-

Wot? ... no string quartets? :scratch:

And you call that a bit of everything, eh? :rolleyes:
