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
