They did, ML made them stop. I assume they have some type of exclusive deal with Amazon. I don't care where they sell them, as long as they don't turn into some kind of mass produced made in china kinna thing.

I called some time back and asked about this. I was told that Amazon was authorized to sell the two bottom line speakers.

See, that bothers me. For the price and technology it seems like they'd last better than that. I wonder if I can buy the stuff ant rebuild them. Can't be much harder than reconing a JBL woofer.

That's kind of what I was thinking. And they do have the weather strip stuff on them. In fact when I called ML Jeff said that I should check that foam and make sure it's still spongy, if not get some from Lowe's and replace it. I may go ahead and replace it anyway to make sure they stay good and...

They do work perfectly, I havn't had trouble with one. I reset the panel where it belongs and the only unsealed part of the woofers was were the floor spikes screw in, that's just the way they are made. As far as I can hear they sound perfectly fine. I'm still not so sure it's all that bad, as...

Well if that's the case they may have to go back on eBay and I'll have to move on I think. I have not heard any problems with them. yet

I like that. I also keep looking at the black side rails and think how much better they would look in a red mahogany. I also need to figure out the best way to clean the matte black areas.

Good, I may just remove it as it easily gets dusty and I like the look without it. Now I need to get some little ML squiggle logo plates edit Do you people have any idea how easy it is to leave a black roll of electrical tape sitting on the black cabinet beside the woofer when you put the...

Now a question. I've seen this before but I'll ask, can anyone tell me consequences good or bad of removing the black cloth from the woofer grill?

Okay, if you followed my opening thread with the purchase and delivery of my new (to me) reQuest speakers, you will remember my mentioning a rattle/whistle noise. This was generally only on hard bass notes but really prominent on very low notes at high volume levels. Well today I lean one of my...

I don't think this rule will make my Electro-Voice Aristocrats work properly. Don't think it would have worked for the Patricians either. :D

New Update Well they arrived at the shipping dock this morning and I and one of the other guys in the shop went across the street and got them. I did an initial check by slicing open the boxes and peering in as far as the 3" of bubble wrap they were in. So, not being able to stand it I left...

Update I got a call from the guy in Fla. and DHL won't take them, they are too heavy. So he's sending it Saia Motor Freight for $40 more which is less than if I met him in Pensacola. The big plus is that Saia's terminal is across the street from where I work, so when they come in I can just...

I don't 100% believe that. Now as I said the Bryston has a bass response that the Carver M1.5t can't touch but that's because of the lack of transformers and capacitors that the Bryston has. The 1.5t has them, just not massive like the 4b. When Bob engineered these amps he went for a sound of a...

I just spoke to John the owner on the phone. And he's pretty anal about his packing and is as desiring as I am for them to arrive safely because he doesn't want to deal with an insurance company. They seem to have a lot of experience packing and shipping. Everything else is on DHL. I'm...

If not, FatJ will be getting a PM :eek: :D

Yeah I don't know how that happened. I'm going to ask the guy tomorrow when we talk to charge my CC if he ended the auction early.

I'll put the Bryston on the subs and the Carver on the panels. With no transformers the Carver doesn't have the low end umph that the Bryston does, so it should be a pretty good match. I'll have to start reading the tweak sections soon.

What I have for now is a Bryston 4b and a Carver M1.5t

Well, it looks like I am now an official member of this forum.....
