    Don has the keys to the castle... he has been MIA. Hopefully he will respond to your request and get you set up.

    The project has been on hold for several months while we worked out who would do the final construction. I believe we have it worked out as a team effort and will begin actual construction in a couple of months as we are waiting on one team member to complete his new shop.

    To all that have watched this project and those who have contributed... sorry for the delays, but it has grown into quite an impressive project and a monumental task from those tiny seeds that Mike originally planted. We believe the wait will have been worth it.

    The proposed project is a fine idea, and will correct a wrong that has existed for too long!

    I propose that we name the project the Save A McRitchie Foundation. My JBL inventory is a bit low at the moment, but do have the following components available for possible donation to the cause: pair D123s, pair H91 horns; pair 2420 bodies (need diaphragms). I may be able to scare up a pair of D130s as well.

    Cool Idea!

    Shoot, anybody can buy "off-the-shelf" JBL speakers, we need to custom design a pair for Don that speaks to our extreme perspectives!
    Let's see what he can accomodate.

    Well I've got a cabinet shop that's equal to norm's on "this old house" and lots of 12 and 15" alnico 22XX baskets...my speciality was building variants of the 4530 basshorn with hardwood plywood. I once made some for a theater that had an integral 12" horn loaded mid and 2390 lens. It sounded so nice they were stolen within a month... Perhaps a corner ( aka "C" ) version and using the 1.5" 2450SL with the 2352 mid-size bi radial?

    Simple 2 way and ALL horn loaded yet has a somewhat negotiable spousal acceptance factor..?

    sub

    ps- it's molson ( with an "n" ) and only chilled export ale and bradours accepted... I'll bring the local 8.5% belguim ale to compare.....HIC
