Wow! I made the front page again!

Thanks for the kind words. I'd like to thank my wife for allowing me to have all my tools, oh and all the little people who want to be like me :D

J/K - Speakers look great! I think the specs are on your site, but what are the driver specs?

Great looking speakers.
You're a front page craftsman. Congrats
Hearing Doc told me not to buy a good sound system, could hear most of the frequencies if I did. Too much helicopter flying.
