Comming from from the great city of Lawrence KS, should be in Tucson by Monday. The 'Logans and the main rig will be singin' again!! Only $138 shipped for free. Thanks Melody at Martin Logan, I'll do a full pic series of the process. It's not very difficult, though the flat-matte formed structure always gets scuffed a little. I replaced one woofer 2 years ago, the foam lets go in the AZ weather and A/C doesn't help being dry and all that.

I probably could have re-foamed them but, since they're my babies, new it is. I guess I'm lucky that I can still get new parts for such an old speaker (approx. 1985). They said my serial #'s are from long before they started their database in '89. Top notch customer service *Hi5*. It's impossible to overdrive the 'stat panels, the voltage step-up tramsformer circuits will fail first, I'm gonna be a happy camper very soon :D

You said it Spanky!! Big 10-4 on the pics here and over at ST, there's not many of these speakers still floating around, most folks are like me, they keep them forever, which makes me realize what a true nut-job I am, I'll be hookin' up the Yammie MX-800U this weekend to get it ready for duty. There is something unreal about those big Yamaha amps from that era with current sucking speakers, as I'm sure you Yamaha guys know. *check**check*

I think the only thing that would make me switch would be a double stacks of Quad57's with some tubes *hearts* I'm ready to be begiuled again.
