That is some amazing artwork there Jeff!!!!! Tiny little details, GREAT!!!!!!

Hi everyone,

My Dad has asked me to help him buy new speakers because I'm a classical musician and have better/more trained ears than him.

He has a set of old Acoustic Research AR48s. The foam around the mid and woofer has completely disintegrated. After doing some reasearch online it appears that the foam is replacable.

Is it worth it to fix the foam, & (cones if neccesary) or even buy new drivers? Detail at http://simplyspeakers.com/

I wanted to make a post here because I may potentially be sinking a lot of money into this, and I have very little knowledge on the vinyl realm, and stereo equipment in general. Just want to make sure I don

Congratulations Jeff on your work being published in Stereophile. I especially like the DUP reference.

RealTraps has announced a clever new use and mounting arrangement for their existing line of bass traps and acoustic panels.

MiniGobos are available in a variety of sizes and configurations to favor either isolation, bass trapping, or broadband absorption. MiniGobos are based on our standard line of MiniTraps, MicroTraps, and MondoTraps, using hinges to join two or more panels together as a single unit that's stable, easy to handle, and self-supporting.
