[Navy Guy]

Just a friendly reminder that this is coming up soon. Please make sure you have your speakers (at least one) to Mark a week before hand for measurements.

I finally responded to a PM, the forum has been acting weird the last few times I tried.

Also after hearing the driver it's a completely different animal compared to say Tang Band
paper underhung or SB drivers. It sounds "restricted" above 2K, it could just need more
break in or I could be wrong. Perhaps something to think about...

I created the template for the iron driver rebate today. The frame of the driver is not symmetrical. It fits the template perfectly but if you turn the driver 90 degrees it wont fit at all. Fortunately both drivers are the same and there's always an orientation the works.

The cutout and screw hole pattern is the same as the TB W5-1685.

Well I made a DXF of the Eclipse if anybody would like it.

Does anybody have a DXF of the frame for the cutout? If not, I will share mine when I get around to it, unless that is against the rules...

No rules against that

[Navy Guy]

Do we know how many people have entered the contest? Ron

Thanks for the quick verdict.

[Navy Guy]

Yes, use the web price

[Ron_E]

I think the Newark web only pricing should be allowed. It's no different than the way PE lists their prices. There's usually a crossed out "list price" with the actual price labeled "your price". If it's on sale it's labeled "sale price".

[ernperkins]

I have a driver cost question. I was looking at the Newark (previously MCM) 55-5665 woofer. The Newark site lists the cost as shown in the photo. So is the cost $34.99 or $29.75? I don't know any other way to order them these days other than through the Newark website and the "Web Only" price doesn't appear to be a sale.

Thanks,
Ed
