    Unfortunately it makes no sense to ship knock down cabs to Europe, but I like the concept of ready built cabs with a nice black piano finish. I wish there also were white and walnut finishes available. Especially white cabs are very popular in Scandinavian countries.

    The maple veneer models will be discontinued. Walnut is back in style again and I've already spoke with PE about adding it.

    The Madisound floorstander with configurable bracing and a subenclosure for the mid was a good idea but the internal volume wasn't quite large enough.

    Great news!

    Any news about when they are available again?

    I would also love to have something in the 18 liter range with a height of 15,5-16" instead of 14" for large sized 2-way with a mid-woofer size of about 6,5-7". It would also be nice with a small floor-stand of about 32 liters to use in a 2-way or 2,5-way with a height of about 35-39" without feet.

    Regards

    That being said, these enclosures have gotten very pricey over the years.....like the double the price they were when they came out right? I'll have to see if I can find a catalogue from 10 years ago or so.
    I wasn't crazy. This is from Catalog #25 10 years ago in 2006.

    Hey guys - sorry, I was out on vacation and just got back in this morning. Looks like Jeff already answered it for you.

    The baffles aren't marked as a discontinued item. Are they sourced differently from the cabinet manufacturer?

    I see the replacement baffles are not discontinued. Will these be available for a while?

    Great news! My intimates utilized PE's curved sided, cherry finished 1/2 cu. ft cabinets. My wife loved them to the extent I was allowed to set them up in our living room where I created a whole new listening system away from the one in my study. I hope, Jeff, the quality from the new supplier is as good as original.
