    yes i did a little wrapping there.

    Make some ingots, sell them, and get yourself a miniDSP.

    I wonder how many complete projects could be made from everybody's stockpiles combined?

    WOW, you have as the say "broken the barrier" you have faced the truth of how much stuff you have...brave!

    However, the first rule of speaker stockpiles is we dont talk about speaker stockpiles, the second rule of speaker stockpiles is ......

    No citizen should hoard so much copper.

    Consider it an investment, like gold.

    Yes Lowell, there is great shame in that collection. I will help you assuage that shame by adopting the larger coils - say the ones between 2.8 and 7.0mH. You will feel great relief and a sense of calm in knowing that those coils are going to a fine home, filled with woofers needing low crossover points (cue the Sara McLaughlin music).

    I stand here at the ready, in service to my community.

    You're welcome.

    ;)
    Sniff..thanks Marty...sniff. I do have some biguns I will share. I'll pm you later.
