Thanks Jay

That’s as pictured, without a bottom, correct?

Where would one place the crossover? Will you guys offer a matching, separate box behind the baffle with pre-drilled holes for wires and binding posts? Or does the kit consist of solely of baffles, drivers, and crossover parts?

Without reading the whole thread, I was wondering how much room these need? Would 14x18 work?

My room is 12x20 and they work exceptionally well in it.

The number of pages in this thread is intimidating....has a total cost for flat pack + drivers + crossover parts + ?? = $$$$ been worked out yet?

True - maybe we should split the Super 7 Kit posts into a separate thread....

Drivers are roughly $3500. So the upper baffle/flat pack, crossover parts, and misc speaker parts costs would need to be added in.

Note, that estimate on the drivers would include the 4 SW12 16FR's and 2 A370PEQ servo amps

I was gonna say if you have the OB subs then it won't cost that much. I'm already saving my pennies.

mlundy57 · « **Reply #450 on:** 29 Jul 2018, 06:06 pm »

You’re still looking at $1,800 for the drivers plus crossovers, wire, tube connectors, flatpacks, shipping, and finishing. Definately a significant savings over building the H-Frames too but still a chunck of change.

True. But a hell of a lot cheaper than $20K!

Thanks for the update. I had a feeling those caps would come around. Price of admission is pretty high though. The same can be said for the Dueland caps. Great caps, but man they're pricey.

Speaking of the Super-7's again...

I have dissembled my listening system and won't have a new one built for a while. The new listening room at the new shop will be 16 feet wide and 38 feet deep. But it will take a lot of work to build it into the ideal dedicated room that I need it to be. It's being torn down to bare studs.

So this gorgeous pair of Super-7's are setting idle, covered up in a corner, and not being played.

I need to find a new home for this pair. They deserve to be playing for someone. Make me a serious offer and I might take it.

Danny, I was looking to see if there was a photo showing the Plate Amp(s) and their enclosures for these, but didn't see one. By chance, do you have a photo of one or both?

(trying to see the setup and how easy it would be, in my room, to swap out RCA's from the HT vs the 2 channel rig)

Yup.
for guys who don't already have subs, I've been working the idea of having these drop directly on the top of one of our modular sections or possibly having a different top for the non modular duals, .

I'd love to see the mock up of this. I have H-Frames that I built, so they suck. I'd replace them with yours if I decided to build out the Super 7.

Took the plunge and ordered Danny's Super 7's. Can't wait. Now I need to get serious about moving my current speakers.

Thanks Danny! Eagerly looking forward to these speakers. I remember how much I enjoyed them at RMAF.

Oh, and....

Happy Birthday Danny!
