If you're still in the area come by and listen before they ship. I'll post here when I'm ready for the demo.

What's the plan Rick?  Were they empty cabinets or something?  I can't imagine someone gutting a perfectly good speaker.

These are cabinets for a new array that I've designed. AV123 array owners will be offered a trade-in to upgrade their speakers.

At first I thought those were LS9 cabinets, but those had 9 Neo Drivers a side. Which are these?

It's a new design with ten 6.5" woofers and fourteen ribbon / planar tweeters. The crossover is via active DSP and four channels of amplification will be needed. I'll be doing a local demo before they ship.

:o
So "LS14's"?? (Not sure you're planning on the same Neo drivers)

This could get interesting......

Sounds like a proper design is coming for these.

I realized from a PM I received that my original post was confusing. This is a totally different design than the AV123 speakers and my intention was to offer an upgrade path for AV123 owners via a trade-in. I've never offered trade-ins before so this is something new for Selah Audio.
