Hello AC and Guests,
This was first posted in GR's Circle a couple of days ago. Today I recieved a PM suggesting that this would be a good place to re-post. Hope I'm not out of bounds by posting a donation thread in the classifieds?
As many of you have likely heard, Gary Dodd of Dodd Audio has recently been through the ringers regarding his health and as a result has accrued significant medical care debt. After reading about his circumstances it was heavy on my mind and heart to offer a hand. After tossing a couple of ideas around I decided on donating these flat packs. If you, or maybe someone you know can find a home for a pair I know that Gary would be extremely grateful for it. Thanks.
Up for grabs are
(5) pairs (2) pairs of X-LS Encore enclosures as flat packs.
3 down, 2 to go! Please spread the word. If the remaining flat packs get spoken for within the next 2 weeks, I'll gladly donate another (5) pair. A drop in the bucket I'm sure, but every little bit helps. Front and rear baffles are 1 1/8" MDF and the top, bottom and sides are 3/4" MDF. (Premium Super-Refined MDF)
Starting donation on each pair is $25.00. You can donate as much as you'd like on top of that though.
100% of the proceeds will go to Gary. Just send your PayPal payment to Danny @ info@gr-research.com. For a FedEx Ground shipping quote, please send me your zip code via PM, or email. If you would prefer to look up shipping rates yourself, the package weight is 32lbs and the dimensions are 9" x 16" x 11. Shipping from 80233.
If you'd like to swap the Encore baffles for the Classics, just let me know.
The X-LS Encore kit is $149.00 and the X-LS Classic kit is $109.00. (KILLER deals, btw) You'll need to call Danny @ 940-592-3400 to order the kits.
This is a link to a small speaker shootout that included the X-LS Encore with XO build and No Rez upgrades.

Another added benefit to your donation is that in purchasing the kits you are helping Santiago as well.
Thanks,
Ruben
