    Time for new speakers, advice please!

    Speakers are like women, hard to tell what someone else likes about them. For $1200 how about diy ? I think you can get a lot more sound for the money.

    Smaller Advents, $30

    I just recapped a pair of small advents and they do sound good. If anyone finds a set that are beyond repair for some reason keep the drivers, the bass drivers and two plate amps make a good set of subs for smaller speakers.
