I like to pull weeds.
Okay, so not "really" free, but I didn't pay anything for any of it. I traded the Bose 901's I had for it, which were also free. Not pictured are 2 inexpensive new/unopened FM antennae and 4 new/unopened 7" reels of blank recording tape.
I even got to demo the Sansui's at the guy's house, not bad huh? The bass response made me say, "OH". Warm and full, I wasn't expecting that. The midrange was there, but the highs were pretty much nonexistent. These do not have horns. So, they'll bypass a place in the living room for today and and will go straight out to the garage so I can make a list of caps I'm going to need.
The plan today is to bring them back in the living room and jack them into the Scott 222c. To see how they may be placed, see image below. These will surely do fine until I can get the Wharfedale Super 12 project back on schedule. See image below for size comparison to the SP-3500's.
I also drug home a pair of empty enclosures. He told me what they were, but I can't remember now. I even got to see the woofers. They were highly badass and were edgeless, no foam or cloth or rubber surrounds holding them to the baskets. Perched high on top were electrostatic panels, but those got sold off and he's attempting to sell the woofers. These enclosures are built better than most of our furniture in our homes. Solid as concrete and I like the design. I got both grill frames too. They're for the woofers only, so they're going to need some modification to do anything with them. Not ported, sealed.
All in all it was a great day! I'm going to drag the 1500's into the garage now and tear one apart to see the goodies.
