Glad everything worked out for you, looks good. If or when on next project.

Just wanted to give an update on dad and offer for those who wish to fight the virus. Dad had a heart attack as you probably already know, there are 3 main artery and one is totally clogged and one side of the heart is barely functioning. 3 stints were put in the worst artery but they say he is too weak right now for replacements and recommend he get stronger before another procedure. He is home as of yesterday. I have been folding@home for nearly 20 years for research of diseases and figured it would be a good idea to start a team here if there are some interested. <here> is some information but to make the story short the folding is done in the background of your computer and benefits disease research such as this virus. Its much busier than normal and may be clogged with new folders but is worth it.

Good thinking, its hard to tell from the pictures. Regular auto body Bondo is a good workable filler if needed.

It will work fine, if you want to take it a step further while waiting for the new adapters you can use that first one and file it as a transition from the round adapter to the rectangular horn throat. You can layer another on top and repeat if needed. Let us know how they sound.

And you will be able to see them avoiding bumps on the noggin.

Almost done, the first is always the most difficult. Looks really good.

Gremlins were cool when you threw a 383 Mopar plant in them.

1 vote for safety yellow. Can never be too safe.

Those will be hard to find. Depending on the size of the horn throat once you even it out flush <this> may be a good option.

Using a K-55 ? Pick up two of >these<. Cut a round piece of good plywood to mount on the end of the horn throat large enough to cover the throat and mount the new adapter. Use the adapter as a template for the rest. The adapter will need to be bolted or screwed on, check for clearance issues before installing, glue the new end on the horn, allow to dry and bolt on the adapter and screw in the driver.

The only thing i remember is the Marantz purchased around that time, just over $700 with tax. Dad gave me the Fisher & Thorens and bought me a set of new Jensen's.

Great for any music room.

Lets hope they can weather the storm.

I heard Heresy's at a friends and did not think anything of it, most around here had Altec Lansing products. Huge and expensive was the norm as far as i remember.

Mine hangs in the garage. These guys are just trying to hurt your feelings. The only truly ugly things are the AMC Pacer and chicks with hairy armpits.

Due to Covid 19. Buy your needed components before they run out. https://www.eminence.com/eminence-speaker-llc-covid-19-update-status-3-21-2020/

I have not barred any information and am done here, carry on.

Mount the bullet tweets on top of each other. Other than that they look nice.

I was trying to kindly say figure it out for yourself.

Thank you. If you were not so defensive and every time i try to explain something your buddy shows up and makes stupid comments i would be happy to be of more assistance.

My comments are based on my notes and my experiences, i don't claim to know everything. If you really want more information i suggest keeping a folder either on computer or notepad and visit not only other loudspeaker building forums but google what you read but don't understand. I have no affiliation with either as well and that's how i learned over the years.

I'm not holding your hand here, there is plenty of information available out there on both and tons to learn in the process.

Even the outdated plans are better than the F-20.

How patriotic.

If you bothered to learn more about the designs you would think differently.
