YUM!!
That looks yummy. I had a little queso with my pretzels and half sandwich today and boredom sets in.
Driving the family's LTD wagon over to global auto wreckers off higgins looking for a 4 barrel manifold and carb for the 383 in my custom 880, no luck. Get back in the Ford and the super sized forklift speeds in and scoops up the car by the drivers side, out comes the staff accusing me of throwing alternators over the fence. Like I need a bunch of alternators right ? They searched my car and tool box finding nothing but a lost customer for life.
The u joint went out on that thing months after. Kinda sad.

If you can return it feeling scammed why don't you. That is a good stack of cash.

Dayton makes a slim 10, you look tight on space there.
Another option use 2 subs for stands.

Wind ripped off 2 rows of shingles over the gutter and rain and more rain.
Construction and roofing contractors are on vacation around here. Try again tomorrow.

There was a whole line of amplifiers that operated in that fashion. I think that it was back in the 1970s or 1980s. I cannot remember the brand name. They looked pretty good, but didn't survive.
I have one, it's modified. Nirvana Electronic Works. Too dark for a picture right now.

Highly unlikely it's the cabinet material, glue joint a leak test would have found maybe.
Check the tinsel leads on the woofer being too long and rubbing during high power.
Loose wires tapping the cabinet.
Glue joints though model is not known for having any.
These are the normal things anyway.

Not worth spending any money repairing this piece.

Probably installing knob and tube again too, more separation and depth.

Hmm seems complicated to me..i want to clarify that i'm not into technical things or fixing electronic things by my owm but i will try to do my best .
In the meanwhile is it safe to play at moderate levels where i dont hear distortion?
Trying to save you some steps, pull the woofer and find nothing you will be right back to square one likely repairing stripped screw holes along the way.

Check for air leaks before you remove anything.
Get some vacuum line 3/16 or so 5 ft more or less. Burn a 20-25 Hz frequency and get the cone moving a bit and with one end of the hose to your ear fish for leaks around the cabinet.
If you don't find anything the woofer or other may be the cause.

Looking for Epic CF-4 Speakers in Washington State/ Oregon. Hoping to someday find a set and complete my husbands collection. Thank you all for your help! Much appreciated!
Hoarder eh? If you absolutely need more speakers Hifi shark will be your best friend, just google and search.

I have a pair of Promedia Klipsch 2.1 speakers that are on my desk in my room. The heater vent that i have on the wall is near the desk. It's down and to the left about a couple feet away. The vent itself never gets really hot. Is it still ok? Please reply
If it never gets hot it could be a return, if it never gets hot you answered your own question.
Unless it's blowing heat right at it it's nothing to worry about.

Forte is a great choice, if you like loud or filling a bigger room Chorus series may be worth a wait.

jason str , Yes... am holding the speaker leaning down while scraping. Can I use acetone on the cover? Is it "felt"?
Never tried that, rubber cement is forgiving just clean up a bit and apply.
New dust caps are available as well if you prefer to use new ones, just go up a size.

Keep your scraping shavings out of the voice coil in the center.

I've had a MiniDSP running for some time now, no problems. Velcroed behind the audio rack and works like a charm.
