  1. SOLD FEB 1st.

     

    For sale: A pair of Cherry RF-5s.

     

    They are not in mint condition, but Overall very good condition. There is a minor chip on the back top of one speaker (see photos). The grills are missing the top pegs. All other pegs are in tact. (Didn't take photos, :facepalm). There is also a slight crinkle in one of the woofers.

     

    Unfortunately, not consecutive serial numbers and I do not have the boxes. Also, shipping would be quite tough.

     

    They sound very, very good in my listening room.

     

    Located near Cedar Rapids, IA. Zip code 52203.

     

    Looking for 450 dollars.

     

    The RSW-12 and Chorus II's are NOT for sale.


    Grill photos added towards the bottom.

    It's not the magnets.  It's the grill itself affecting the air movement and performance of the passive.

     

    I'm not sure about that, the woofers would have to travel significantly out to impact the grills. I'll probably never have the volume levels in that room high enough for that to happen. However, that is a good point, and I'll double check for rub marks after a few sessions.

     

    The beauty of the magnets is also, that I could just pull the grills off to listen and replace when done. They stick well, but once you get an edge lose, the rest of the grill falls off and the magnets stay attached.

    They do look nice, but I have to wonder how something like that affects the performance?

     

    While I don't have measurement tools. I have heard ZERO difference on my "test tracks" after this "mod". I don't think the magnets are THAT powerful to impact the driver on the other side of the speaker.

  4. Hi guys,

     

    A problem developed with my Ampsandsound Stereo 15 tonight. When I started it for the first time since last weekend, there was now a noticable feedback buzz instead of the usual dead silence. As i approached the unit, I discovered that the feedback became louder when I moved my hand towards the 12AX7 position. As I moved my hand back and fourth from the 12ax7 I could control the "volume" of the feedback. So, I powered down the unit and replaced it with another 12ax7. It also exhibited the same behavior. I don't believe this is any sort of ground issue, as it was perfect for nearly half a year before today.

     

    Anyone have any ideas?
