  1. Yeah, I know him through the Eurowerks show and his photo/media/journalism work. Good guy. He's pretty passionate about cars and has some strong opinions which can be quite entertaining.

     

    He's also put together some pretty amazing cars over the years with him and his wife doing much of the work.

  2. It could be the amp or it could be the control piece on top. My limited bit of swapping around parts on my two RW-12D subs has led me to believe that there is some functionality in the amp that depends upon a signal/connection from the display on top for it to work.

    I'm not a tech, that's just my anecdotal experience when fixing one recently.

     

    If someone was to have a functioning sub, they could swap parts on this one to narrow it down further and perhaps pick up a replacement part on eBay.

    Peeling veneer, which will be re-attached. It was already coming off a little when I got them, and I have the other piece that broke off that I can put back on. Any suggestions on what I can use to reattach?

    Wood glue and some large clamps or quick grips. You'll probably need to use a toothpick or putty knife to get in the tight spots with some glue.

    Isn’t the CF series perfect for just laying it over horizontal? I know it’d be ideal to have the horn horizontal but I doubt you’d lose much
     

     

     

    Depends upon the dispersion pattern. If the dispersion pattern is square (90x90 for example) then it wouldn't matter the orientation. But I believe that the Epic Series is 90x60 so the sound will be affected to some degree.

    Now I am very interested in your opinion about the 2’s compared to the 3’s.  I’ve had my 3’s now for a while, and thinking about  some 2’s for a surround setup...

    Obviously, if you have the space a pair of CF3 will be your best match. The CF2 doesn't hit the deep bass as well as the CF3 and it can't play as loud.

     

    That said, if you're using a subwoofer for the bottom octave, CF2 would make an excellent surround option.

    Congrats on the latest score.  Some pics of your Epic Theater, once set-up,  would be nice to see.

    Probably going to be a while. We sold our house and the buyer's closing is about 3 weeks away. Unfortunately, we have not found a new house as of yet so my entire setup is going into storage for a few months.

  7. I found these posted on Facebook Marketplace; looking at the location, I noticed that they were only about 30 minutes from my house. Upon arrival, I took off a grille and checked the ports......yes, we have the longer port tubes.....checked for the OFC wire...yep got that too. Serial numbers indicate a 1994 build date and are sequential. Cabinet condition is excellent with only a few marks. Grilles are in great shape (no pets or kids at this guy's house). Even came with the original sales receipt and brochure. These are Medium Oak just like the other two pairs of CF3 v1 I have.

    Asking price was $600 and I was happy to pay that.

    So my first pair was a bargain, second pair I overpaid a bit and these were priced just right. Sounds like Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
