Islander Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 1 hour ago, CECAA850 said: I don't understand why they didn't put handles on the bass bins. They could sure use them. Did you see the photos in the post by a guy with LSIs a year or two ago? He had a bright idea, which was to attach a pair of generic metal handles to the rear panels of his speakers, near the top. The bright part was that he attached a pair of non-swivelling casters to the backs of the speakers, positioned to be less than an inch above the ground. All four bits could not be seen from the front, keeping the speakers looking clean. To move the speakers, he would just tip them back until they lifted off the floor, then it was easy to wheel them to wherever he needed them to be. That system meant that they would normally sit solidly on the floor, with no air space under them, thereby not violating one of PWK’s Eight Cardinal Rules for Great Sound.

codewritinfool Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 are these factory handles or after market ,Aftermarket. I started with a factory bin and added trim and handles and a pocket in the back for a speakon connector. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I solved this by using casters with sockets. When the casters are removed (they just pop out), the speakers sit maybe a dime's thickness off of the floor, and to be honest, in my application and to my ears, they sound the same whether the casters are on or not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I posted earlier, if I were closer and could take a good look at them, I think 12 or $1300 would not be a bad price. Jerry Theonly thing that scares me is you can't see the condition of the trim. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
