Woofers and Tweeters Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 From the ad: "I have 8 of these for sale, $100 each. The picture with all 8, face forward, shows you all the nicks and scratches. I am told this is a high end audiophile accessory that can help damp magnetic fields by placing it on various electronic equipment like preamplifiers and amplifiers. Also adds mass to dampen vibration. My dad was a high-end HiFi guy. I found these hidden as we were dismantling his system. One has tape on the bottom, which you can see in one of the pics. Comes from a smoke-free home." Okay, these came from a smoke free home. IMHO, one will, more than likely, experience audio euphoria if the $100 is used to buy something to smoke while listening to good music. Here is a picture of the door stop... 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just paid $10.49 to HDTracks for all nine Beethoven symphonies. Just imagine what I could get for the remaining $89.51 saved by not buying one of those. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did well, plus you get to keep your brain cells. Quote Just imagine what I could get for the remaining $89.51 saved by not buying one of those. You can get a pair of FE-103 if the ad is real. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Ok you morons.... those are the "db-5" version. Everyone knows that it's the db-3 version that produces more "air" and reduces our ever-present horn honk. The db-5 version is better suited for planar speakers. Sheesh.... do I have to drag you all back to Audiophile Kindergarten?? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Well... if you have to ask... then I'm not going to waste my breath.... unless you want to fork over $100 to me for the privilege of knowing. I'll accept cash, paypal or gold bullion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some like theses for sale. I custom make them and are priced the same as the used ones in the ad. The ones I make are coated in a sound damping and scratch resistant material. I offer them in pairs that are calibrated, one for HF and one for LF. Since most of us have more than one system, I give people a price break if they order more than one set. Let me know how many you want. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
