Mmmmmm..... A project that keeps them busy and out of my hair is good.... But the giant speakers might take some negotiation.

As long as they don't stumble on to a pair of Altec A7s or some big Voice of the Theaters', most speakers are small, relatively .
My Vandersteen Threes are only four feet tall.

I had a set of A7s for a few years. By the time I got done doing all of the mods on them, they weighed 280 lbs a piece and stood five feet tall.
Let me see if I can find the pictures...........

One of the fancy technical terms that they would learn at AK is "WAF," which stands for "Wife Acceptance Factor." As a result of some of that factor, many of the negotiations about which you speak have taken place here.

Never had that problem, even when I was driving stacked Advents, as long as I was happy Florence went along.

Why can't I post pics, now?
I found a picture of my A7s to scare the bejesus out of Barbara with......
But, I can't load them and my computer tells me the problem is on this end, at politicalchat.org.
WTF?
Let me try some other pics...........

Here is one of the A7s.
IIRC, I measured them at 56" H x 28" W x 24" D, And they weighed in at 288 lbs. each after the bass horn flares were filled with sand.
I sometimes miss them.

Got it to work, but had to try multiple times for each image. Anyone else having this issue?
