I'm going to have to build a diaphragm tensioning table to rebuild all the panels. I've never done this before, but I think I can do it. I'm going to rebuild their power supplies and filter circuits with all new parts, too. But this will be an adventure and I'm looking forward to it. I know I'll end up learning a ton about how an ESL works and, hopefully, I'll wind up with great speakers at a bargain price. |

I kind of imagine lots of people are thinking about that now. Something like the 800 sets off a chain of $$$ at Head-Fi, doesn't it? As if the phones weren't $ enough. |
