Not in the 'burgh, but willing to ship....
« on: December 17, 2012, 07:34:18 PM »
I have a pair of modified Realistic Minimus 77 speakers for sale in black.  I'm asking $75 plus shipping (way less than I have in them).  Overall, in very good condition with some very minor paint scratches. 

The Minimus 77 is the big brother to the famous Minimus 7.  I upgraded the xover/woofer with a kit from "litekeys" on eBay.  The new woofers are round & the originals were more of a squarish shape with the mounting holes out in the corners, so some fabrication was necessary.  I simpley Dremeled out the outer edge of the old woofers (they were blown last month on the 1812 Overture~) & epoxied them to the new woofer.  The finished product that sounds great & takes quite a bit more power while sounding cleaner than the old speaker did.

Here's a video of a white pair I sold earlier this year; same speakers, same mods:




Pics of the pair for sale:

Here's another video with them run by the CarverFest tube amps in monoblock configuration.  The song is "Sinister Minister" by Bela Fleck & the Flecktones:
