Guest audioslave Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 As I mentioned in a previous post, I had some grills and foam tweeter rings made up for the 10pi's and 11's. I received the prototypes for the grill and they are almost perfect. I don't have a firm price from my foam guy yet, he can only give me a ballpark figure. With that figure I can estimate a selling price of $25-$35 for a pair of grills and a pair of tweeter rings . If enough interest is generated, I'll increase my initial order which will decrease the price a little. Drop me an email at Jschuld1@rochester.rr.com to let me know if you want some. I had planned on posting some pictures of the grills, but my wife took the camera to work. Check back for them.Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brian_D Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 I posted this last time this was brought up, but no one replied, so I guess I'll ask again...Is this foam the same type of 1-piece molded open-cell foam as the 17 and 18? If so, I would be interested in getting some made for those models. $25 - $35 each is very reasonable and I would be in the market for two pair of 17's.I could provide an original for measurement, so long as it is not destroyed.-Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roundhome Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Hello I would be willing to send in a set of AR 9 tweeter and mid foam rings for examples. It would be nice to get this started for all the forum members. we could use a sorce for them. As far as the rings for the woofers, just strips would work. we could just form them around to fit the woofers. This would save on cost and waist. I would be interested in at least 10 sets of AR 9 foams and strips for woofersThank youJim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Brian_D Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 I'll get dimensions to you later today, probably. There is a recess in the grill for the woofer surround. It's a ring aproximately 3/4" deep and about 1 1/4" wide. (8.5" diameter)I couldn't get the pictures you posted to come up... Could you e-mail them to me? briandavid78 at yahoo dot com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest audioslave Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Here's the pictures. The grill is a prototype from the foam company. It was a little to big but the adjustments have been made. The second picture is of a tweeter ring that I made. It's not perfect, but the one's I'm having made up should be. The tweeter rings I'm having made up will be the same color as the one pictured.I'm also awaitling the outer rings for the 12" woofer and rings for the 8" woofer.Jeff165.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
