Yes @Ian McP had found out that they were a DIY group project by someone who had designed them to be value giant killer of sorts back in the day. very detailed with a great sound stage,perhaps a tiny bit toppy for me but excellent nonetheless . Oh and good ol chipboard cabinetry, but what ever they've done whether it's double llining or bracing they are built uber solid. With a bit of juice they get going, they are a sealed 4 way. They sounded sweet with a vintage Marantz PM 200 but anything above average levels went into clipping. But now with 300watts? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmouss Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 You have to explain the cushions! [emoji14] i was told that if you put cushions on top of speakers it will take care of some reflections. To be honest i don't know. I don't know how to measure to see if there is a difference either.

Definitely no Illuminators and not great lookers in today's market but jeez they can sing. Every couple of months I spend an evening listening to a pair of these ETI4000s at a mate's house. He has re-tuned cabinets and hand-built first order external crossovers with the caps in sand buckets and resistors on racks that he can tune by ear making 0.1R changes. Driven by 750W Musical Fidelity mono amps. I think he's getting the best out of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus ive got the gold 100s in piano ebony and they are just stunning. They shouldn't be covered. I'm taking the cushions off. Thanks guys. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps light reflections from the shiny black surface that get in your eyes, doubt it would be beneficial for sound reflections, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
