When i measured these i wasn't including the overhang on the top.they are indeed valencia cabs..but...they must be very early models????

415 biflex
602 Duplex
604 Duplex

When you click post make sure you use the advanced,and just scroll down to Manage Attachments...

Most of us use a photo hosting site for images/photos and then just post the IMG code from Photobucket,Flickr,Picasso,Image Shack,etc...

For .pdf's use the "Manage Attachments"

this is the link

Yes that's fine.But it would be nice to have a title say "Speaker Cabinets 859A" so Folks know what the link is. Great Job !

One other note I should mention file size limit for a .pdf is 19.5 kb's so it is really useless as almost all the .pdf's will be too big to upload so linking into them is the best way.
