Hi guys!
These speakers sound great! A deep and fast bass, clear midrange and crystal highs! The port is tuned to 32Hz. External dimensions are 700mm x 1150mm x 600mm. Internal volume for bass reflex is about 360 liters.

The crossover cutoff frequency are 200Hz, 800HZ and 10KHz

John they are called the Classic series. You can get 416-8B's,802-8G's, 288-8H's,and a few others in Alnico magnets in 8 or 16 ohm....

Wonder why they don't have them on the web site. I've sent an email to them requesting more info. I'm just about to purchase some 390's & hadn't heard of these, so now there's a cat among the pigeons!

Mikebond.....tell us about your crossover....who designed it & built it? Crossover slopes?....components used?
They are one impressive looking speaker. (well two actually)

The crossover was calculated together with the friend of mine. Some special software was used, like ARTA, LEAP Crossover Design and very cool software 3D Acoustic Research written by my friend. After calculation I spent many hours and days with measuring and testing.
Crossover was made by me using Mundorf coils and capacitors.

Mike what are those labels/badges at the bottom of the cabs just below the ports ? I notice you have some eggcrate foam on the walls. Where you getting a lot of reflections ? If so you may want to extend the treatment up to or just higher than the HF horn.Especially with those big 88's.The room looks fairly narrow,is it long and narrow ?

The room is not very wide, just 3,6 m x 5,5 m
But these speakers are made to order and will soon be in another room
