It did go to a good home(mine). Thanks for the heads up old guy. Funny thing is I just got a 904 XO off eBay a few days ago for $33.

It needs a cone too? That doesn't make it such a hot deal then....does it?
I don't know, can you buy a 604 for $255 with a new cone? If so I will take it as I need another
The listing says woofer working? If you need another....

I guess you already have a fram.....I don't know what GPA charges for recone. I thought it was $125, plus shipping.

Yes I have the fram
Ok so my mistake I thought automatically you would recone a 904 till I did a little searching here. Looks like you would still need a sub regardless is that right?
In stock form yes. They don't go real low. Pretty similar to a 604-8K.
You might see if GPA can put a 604-8G, 8H etc cone in there.
I have a pair and they are really nice with subs.
Not having the lows can actually be beneficial in a center channel of a home theater. it's mostly voice- the 421 cone likely will do better than a regular 604.
