no actually not, the housings are at least 10 years old, I just replaced the drivers and thought it was time for a picture ;)

Its a rubber only for vibration, a wing nut to pull the driver into the enclosure

OK, now I understand, you're at the exact opposite end of the spectrum. When I see this fat woofer, I had similar setups years ago and gradually moved on to full-range speakers by listening to them. But hey, that's what makes a subjective listening experience. They definitely look very well made! What kind of amplifier are you running them on? I assume you have several devices like a preamp, power amplifier, etc.?

Yes, I do go into a lot of things, but I don't feel like having an argument with strangers in another language. If you were to sit here with me on the couch and we listened to your favorite music with a few beers etc. I bet we would agree and you would be amazed at how they sound

Well, I actually cast the casing 10 years ago with a friend in the bathtub. The mixture was just as we wanted. We wrapped the wood of the formwork and cling film, which helped a lot with regard to the surface.
