Just started to source parts for Lampizators P17 open baffle.
Fancy them as they are reasonably easy to build, not to expensive and most importantly high sensitivity.
Have pairs of Saba, Loewe and Isophon 8" mids to try along with one pair of Saba tweeters.
Looked to European woofers for the 15" bass as the Altecs are a bit to pricey. Huge Alnico magnets on these Tesla ARA-9918. Unfortunately one turned up with a tear in the cone (you can't see it in the pic).....however a NOS cone is on the way.

Caps, inductors and other bits and pieces are on there way as well. Just the wood left to purchase but I may use used MDF for the first attempt so I can change drivers/tweeters and get my head around making them look good.
Maybe a while before these are started as house moving looks on the cards soon.
