Hi All,


Have a set of Titans and Seismic Subs built by Dr. Bruce. I know Nick
assumed the building of Titans a few/several years ago.

Who is building the Slimlines? The email address I have for Dr. Bruce
is an old one as the email I just sent bounced.

Thanks and Good Listening!

Nobody!!

The 6.5" woofer I used is no longer made. I finished the last pair this last year and gave them to my computer guy.

I sold many more Titans than Slimlines because the Titans would blow away the SL's in a one on one comparison.

BTW I just got out of the hospital. I fell and dislocated my left arm. Spent 5 weeks in rehab. I'm home now and am on the mend.

Bruce, you are not comparing apples to apples - for the cost and amount of building effort SL is a phenomenal speaker and 95% of listeners would be quite happy with it, not to say anything about the WAF. I would argue that the strongest point of your SL is the mid-range that used the same 300Hz tractrix horn as the Titan. When paired with LE-5, the sound is every bit as good. Well, bass is a different matter, but every speaker is a compromise. BTW, remember I traded you a box of drivers for 2 of Jack's chokes? Anyways, those were the same sammy drivers that were used for SL. So you probably have the last stash of them.

Dr. Bruce,

I am forever grateful for you selling me those field coil converted 2441 drivers a few years ago. Every time I listen to music I smile and think of you. I hope you have a full and speedy recovery !!!

Hang in there.

Email will follow.


First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
