RE: Lovin my MMG's, except.....

Hey Michael, glad to hear from you. I see you've been busy. I now see what you mean by "framed". JBen's Stixbee's is more along the lines of what you need. Their position, backing the frame rather than "framing" it works much better. If you could adapt struts to them, they'd work even better. That said, a hardwood frame is an even better mod. Compared to the stock MDF, I think the term jaw-dropping is appropriate. As PG mentioned you should do the crossover mod. I did the Magnestand series style crossover on mine. I did a few changes to save some $$. I used ASC oil-in-paper caps instead of Obbligatos and Jantzen Superior caps instead of Dynamicaps (30uF-ASC/5.6uF-Jantzen/.33uF Obligatto Premium's). Instead of the Alphacore inductor I used a 1.0 mH 15g Sledgehammer inductor. I ended up using wooden cigar boxes as external crossover enclosures.
