Thoughts on a McMurdo Silver Masterpiece VI Speaker
#28

I'll have to look into that for certain. I could flex it downward, too, but this might increase the chance of the woofer cone's accordion edge hitting the steel on loud passages.

Here's what it will be going into:

Yes, that is a Scott Philharmonic speaker sitting in there, too small for the opening. It came with the McMurdo when I bought it. The Scott speaker will be going into my Scott Allwave 23 as it has a Philharmonic amp/power supply.

I didn't want to cut a hole in the sounding board to mount a tweeter separately, since this is such a rare and desirable set. It's bad enough that I'm using modern speakers, but like I said at the beginning of this thread, I'm just not going to pay $6700-9000 + for the original. I can't afford it, for one, and besides, that sort of price for a speaker is ridiculous - in my opinion.
