Mine are Rosewood and are made from matched knotted veneers that were usually waste in the process. They were used with a aftermarket crossover, so the built in crossover was bypassed during the original owner. They are non F speakers but the heads were upgraded to FC heads. They are for sale.

Bought them in 1980. The sound is still own of a kind. The lows are there if they are in the program material. Never listening fatigue.
A joy for life!

Thirty years later and the impression is still indelible.
