[quote user="JONNIE"] Thanks for that yes I will do cash on collection it just isnt worth the risk !I am not in habit of not buying when agreed but at such a large amount and when I am inexperienced I just needed advice thanks!!

One of the Bass drivers wasn't working but thanks to a tip from Martin (detached flexible wire to the voice coil which required some pretty painstaking dismantling & resoldering) at least that is now fine. The usual refoaming will
