ok ok, so the electronics are still not done on the Grand. Therefore this is a small post, but rest assured its well underway. I moved to SET amps and here is a pic of how it currently looks.
Before questions on the amps come up, the impedances of the drivers are 2.4ohms (Tweeter), 3.8ohms (Midrange), 2.7ohms (Woofer( and 2.8ohms (Subwoofer)
