   I don't completely understand that. My first set of pre built speakers I   
   bought in1969 from allied radio, Utah components, acoustic suspension. Then   
   I had AR4x's. I still have small set of advents in the garage, and I recall   
   rebuilding a set of AR2ax's in the 80's. In the army in 1970' I really   
   wanted a set of AR3's but out of range for me. I settled for upside down   
   trash can's in the barracks, with radio shack coaxial's
