Gold woofers need diamond tweeters!

[Beave]

This might be the most awesome eBay find ever! Gold plated woofers!

(Well, not really).

Now I have truly seen it all...

I honestly don't even know what to think about this, it appears someone actually spray painted the entire cabinet gold, including the woofers.

Copper metallic, not gold :-)

Perhaps a new product - The Sierra 2B (bling). JK :-)

omg!!!

What the he!! - that is a terrible. Who would do that??

On the bright side, the RAALs weren't painted.

I wonder how low the seller would go. Get them cheap and upgrade the to 2EX's.

Dave...serial numbers are showing in the ad(the rear of the cabinets and the box), so you can at least find out the original owner.

I still can't believe this is not some type of joke.

Did you see this in the sellers description?

Age: Unknown, yet more than 3 years old, and might (I'm guessing) be around 17-21 years old.

I am thinking this might be a liquidator selling them, maybe the cabinets and/or woofers were destroyed and to make them look better, they just painted them.

I like the "RUST-OLEUM Hammered paint" for the cabinet finish - lol. Dave - perhaps this could be a new option? Is it too late to get my towers redone in something like this??

[Beave]

Yeah Dave, I'm pretty sure this is a re-seller, not the actual previous owner of the speakers who did the "upgrades."

As to that person, I found his picture online:
