Negatively Biased
Well finding out I dont have a tension bar has really put a hold on finishing these speakers
The chances of finding the original items is pretty slim so I will have to come up with an engineering solution that may not be original but will work as a tension bar.
I am going to fit a 6mm x 20mm flat steel bar to the laminated top plate glued and screwed into the top plate, this bar will have a drilled and taped with a 6mm thread into it. This will give me a good anchor onto the top plate so I can tension up the base plate
I will dress the thread off the bar behind the Bass/ mid driver so it doesn't touch.
Once I get this fixed I can finish the wiring fit the grills and foam surrounds
I really want to listen to these speakers at their best and it will be through my Rogers A100 amplifier
