Hello Acme People,

Andy here.

Over the years, I've tried to keep track of where all the Acme cabs are, and what service or driver replacements they've had, etc.

Because of this attention to each and every cab, I have been able to help my customers recover their stolen cabs at times in the past.

A couple of 8 ohm Series II cabs showed up on Craigslist in Denver the other day (for a great price!). We actually have very few customers in Colorado, so I wondered which cabs they were, and who was selling them.

I contacted the guy, and asked him for the serial numbers, and didn't get a response.

I had a friend of mine contact him, and ask for the serial numbers of the cabs. All he would tell us was the last four digits, which were A202 and B204. Then the guy got real secretive and defensive, and said he wouldn't sell them to my friend, because he was too "nosy."

I searched the database, and found that there had been a cab stolen with a match for the A202 number.

At this time, I'm trying to locate the buyer of the B204 unit, to see if his was stolen as well, but there were quite a few serial numbers that ended with those four digits.

I'm not sure how to proceed, but if you had an 8 ohm Series II Low B-2 stolen, let me know. I might have found your cab.

I'm selling a pair of Acme Low B-2 bass cabs. Insanely good cabs but I just don't have a need for them anymore and need to make space. $260 each, cash only, contact via email. The specs are...

In the world of loudspeakers, there's a type of crossover network called a "series" network.

In all my years of doing this, I've never seen it meaningfully discussed...anywhere.

It has some complexities that are completely off the radar of many "experts."

Most of the people who see themselves in that way HATE the idea, even though they don't understand it.

So, I'm doing some testing on it, with the intention of writing up what I learn in for probable publication in "AudioXpress" magazine, who have been willing to pay me for articles of this type in the past.

So, I wrote up a paragraph or two about what I'm up to, and what speaker drivers I'm using to do it, and attempted to post it on a page for people who design loudspeakers.

The "moderators" declined to post it.

Why? They didn't say. Total passive aggressiveness!

I think it's because they don't want to admit they don't know everything.

Isn't Facebook grand?

So, just for the heck of it, I'll post it here.

Nerd alert!

Bad news. We had to increase the prices. We held off as long as we could.

My web-guy hasn't updated the site yet.

Question for my Acme people:

I just got an inquiry from a gentleman as to whether the Low B models will do OK with an "open G" tuning, which apparently has the G note below Low B.

Do any of you have experience with this, and might be able to help me give him a definitive answer?

Thanks,
Andy

Hello Acme People.

Just got this message from one of the equipment reviewers in "The Absolute Sound" audiophile magazine.

"I love your little speakers - among the best nearfield monitors I've used."

Cool!

Thought you Acme people might get a kick out of this.

This are pictures of a Series II Low B-1 we did by special request in 2008.

One of a kind!
