I have a pair of NEAR 50 me bi-wire speakers. I love them! I blew a mid because the cheap binding post came loose and I had a bad connection. This was after many years of use. In order to buy a pair replacement mids I had to send the high end crossovers in to get them modified for the superior mids that near now makes. I had thier older mids. I changed the binding posts to some solid copper cardas posts. I also rewired the ENTIRE speaker with silver audio wire. I had to double it up so I ended up using about 60 feet. The wire cost $16 a foot and is worth every penny. I then decided to just buy all 6 drivers brand new, instead of just the mids. I bought them from Bill Kieltyka at bogen communications. He also did the mods to the mid/tweeter crossover. He invented and designed these speakers. He sold out to bogen and works for them. He still sells near replacement drivers. After doing all of this I about died when I heard these speakers. Now I really love them. They sounded great with my aragon amp. They sound incredible with my new cj mono blocks. Troy.
