| R.I.P: Rest In Peace Roy Johnson, Green Mountain Audio's Genius Roy will be missed. He was working on a ribbon tweeter upgrade for the Eos RX along with his next floor standing model. I loved his updates. I think his approach to cabinet design is unparalleled. It makes me sad to know he’s not out there thinkin... | |
| Speaker Recommendations - from Vandersteen 5As Are you sure you got the “great deal” you thought you did? Are you sure all the drivers (and the crossovers) are working as expected? | |

| Replacing Maxon motor in a Teres Verus Chris says the bearings may just need cleaning and lube, but will let me know if the motor actually needs to be replaced. I’m going to ship it back to him for a once-over. I’ll report back if he finds anything more serious / interesting. | |
| Replacing Maxon motor in a Teres Verus It’s started to make a clicking / grinding noise. I pulled the motor out of the housing, and confirmed it is the motor. Just want to confirm there’s nothing special / custom about the motor. BTW, I’ve marveled at your table for years. I have a sol... | |
| Replacing Maxon motor in a Teres Verus I reached out to Chris, but thought I’d take it out to the hive mind. Part number looks the same, but “simple” part swaps like this never end up as simple as it seems. | |
