Dude I think it is cool how you do things. Some pretty good Radio on the computer. I use to love the late night DJs. I use to call and talk to them. Had a few stop by. I would tell you wouldn't me.

So Steven your a pedestrian also. Dude do it just like you want to.

I can't walk well for longer distances, that's why I have a bike.

Elmer's Wood Glue. It and others in the set from the 90s towers had to be repaired,

I ended up not using this one when I built the towers in the bedroom.

Here is what is probably the RCA version of the Realistic Minimus-7. It is NOT as big as the walnut Minimus-7W but sounds about the same. It and the Minimus will be used for audio testing on the bench.[attachment=1:1orpsp1y]RCA minimus clone.JPG[/attachment:1orpsp1y][attachment=0:1orpsp1y]RCA minimus clone (2).JPG[/attachment:1orpsp1y]

I came across a pair of Audio Source speakers which are identical to the metal cabinet Minimus 7s. The drivers are even the same. The difference in the cabinet was the depression was formed differently around the back of the speaker for the spring-loaded wire connectors. And they sound just like the Realistics. This is the system I gifted my son more than a year ago.

I have a pair of the Realistic Minimus 7's, black, metal, great little speaker. Would not mind having another pair as they are very nice for piping audio into a small area.
