Let me be the first to "officially" say you suckI'm still not done with my first speaker project, but that's OK.

Almost didn't go since the ad was an hour old, glad I did.
Are there supposed to be positive/negative stickers at the speaker terminals?
Most certainly. Acoustic suspension speakers like these along with their forebearers from Acoustic Research, KLH, etc. all required that for the design to work properly.Since I'm getting ready to order foams I opened these up, and they're filled with block foam.
Are they supposed to be?
There was an Advent model in a smaller cabinet. The compromise for similar response was lower sensitivity.Seems weird, could have much smaller cabinets instead.
Not stock.The grille cutout almost looks like it was made to allow the grille to be inverted and still fit around the tweeter (stackable Advents?).
Definitely not stock.Not stock.
Correct.But I would have guessed 0 was negative anyway.
Also read up on why acoustic suspension systems are filled with fiberglass or foam. It IS to make the cabinet seem larger to the woofer, thus extending low frequency response.
