Hi Turbota,
Let me try to address the potential confusions that you pointed out:
1) The "K" prefix is used to designate Almarro's specially-priced "system packages" (amp + speaker combos), whereas the "M" prefix is used to designate Almarro's loudspeaker models. Thus, what Mike actually purchased was a pair of M33A speakers.
2) The final production version of the M33A looks more like the photo you included above in terms of driver and port placement, except that the current model also has holes on the front panel (as seen in Mike's photos) to accomodate the detachable grilles.
Cheers,
Brian
