Being a DCM fan, i had to jump on the chance to get some tf1000's on c/l for 10 dollars. upon picking them up, i found them to be in their original boxes with the letter from the factory. But, then the kid comes out with a two ziploc bags. One with the crossover from one of the speakers, and the other with the pieces of black plastic that used to be the binding post housing. He said that he was going to try to fix it, but it fell. Oh well.. for $10, if it burst into flames after 3 notes what the hell. right? So i packed them up and brought them home to find one in "great" exterior condition, but i hooked it up to a spare onkyo receiver, and it sounded kinda muddy. so i hooked it up to my big HK, same thing. i looked on the website, but the "manual" they offer is the same as the 3 page deal i found in the box. Anyone have any info on these speakers? Could the weakness in the one functioning speaker be crossover related? i would like to salvage these if possible, but i have the notion of fashioning a DCM center channel out of the remains if possible (Steve Eberbach cringing somewhere). The reason for this being that i would like to keep my timewindows in my HT system. i havent really gotten into dismantling them, as i was hoping to tap into the wealth of wisdom you sages of speaker posses.
