These are in such nice condition, just a nice addition to my little flock of ADS speakers. Best regards, Will.

The 630's are bigger, 25 + inches tall 14 plus inches wide and almost 12 inches deep, and 42 lbs. apiece. I'm thinking L-810 size, but these L-630's have 10 inch woofers. This is my second pair, regretted selling the last pair. In essence, these aren't going anywhere. I have a single L-710 that's going to mate with these in my front line, and trust me, these L-630's are a good bit bigger than 710's. Thanks for your response, Will D.

I will set my single L-710 between the L-630's and send pics soon. Just for reference, and to give me some pics also. Thanks again for your response, Will D.

117.50, pretty good deal.
It was me. They are on their way. I will follow through on looking into castings, but I want to see them first, as I have never actually seen the stands in person.

Alright! Awesome you got them!
Keep us posted, really curious about the left & right side supports. I bet the casting company could straighten the bent one described in the listing.

FYI the seller stated that the legs of the disassembled stand are the same orientation. What that means is that once you assemble the stand, one side will have its screw heads protruding while the other side is flushed with the side of the stand. The 910 stand legs actually have an indentation into the metal to allow for flush screw installation. That being said, you should be okay but cosmetically you're going to see 2 screw heads on one side. Hopefully everything works out. Good luck and enjoy!
Yes, I have been thinking about this. I have a friend, John, who can weld aluminum, so if that is an option I might have him fill the holes and countersink from the other side. If he can't weld cast aluminum then I might fill the holes with epoxy and countersink. It looked like I am getting 5 legs total? so I may be able to experiment a bit.
I don't know that much about metal, as I am more of a woodworker, but John is also a blacksmith so maybe we can heat the bent leg in the forge to soften it up a bit before straightening? I dunno, but will ask his advice so as to limit the chance of cracking it. .

Hey Larry Hey Moe, greetings G man. Going through some storage bin's the other day, I found a cd that was never opened. The artist is Sade, and the cd is titled Lovers Rock. This cd just jumps out of the speakers. This is a cd i'd like to hear on a pair of ADS L-910's for damn sure! Envious, Will to the D.

That's a great album and yes, sounds great on the 910's! I've listened to it at excessive volume levels and I'm sitting in the studio right there while Sade is singing!

Affirmative my friend. Just been listening to it in the mancave with the ADS speakers i'm going to replace. Finally got all of the pieces to swap out to the all L series ADS, but haven't got it done yet. It will get done, but nice mix on that cd, can't wait to hear that and of course others when I get my little project done. Thanks for your response, Will.

Great album. Perfect for finding loose wires in Magneplanars.

Finally got my 910's back to Colorado from the bay area, they were mentioned back on page 25 of this thread. A friend picked them up for me and held on to them until he drove out this spring. Man these are sweet sounding speakers, so much more presence than my 710's.
When I bought them, they had some aftermarket tweeters and crossovers installed in them, I've since replaced the aftermarket tweeters with some originals, and bought a pair of original crossovers. I haven't swapped the crossovers in yet, but these hand built crossovers currently in them sound excellent. They were built by Speaker City in Burbank, CA back in the mid 90's at some point and they used some high end stuff. It looks like they modeled it after the stock crossovers based on all the specs.
Anyway, 910's are awesome and it was worth the wait!
