Speaker + Fire = No Good?

He had the wiring all wrong.....One lead goes to his big toe on his left foot,and the other lead to the big toe on the right foot.Now plug it in the wall.I would definately find THAT more entertaining.

I bet his house smells real good now.

Speaking of wiring, I like the way my Yamaha CR-640 puts the grounds next to each other on the back. Instead of some, that go plus grnd plus grnd

Sure is trying to push buttons saying it was a Tannoy in his listing..

I wonder if it's a scammers new way of trying to harvest e-mail addresses knowing a bunch of other morons will write him just to bitch about destroying a perfectly good speaker like most seem to get worked up over..

I thought it was pretty cool to see how fast it popped myself..

He only did half the sequence, though. It should go:

1. Remove matching Tannoy (dual concentric) drivers from a pair of speakers, preferably a smaller, less valuable model.
2. Remove dust coils from speakers, exposing the openings down the middle of the voice-coil formers (the tubes in front of the tweeter/squawker membranes).
3. Wire the drivers in parallel, with a plug on the other end.
4. Put tongue inside one driver opening.
5. Put dick inside other driver opening.
6. Plug in the assembly.


This does waste one pair of drivers, but the one small sacrifice permanently removes a potential mass-Tannoy-murderer from the gene pool, thus saving countless other drivers from destruction and raising the world's average IQ.

Idiot...

Imagine if the styrofoam that speaker was sitting on went up. whew!

 

[Cleve]

Does anyone know if that was indeed a Tannoy driver? Maybe the wooger was fried anyways, and the guy just wanted to get a rise out of CL readers?

 

[Stuart Pedaso]

As this new sport proliferates, some of our vintage speakers could become much more valuable due to scarcity.

He's not afraid of DC offset either...

I found his choice of speaker wire to be revealing.
