NEED SOME INFO ON PIONEER CS 811A & 911A SPEAKERS. I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A SET OF THE 911'S OFF OF EBAY. I HAVE ONLY SEEN A COUPLE SETS OF EACH ON EBAY IN THE LAST YEAR. SEEM TO BE A HARD TO FIND ITEM. BEAUTIFUL SPEAKER & SOUNDS GREAT @ 150 WATTS:scratch2:. ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A ORIGINAL PICTURE OF THEM ANYWHERE. THIS SPEAKER HAD A FOAM COVER SIMILAR TO THE JBL CENTURY 100'S.I WANT TO TRY & RESTORE THE COVERS TO ORIGINAL, IF POSSIBLE. PLEASE HELP MY WITH ANY INFO & MUST DEF SOME PICS. THANKS EVERYONE.

There should be some info in the Pioneer forum. I will see if I can find it. Please try to refrain from using all caps.

I've got a pair of 911a's I bought from a neighbor. He bought them new. I had to replace the pots on both.
I'll take some pics tomorrow. Anything particular?

Here are the pics

Took a few pics.
Covers a a black cloth stretched over a wood frame. They are held in place by pins at the corners.
I enjoy mine. They came with a SX950. I never tried them past 1/2 way volume.They get loud! Listening to my Marantz 2275 through them now.
You say you got yours on Ebay. Did you have to do a lot of bidding?

Chilliywilly thanks for the pics. Looks like it to me your buddy must have recovered the speaker covers. I'm sure those are not original. Beautiful speaker though & they rock. I was the only bidder on the speakers & picked them up for about $200. Thanks for the flyer IXLR8, first I have seen on theses speakers.

They had a black foam cover with a metal or plastic black and silver band towards the bottom as seen in the flyer. It seems to me these might have been only offered to servicemen overseas at the PX/BX stereo stores.
