does anyone have experience with this guy or shop? looks like they specialize in customizing altecs but i cant find any other info on them. look to be based near san diego. any thoughts? seems really expensive, but they do look amazing.

Those are some mighty optimistically priced butt joints.

I've actually spoken to someone who's purchased Altecs from this guy, and says he's legit!

However, those speakers look gawd awful!

His wife probably said he HAD to sell them.
