1. Product:

Parts to build a pair of TC7's

2 TC-7 motors; one has a shifted top plate, other is good

2 Med/Stiff Spiders

2 Paper cones with wide surrounds

2 10" 4 spoke baskets w/ gaskets and screws

2 3" 4-layer FW Al coils

2 spider spacers

2 terminals (1 per basket)

2. Specs:

Motors - Both from Eclipse 8810.6's, but have slightly different gap sizes. I e-mailed Thilo about it and he said if you use identical coils, there will be a slight difference in T/S specs, but it wont be audible.

Spiders - Med/Stiff progressive 8" spiders, 3" coil openings

Cones - Strong paper cones, nice wide foam surrounds, 3" coil openings

Baskets - Also from Eclipse 8810.6's. Needs to be cleaned, both come with 1 set of terminals and original gasket. Gaskets aren't in the greatest shape due to their age, but still wrap around and hold fine.

Coils - Dual 2ohm each. 4-layer flatwound, aluminum. ID: 2.985 OD: 3.145 FH: 3.95 WW: 1.5

Spacers and screws - Spacers are 3/8". Standard screws.

3. Description/Condition:

I was gathering parts to build a nice pair of daily drivers, but I've decided to go in a different direction. I have no idea what the exact RMS value would be using these parts, but looking at similar builds, I would expect at least 750w. All that's missing are dustcaps, tinsel, and glue. The spider spacers aren't necessary since each sub only has 1 spider, but I'll throw them in with the baskets for free anyways. The spacers are also useful for gluing down the spiders.

1 TC7 is in great condition. Other has a shifted top plate.

Coils, spiders, cones are brand new.

Baskets, gaskets, terminals, spacers are used from original 8810.6 subs.

4. Price: :

Prices DO NOT include shipping. Most items can fit in flat rate boxes (padded envelopes in the case of the spiders), unless you're buying a lot of things.

Motors - $55 for the good one, $25 for the shifted one

Cones - $35 for both

Coils - $40 for both

Spiders - $13 for both

Baskets, gaskets, screws and spacers - $40 for both

$180 + shipping for everything

I'd prefer to sell everything as pairs, unless I have a buyer for both. Price will just be divided by 2 + shipping if that's the case.
