I find it hard to believe a wood box is worth $1200 BIN.
Is this a California dreamer or am I on the wrong page ??

With the wear and tear, I would say 75$ tops to a guy that had the driver and needed an enclosure to restore. After all, it is Jensen, not W.E. or something!

A plain plywood cabinet? Gee, maybe I can get some quality cabinet grade plywood and build these! :D

In my days of collecting, I must have trashed a few 100,000$ in cabinets. :lol:

This guy always has ridiculously crazy amounts on his items. There are speakers still listed for sale, that I seen when I first started collecting and that has been way over 5 years ago.

I can see if there was a pair of them and you had say 600$ on them or if this was a factory cabinet maybe the price but this is just plan crazy. I have a Jensen cabinet up stairs that is factory, I haven't found a match for it. But one guy did email me and stated he had a match...he wanted 400$ for just the cabinet that had the pots installed in the front...I told him there was no way....then he wanted to know if I would sell him mine :roll:

I have 6 speakers that I am looking for mates for...but no way I would go over 150$ for just the cabinet. Over 500$ I can have one made....
