Hi guys,

Thank you all very much for your contributions. They were of little help,
but judging by the response I got from various websites (and companies
behind them), I didn't really expect anything else.

As some of you already proposed, I contacted Wilmslow Audio in Leicester.
They helped me out with some components. Furthermore I found a (completely
MAD!) guy in Amsterdam who almost lost it completely when he saw my empty
cabinets. He actually still had some Coles tweeters stocked somewhere and
the other components came from both Wilmslow and some reconstructing of my
mad-man.

If you ever want something odd done (audiophile wise, that is), try to
contact Geert-Jan at Audio-Dome at the Witte de Witstraat in Amsterdam. He's
a typical guy and you should consider yourself privileged if you can get him
to do something for you. Once he DOES though, he knows it all and builds it
all as well. He doesn't have a website yet, but I plan to sort him out with
one soon.

Thanks again,
Mo
