coincident speakers do you have troubadors

Thanks, but the statment I wouldn't sell them for 10X what I paid for them just means they're not for sale.

Apart from matching the veneer, building a Troubass would be relatively straightforward and simplistic for any cabinetmaker of moderate ability. The crossover is a simple cap/coil network, the driver is a 10" Peerless 1727XL (I believe it's the 1727 of the XL subwoofer driver line - I bought 4 of the driver which replaced them for a project of my own design), the wiring is off the shelf 12 AWG OFC, and a vent is obviously nothing exotic.

Unfortunately, Israel not getting back to you seems to be par for the course. He does himself more harm than help by doing little to support second, third, etc. owners of the product. I used to firmly believe that Coincident was going to become one of the legacy companies in this industry. The products and marque once had everything going for them - good construction, good looks, good sound, easily driven by low-moderately powered tube amplification in the early days of what was to become an enormous tube renaissance. All things considered, Coincident should have perhaps become the most successful loudspeaker company for the type of dedicated audiophile that you find on Audiogon, AudioAsylum, and AudioCircle. It's sad on a certain level, but he completely squandered the fortunes of the company by his dealings with both customers and dealers alike. Human nature is such that people are often their own worst enemies, and do more to sabotage their own success than any/every other factor combined.

Thanks again for your response and the info on designing the speakers. I will pass it on to my brother and see if he can make them for me.

Intresting to hear your opioion of Israel and his company. I had heard of others who got no response from him also. What a shame it is for a business person not to take care of their customers.

Good chatting with you.

Israel has always answered my emails within hours & his products are the best I've experienced.

I must say that I am astounded by some of these comments. Coincident has thrived for the last fifteen years not only because we offer tremendous components but also due to our relationships that we have established with our customers. We do not rely on huge marketing budgets nor getting cosy with industry insiders in order to promote our line. People buy our products because they outperform others AND because we offer expert, on going support to Coincident owners.

My personal record for responding to emails and phone calls is unique in the industry. Return emails are sent always within 24 hours and 80% of the time within 2 hours. I spend endless hours on the phone communicating with audiophiles and indeed , a large portion of our business is generated by word of mouth.

I take great offense to the blatantly untrue comments made by Trelja attempting to impugn my devotion to Coincident owners and prospective buyers. I have a folder which contains every email sent to me within the last 3 years with my replies to them. There is not a single one that did not receive a timely response to an inquiry. To suggest otherwise, is a malacious lie.

I've only had a wonderful experience in my dealings with Coincident and Israel. He has never failed to respond to my emails,and in short order,He even helped me out with his knowledge in the purchase of some used equipement, with no benefit to himself.Way above and beyond, for which I'll always be thankful.
