I recently ordered a pair of Magnum Chameleon baffles from Randy in Caintuck for my Besty Alnico drivers.  The Magnum Chameleon baffles are stunning - the quality is furniture grade at least.  They are too beautiful to not share with the community.

Many thanks to Randy for his excellent skill and also patience in answering all of my numerous emails.



Best regards,
Ben

Nice Ben! (and Randy Smiley)

This makes me jealous. My Betsy alnico's have been sitting in a closet for several years now. I really need to get them back in the lineup for a listen.

Bet this combo sounds great! Congrats!!!

Best,

Geno

Bilyeaux -

Thanks!  These baffles are gorgeous - the photo does not do the actual baffles justice.  Randy really did incredible work (as usual).



Geno -

There really is something special about the sound of the Betsy Alnicos, although the original Betsys are very good as well.  However, I've recently been listening to my F15s a lot, a lot more than the other two Betsys.  The arrival of the new Chameleon Baffles have forced me to listen to the Alnicos, which I am super grateful for, otherwise I would have let the Alnicos stay in storage for some more time...
