Hi Paul, I ordered a pair yesterday and received an email that they were being handmade and then sent to me. Do you happen to know how long it takes for them to ship out currently? ---

accidentally deleted my post when trying to copy it and send it to a customer who asked about the crossover of the speaker. Here is it again: ![FR5 Exploded View Render](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/e/f/ef744524ae4892bf1bc006cf997bb130e6f2051c.jpeg) Here is an exploded view of the speaker. The crossover sits under the horizontal brace and there is a hold in the brace for the big inductor to poke up through it. This little enclosure is pretty jam packed with everything. ![fr5 crossover](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/psaudio/original/3X/3/d/3d7d7bcda796b160b5bb1546f475429af0b4d9fa.jpeg) ---

They aren’t branded, though we are looking at adding a PS audio label to them. I think in the DIY market that the Mundorf classic or EVO caps are great value and good performance. In some of our other electronics products we use relcap and jantzen and others. On our speakers we work with an OEM in china that supplies a lot of big names and have sampled a number of different versions (they have various levels of film and construction available within their film cap offerings).
