Sir here's the quote from Neo:
Quote
Dear Frederick,

Thanks for the email.

Cost for a pair is SGD 250 plus shipping of SGD 75. That would be SGD 325 and should takes about a week or two depending on courier availabilty in your area.

Regards,
Neo
I want a pair too, pm me if your interested.

Be prepared for customs duties and taxes in the vicinity of US$40-50 per pair.

Congrats jerryidol. Welcome to the club.

200 hours break-in...... please relax on the volume unitl you have reached 200 hours just to prevent from damaging the drivers.

The alpair 7 is a well regarded driver that outperforms a lot of commercial hifi speakers.

In the future, explore the frugal horn XL as the Alpair 7 excels in that box.  The box design can be bought from the designer at a minimal fee.

Di ba Frugel-horn MK3 ang bagay sa Alpair 7.3?

Oh yes, you are right the FHMK3 is for the Alpair 7.3, which is free for download.

I got confused ..... the FHXL is for the Alpair 10 series pala

Yes, Cal would know the appropriate wire configuration for your 7.3 as we already made several iterations that will make it optimal.

Your internal and external wires should be the same configuration.

Sir jerryidol,

Based on my experience, JoeyGS is right, you will achieve optimal sound after 200hrs break in for the Alpair7.3.
At 100 hours, ramdam na naman ang difference, but 200hrs mas swabe pa. It will slightly take the edginess out of the Alpair 7.3's sound (metal cone).

I haven't hear Alpair 7 in tower enclosure though. Narinig ko pa lang siya sa bookshelf as well as pods (for car).

Sir, di ko pa nasubukan yung 10M... para sa 'yo yun eh. Sigurado ako OK din yan - my previous metal cone CHR-70, masaya na ako.
burn-in pa lang ng 10P, napapangiti na ako >:D

Congrats on the 10M and 10P

Would suggest the pensil or frugal horn boxes for these drivers.  Good luck!
