This was bought in error (wrong model), and then on top of that my project was cancelled. !!
Bought from someone listing it on eBay as "Open Box". So far I have not even opened the box they shipped it in, but of course I can do that just to check it for you.
I believe I am setting my selling price at somewhere around half the going price of "new", for quick sale...
Here are excerpts from the eBay listing from which I bought it:
"This Eminence ALPHA 8A 8" Pro Audio Woofer is in mint/ to new condition. Was purchased brand new from sweet water 3 weeks ago as an experiment to improve a specific sound in a speaker situation.. Was tested in the new speaker for 5 minutes and did not make the improvements we were expecting. The speaker was taken out , and that's where it's been since ,for 3 weeks. It is in perfect new working condition."
