Wow, that has some really really good shots of some 612s in action! Kinda sound funky in this video though.

Very good. Thanks. This is the best footage of an EOWS8 612, that I have seen.

Man, that was just like a movie from junior high. All I needed was the sound of the projector and a desk to sleep on.

Man, that reminds me of grade school! I wonder why there is letters on the speakers of the 612....

The letters seem to resemble a segment of the alphabet. They are read from right, to left; from top, to bottom. I do not know as to why that is so.

The lettering probably corresponds to the speaker wiring, as to which amplifier it is hooked up to.
