So Gowa, are the faceplates removable? Like without damaging things.
From the manufacturer:
1. I suggest not to disassemble the front panel lightly, because removing the panel requires first taking out the four screws that secure it. However, these four screws also hold the speaker's front magnet flux plate and front plastic bracket in place. Once the screws are removed, the front magnet flux plate and front plastic bracket are only held by glue. If the glue fails, the speaker could be permanently damaged.
If it is necessary to remove the front panel, be sure not to use an electric screwdriver. Instead, use a traditional manual screwdriver, applying moderate pressure and turning the screwdriver slowly to remove the screws. When replacing the panel and reinstalling the screws, do not tighten them too much. Over-tightening may cause the front magnetic flux plate to shift, which can result in contact with the voice coil and generate unwanted noise.
I'll be taking JR's suggestion and will pair these with the SB12CACS25-4 in a ~ .25ft^3 box. Initially active, and I may work towards passive. Could always stack them on some base bins for a pseudo 3-way.

I also received mine today
I too am a recent recipient of subject product . . . weighty package as yet unopened . . . fast shipping from the land of my birth (TO).
Thanks again "Gowa" . . . (whatever "that" means).
More on this combo later after some test measurements to see if we can make it work. WF223BD02 & AR120-6

Is it going to be 2.5 way?
Hopefully

I also received mine. From such decent packing, both face plates exhibit minor scratches/flaws.
just got mine. @hifiside are you going to throw these on your measurement rig?

Good question. I'll get you that answer shortly. Watcha thinkin?
What kind of scratches/flaws are we talking? I inspected them all and didn't see anything of concern, but I am old.
Silver faceplate coming soon.

Who will be first to use these bad boys?

^^ Exactly.
I'll try and get impedance sweeps and basic FR measurements for unit consistency soon.
Here you go. Both are with 20uF cap. FR is nearfield.
