Speaking of which, one of these days, against all better judgement, I do intend to build a "sweet sixteen"

I understand why it is technically a bad idea, but it's a project I've always wanted to do. In 2003 I almost bought a house which had one built in, in the basement - once it sunk in that I was contemplating buying a house based on a 40 year old DIY speaker project, I decided to move on.
But where on earth to get 16 speakers? I've tried ebay, and got 3 or 4 of the specified Quam speakers. I could easily take them out of radios I never use, but it seems somehow unethical.
Back on topic, I like Silvertone stuff a lot... looks like my main use AM radio, and my best old TV are both Silvertone now.
