Hey Ron, I'm thinking of dragging the scoops out. what the heck, the wife is already pissed. She came home, looked at the speakers everywhere and said "What is all this stuff"?
I'm expecting great things from them.

Right now, they are hooked up to a pair of tiny 4" Magnavox sealed box fullranges and it's astonishing the (near field) soundstage I'm getting from them on the bench. I'm running Tung-Sol 12ax7s and (repro) Mullard 6bq5's in them. A significant upgrade from the 40 year old stock NECs that were in them, as near as I can tell through the crappy little speakers. Bigger and more efficient speaks will reveal all.

Now to build some nice wooden cabinets for them. Time for a trip to Yukon Lumber.

Dave
