I was with my wife and actually bought these, put em in the CRV in back, and drove home without her noticing! They are still in the car.

Last week Infinity QB-1s, this week Snell...next week Yorx!
I paid around that for a pair in Oak needing foam. I used MAT replacements. They are some of the best sounding speakers I have heard.

Mine are oak too, not black. If you were not really looking they would resemble some cheapo rack system...but the name Snell caught my eye so I took a chance.
MAT?
what is that? speaker parts company?
thanks

Is there a big difference in the sound between the 752,4 amps and the autoformer ones? Maybe Carl has heard both....

I really could not afford it so maybe it is better the amp is now higher lol
752 has a little less oomph and IIRC no powerguard anticlipping feature. I have never been around them all together to compare at the same sitting.

New Maggotbox on the way....I bought a SET console pull ...seems to have everything speaker terminals, switch, rca inputs...there was no picture of the underside.

a 197 amp
I hope it works


well I guess it is a SEP amp perhaps...Single Ende Pentode....whatever that is

I picked up a pair of these for my laptop at Wally World for about $20 bucks and I am as happy as a Pig in Slop with them. Obviously I don't belong in this thread.
