It's mainly vintage gear I've found at yardsales/newspaper classifieds/pawnshops, or traded for, I've even bought a couple pieces used from different members. My Marantz 2130 is my main source as she's been recently aligned and been given a clean bill of health, the rest of my gear is more or less ran as found. Sounds nice to me! my twin shivas, they are actually rotated outwards now, and The Rack

I'm using 2 pre's at the moment daisy-chained together. The 11B controls the 3B for the Tannoys, and also feeds the SPEC-1 which controls the M-2 for my subs. I found that I needed to further increase the signal to the sub-amp as I never could get the subs to play loud enough to match the rest of my system.

You shouldn´t laugh, greg.
Don´t you know that speakers are like cars? The less you use them the higher the risk of something going wrong with them.

Send a pair or two to Paul, the rest you can ship to me.

I don't know my vintage speakers all that well, but they sure look like this pair of KLH Model 1/5's (in the speaker forum, at the bottom of the thread). I just got em and am picking up this weekend.

Congrats and I hate you Just kidding......I would love to hear what you end up doing with those very rare beauties. I see the potential for a Bass Box/Horn bi amp project.....have fun and keep everyone up to date on whatever you do.
