    They also give plenty of scope to play around with different drivers, horns, crossovers on the upgrade path
    I'd swear they're the ones I pointed out last week.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    When i had the 'Pembrokes' i was using Manticore 'Mantra'/Manticore 'Magician'/Mayware 'MC-7V'+'T24'.. Quad '44'/'405/2'

    Wow. Not even a pair.
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
