Not as it is now. He had Ralph build him some much larger custom bass horns.He was showing pics from his phone over at RMAF.

Yeah, I can see how that room of his would need bigger bass bins....!

The new upper bass horns are slight
y larger than the old wooden ones, but I am pretty sure Thomas still has Betas, what colour were the horns?
KR Keith.

Mark you can do all my photoshop wrk from now on!

The new bass bins Thomas has are white. But they are properly 'built in' not something that could be moved. A custom installation. He did also say he'd increased the size/volume of the listening room (raised the ceiling?) which had been of great benefit. I think the rest of the Betas were still in place.

Mark. Will do. I've just put my FR on it which seems another happy coupling but need to get the Io on that. Using Mission 773 at the moment. Full review of deck & arm in the next HiFi News. Measures very well apparently!

Actually, I didn't create that 'Barbie' picture - I stumbled across it on Google Images when I was trying to find a picture of the Cessaro crossovers.
