NIRVANA!!!
They look AWESOME :drool:
I bet they sound even better!!
Fantastically beautiful 'speakers. They look like they have been made to match the interior of a 1920's ocean liner. I love the combination of wood finishes and the curves, that really does it for me. Top job.
They are deco looking for sure.
They look great Paul, a fantastic job and certainly something to be proud of and Im sure they sound as good as they look
BTW - what amp have you settled on to drive them?
Thanks Lee. They're now sounding much better since I removed all of the lambswool wadding and the foam from just the sloping base! Loads of life but buttery smooth even at high SPLs. Lack the hard charging bite of some modern designs but for an HPDs they're pretty amazing sounding things now. I'm using a Croft preamp which is driving VAC pa60 monoblocs (VAC is little known this side of the pond but is an American valve amplifier manufacturer and very popular State-side). Picture:
