    Well, I could have done without a view of those hairy legs so soon after eating my breakfast ....

    The speakers, though, are interesting ... those are Carver Amazing ribbon hybrids? Is that a pic of your own? (and would you admit to those being your legs?).

    Must admit I've always wanted to hear those (if they are Carvers) - I used to own some Apogee Caliper Sigs and very nice, in their own very particular way, they were, too.

    My mate had some Duetta Sigs for around fifteen years until the ribbons all but fell apart, slopping about all over the place.. On a good day when there was an R in the month they could sound amazing. he got a good price for them too and replaced them with some ML Discovery's I think.

    I wonder how the sucker (oops - buyer) got on with the above and if they're still running?

    As for the hairy legs, I can't talk...

    Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me

    Yup those are my legs (sorry I forgot to shave) & the Amazing MK-IV Carvers. The only speakers I got completely unheard & loved for a long time. Boogers cost alot to ship but were worth it. Never owned, but heard alot of Appoges loved them too. May have been naked for the shot thank God the lens wasent wide enough..............

    This could be the start of a new thread and/or a Peter Belt fetish: 'Does your system sound better if listened to whilst naked?'
