    Serves you right!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    LOL, very nice, you’ll like them.
    “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”

    Sounds more like a brain tilt.
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Update on these , Collected yesterday , What a lovely gent in a absolutely immaculate home , It is fantastic , The gent must be minted and have no money problems , nice position to be in , I did ask when he said he wanted to move and build a new home from the ground up how much the house would be marketed for ? The reply was £750 / £800 K

    Anyway back to the H2's , Wow they are in fantastic condition , He purchased them new from Impulse so one owner , He told me he harley used them as he was more into TV and yes he had a top of the line bendy magneticly fixed LG tv with the LG sound bar , That was mind blowing , A TV you can stick on the wall and bend the screen

    Had to leave them in my van last night as what I thought would be a 1 hour trip ended up being a 6 hour trip , He was a very hospitable man and enjoyed talking about HiFi so I was in my element as well , 4 cups of coffee later I left for home , Managed to get the help of a gent from across the road to lift them into my hallway this morning as they were far to heavy for me on my lonesome

    At some point today I now need a re arange in my ever shrinking front room
    or I need a bigger house ( No I dont have £750K )

    I am looking forward to fitting them up and experimenting with differen amp combos

    Also included were 2 x Granite bases and 8 spike pucks

    Oh well done. I remember hearing a demo of these years ago with valves and being seriously impressed. My room was just too small though, some things never change.

    Very cool Al. Would love to hear those. Look like a big speaker, what sort of height are they, 4ft?
