Is that what's tacked inside those laptop speakers?

No !

...... there's TWO of 'em and if you call a bloody great big metal plate with the amps and transformer BOLTED to it - 'tacked' - then still NO

Mmmm, 500 watts each are they?

Now are you sure that's not PMPO or some other strange concoction of letters created to make a small amp sound very large?

**jcbrum** · 03-05-2008, 12:00

they'll do a solid 10 amps at 50v, suck it and see,

I guess you might get some bass out of his toy speakers when there's an 'F' in the month and if the wind is blowing in the right direction!

I'm going to stop being led into talking about AVI speakers by Marco, in case we have to ban him

I really like you JC, you take the bait every time!

In seriousness I heard a pair of ADM9s by pure coincidence yesterday evening. I won't say anything now as I'm going to borrow the ones I heard, bring them home and set them up as I have set my Revels up and do a proper listening session.

I will write up my findings in due course.

**jcbrum** · 03-05-2008, 12:09

Which sort are they, USB or Opt/toslink ? and if so How old ? (there's four sorts now but no one is supposed to know that )

**Filterlab** · 03-05-2008, 12:12

They were bought about a month ago, although I didn't ask anything about them, it was only a fleeting listen before heading out to the pub for a small but purposeful session of bloke banter aided by the fuel of stories.

I'll obviously include all the details of them when I write my findings.

Oh dear Marco. Your valve amp thread's been crapped on.
