    Certainly very similar although no badge or stencilled name on front so might have been redone or are copies.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I saw this item for sale on my (internet) travels. VERY VERY tempting. Also relatively close by, certainly worth the trip.

    The drivers seem to be Jenson 12 inch field coil drivers judging from the markings on the rear of a driver. The auction does not appear to include the necessary DC power supply but I guess they could be made up. Or dump the FC drivers and insert some decent Tannoys in them.

    I wonder if the cabs were made up by Steve at Magna Audio?

    The advert contains more details (Item Specifics), which states 15" bass driver size.
