All the trim has been routed and is ready to attach..........dare I say could be in the home straight or at least in sight of it.
Eagerly awaiting your impression of how they sound installed
I have routers & drills toCome on man, nearly there
Soon to be audio nirvana me thinks, low powered class A amps will enthrall![]()

You are reading my mind, scary! But seriously thanks so much for your encouragement along the way.
I have an Audio Research Ref 2 Mk2 Pre amp on order, used of course. What are your thought on Class A Power amps that would possibly match this.....tubes probably.
On the vinyl side I have a Linn with Ittock Arm and Dynavector 20dXX Cartridge and the Phono Stage is a Linto.
Those Westminsters will need control even if not a lot of power. How about EAR power amps, such as the 861?
