    Fisher BA 6000

    I just sold my Mcintosh MC 7200 and put my fathers BA 6000 back in production. Believe it or not I don't hear much difference between the MC 7200 or the Fisher BA 6000. As a matter of fact the bas is cleaner on the BA 6000. my question is, are there RECAP kits for the Fisher BA 6000 as I am...

    Kenwood KT-7500

    Thanks for the reply. I heard that the Kenwood has better sound and sensitivity. In your opinion should I just replace it with a McIntosh or Marantz or do the mods you advised

    sorry about the confusion I meant they are still in production as in being used in my system. I would like to mod them but the tweeters are 16Ohm I guess they are paralleled to bring the dual tweeters to 8 ohms. if I upgrade the tweeters i need 2 4ohn and series them. if that's the case then I...
