I'm open to most new ideas and concepts that help in the improvement of music. When concepts are introduced in audio, like quantum physics, in a company's product by people without a science/engineering background, I look away and call them out. Worse are those who use the term snake oil make me cringe, tend to be narrow minded, whine about price, stuck in old theories, you know the type.
I have an A&M 5 amp meter, not exactly what you're looking for.

That more than fair. Ship to Dave Ward, 334 Lincoln Ave. Lutherville, MD 21093. I'll send payment tomorrow, just have to find the password... Really appreciate it, didn't want to buy another meter off the bay just to find out it's toast too. Enjoy the evening!

Looking for help on the Frazier V. I see in one of the threads you talk about the same issue. I have a bad tweeter that I have to pull. Can you help me with instructions on removing the grill so as not to destroy it? Sounds like it starts with some screws from the back. Any specific ones? There appear to be some inaccessible with normal screwdrivers. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi John, how are you doing? I have DIYed a JBL L300 with cabinet size same as stock, cabinet made of birch ply. I am using 2216 ND, 2420 and 2405 (Alnico) drivers. I am facing two challenges: 1) HF is too hot/ sharp 2) Bass is missing!! I am using Nelson Pass XO for MF, HF and S4700 type LF. Would you have any pointers for me to check? Thank you for reading and for your help. regards, Sam
Hi, Steve. I am finally thinking about selling my Snell Type A IIs. Do you have any suggestions as to price I should ask and expect? Mine have had the original woofers replaced with replacements from the Snell factory (rubber surrounds now). Thanks for any guidance you can offer.

I picked up the pair I have for 600.00 in their original boxes. But I see a pair sold on Ebay for 3500.00

$3,500? Nice! I was really hoping for $1,000 since it cost me ~$550 for the factory woofer replacements. That nets me only $225 per speaker.

Wish you were close by, I'd buy a second set.
I recently upgraded my active x-over LPF to a PRV DSP 2.4X for biamping <100hz. 4 separate outputs & many options - slope, phase, freq, delay, gain, PEQ. I set the initial setup close to the old x-over, then adjusted. Room corrections w/PEQ are impressive! More defined bass, better coherency, cleaner upper bass & lower mids. Wish I'd done this sooner.

I would like to take these, may i return them (immediately) if they dont test well on an Amplitrex CT1000? Several of my recent old stock purchases have not tested well, and this is a lot of money to me. I would eat the shipping charges. Thanks! bob
If you still want original-like PL-630 dampers, I can hook you up for less than ebay... they charge 13% + paypal 3% and shipping costs ~$6 You're in MD, so if you come get them in Herndon, VA, you can have them for $40
Like your avatar! The eye from Blade Runner! I made a small poster of this a few yrs ago. My all time favorite sci-fi film.
Thanks for responding. I lived in Sebastopol from 1990-1995. I'm sure it's changed a lot. I have the DMC-12 with phono input. It works great, and sounds fantastic. I play mostly vinyl. By the way, there are 3 Spectral dealers in the US,

Man, these are incredibly made amps, aren't they? Works of art, too. I hope the tech does a perfect job fixing it for you!
