Description

A modest system put together from about 1975-76 starting with constructing the full range speakers using speaker parts from Speakerlab, a company founded in Seattle a few years earlier. Added sub bass units later using JBL drives. These speakers have remained the same since except for switching to active crossovers. All electronics have been upgraded thought the years, the biggest change going to an active crossover, Rane 23 and hooking amps directly to speaker drives.

The preamps used include Dynaco PAT5, Sherwood 6020, Harman Kardon Citation 23, Audio Research LS3, and now the Classe Dr5. Amps include SWTP Tigersoras- a bag kit I put together, Heathkit AA1640, Hafler 500, Sherwood 6040, now using the Parasound/Harman combo.

Have tried various tweeks over the years and looked for low costs ways to improve system.
