Yes indeed @jaytor! As you know, the OB/Dipole Sub is THE sub for dipole loudspeakers. It sounds somewhat like the bass panels of the Tympani T-IV, dontcha think?

Oh yeah, now I see the six tuners on the Mosrite. The Ventures On Stage album is great, recorded at shows in Japan, England, and the USA. I saw them perform about 20 years ago, on a cruise ship tri...

Awesome! Dr, Edgar came into Brooks Berdan Ltd. on Saturdays fairly regularly over the years I hung out there, but for some reason Brooks never had a pair of Edgar's horn loudspeakers on demo. Bruc...

Nice instrument collection too. Between the Les Paul, Strat, Tele, Epiphone ES335 (the Gibson version has gotten too expensive, hasn't it?), Martin, and Fender Deluxe (no reverb? ;-), you got it al...

The Wall Damp material has a thin layer of adhesive on each side. The stuff is like fly paper! ASC sells it in 4" squares, 1.5" x 4' strips, and roll ends by the lb.
