    Macintosh 225 tube amp

    I haven't been on here for some time as I've been busy with work and some other things. I recently came into possession of a rough Mac 225 that my oldest son had picked up. He was a scrapper and jack of all trades and passed away at 58, 3 months ago from heart disease brought on by a misspent...

    What happened to the EV / Telex website

    I used to find all kinds of info on the EV website for vintage speakers , drivers , and crossovers, as well as assorted electronics. I know Bosch bought them out. Does anyone know if the info is still there anywhere ? Thanks .

    Since these will be floor speakers I'll make new baffles to mount the tweeters at the top.

    Electro Voice Esquire Restoration

    I picked these up locally from an old musician/hi-fi nerd a while back and have been using them in a basement workshop system . They sound pretty good for what they are. I've noticed that the highs seem to come through better than on some of my other systems so I decided to restore them. The...

    Speakerlab Khorns

    I'd say go for 'em . I've had a pair for probably 15 years. Upgraded the mids and tweeters with EV HR90s and ST350s. Also using an EV electronic crossover and bi-amp for low to mid and couldn't be happier with the sound.

    My redhead wife of 50 years has also supported my audio addiction although I sometimes think she questions my sanity !!! Your wife has a beautiful smile and is obviously a blessing for you ! "It is hard to find a good wife because she is worth more than rubies."(Proverbs 31:10)
