  1. I picked up a pair of CWs near Orlando last summer. $700 and they look fantastic. When I first plugged them in after I got them home, I was pretty disappointed. Yes, I bought them sight unheard. I picked up new caps from JEM. The first listen after the network refresh made the hairs on my arms stand up. Today they sit on either side of a 100” screen and ust projector. I am immersed!

  2. Ok, I just finished my first dedicated home theater centered on a Hisence 100 L9G UST. I’m running a pair of Cornwalls up front with some KG5.5s in the rear. I guess I’m not really finished as there are more surround/atmos speakers needed. I think I need these La Scalas up front and the CWs to the rear. Am I crazy? PM sent!

  3. I picked up a pair of 83 Cornwalls with original cane grills from eBay last week. It was a 900 mile round trip to get them but the price was really good. I got them home and hooked the up to my Dynaco VTA 70 amp and they sounded HARSH. I gave Jim a call at JEM Performance and he sent caps to me. I looked over the Crites and ALK options but I wanted to keep them as close to the B-2 network as possible. The caps came yesterday and I installed them today. Man, what a difference! Smooth as butter and the sound-stage was truly 3D. I felt immersed in I, Robot. Amplifier's Where the River Goes sounded incredible. Thank you Paul for building an incredible speaker and thank you Jim for resurrecting them!

    Wow! Last time I posted an ad from a different source, someone pulled my ad AND I got reprimanded for not posting in the "ALERTS" section. frankgh got off easy!

    It is not my ad and I thought I was in Alerts when I posted it, that’s why I immediately asked if a mod could move it. I’m sorry if you feel slighted.
