sberger Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I am the new owner of a speaker that I have lusted over for awhile. These are from 1971, Walnut Oil finish and they look absolutely stunning. They've had pretty much all the Crites upgrades done to them. Got them by trading upgraded Fortes and a Fisher 500C receiver but had them delivered by the previous owner so a great deal as far as I'm concerned. And I've still got 3 restored Heathkit amps(UA-1, W-5M, W-7) and a Fisher 400 so not going to miss the 500C. And because these go against the walls in my rather small living room, my wife is actually ok with them as we now have more floor space available. Score!

Mighty Favog Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Now when you say "most" of the Crites' mods, does that include the final coup de gras Corscala mod?? [] (working on mine now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 The Fisher 400 should work well with these speakers. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sberger Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 Not the Cornscala. Still have to determine if I want to go that route. Tweets, mid, woofer and crossover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sberger Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 You're right. Haven't tried it yet. Having too much fun first with the 14 watt UA-1's, and now with the 25 watt(feel that bass!) W-5M's. At some point will get my 55 watt W-7's in there. That should wake up the neighborhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
