A1UC Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 and what do you think? legitimacy to the claims/build/expense, or total bullshit and incremental gains at best?It will be awhile on comparison both are top models . I had them at different locations finally hauled back tonight . Build Quality excellent on both . Not bullshit both are very good. I guess the big question would be is the high cost worth the incremental gains, which is up to the individual. As far as these models compared to anything under 10k I can say it's worth the cost me for what they bring . Now is it worth 3x 10 k lol I have to say no Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ability to hold three tonearms was their selling point. At the time I couldn't afford one tonearm. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave MacKay Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Today I received a pair of new tweeters from DaveA for my 1986 La Scalas. The new SMAHL v2 lenses and DE-120 drivers will replace the K-77M Ceramic (square magnet) tweeters that are currently in the speakers. New tweeters I had planned on painting the new lenses black, but they look so good that I'm reconsidering that. Old tweeters I plan to run REW before and after installing the new tweeters to see what difference they make. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

314carpenter Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 5 new seats for my theater. Fast delivery, ordered on Christmas Day. Black leather sofa replaces a red leather console loveseat. The settee came from an antique store. It's already restored, but I will reupholster it later anyway. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was fun. 😎 <edited> Without changing the caps for each different tweeter, the results would not let each tweeter sound like it could & should. I can say that I like how smooth and detailed Dave's tweeters sound, including on the 250s. I have some L MAHL on the MCM1900. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I currently have the SMAHL DE120 combo in my 79 CWs and was considering another set for my 75 LS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPower Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I did not get this today, but actually last October. But today is the first the TD 160 plated some hi quality music. My tech and I did a ton of work, most unexpected due to a very dishonest seller. 😮 And some of the work was upgrades and some was for cosmetics. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
