RE: What Speakers Are You Using for Low Power SETs?

As I recall, at the last (and greatest) VSAC Doc used 8 300b amps to drive the 8's. Too bad Bottlehead doesn't support a speaker product anymore. 15 years ago there were a number of players, but may have vanished. I'm thinking Hammer Dynamics, Bottlehead, there was Wayne at Pi, Cain & Cain, and another one - can't remember the name but seemed like a 12" in a BR cab. Too bad about Hammer - I remember them being by far the best sounding at the conference before the last one. I just couldn't pony up the $$ back then (two teen girls to put through school/ sports). Also too bad about Terry Cain, wonderful guy. Got to visit his shop in Walla Walla and go see some of his speaks in the local wine bars. Wayne has survived and done well. His are the "big box" sort, but very, very well done. I was listening to my 4pi knock offs tonight and thinking the soundstage in my 12x10 listening room was just amazing.
