Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: What were your big leaps in audio

Charles;

Yup, it's the Sherwood S-5000.

Mikey said it's one of the best he's heard (super clean).
He installed tin/foil caps on the input grids that took a while getting there, that's the reason for the wait.

The Sherwood should be magic on my Alcorns - Altec mid driver, Beyma tweeter, Klipsch Cornwall bottom end.
They're probably around 98 to 100 db so they shouldn't stress the 15'ish wpc Sherwood at all.

If it sounds as good as I hope, I will be doing a Citation II and a AR SP3 in the spring (I mean Mikey will). I have a hankering for a pair of Martin Logan Ethos and the Citation deuce should do the trick on the stats, but that for another day. Right now I'm just looking forward to the humble little Sherwood sitting on my rack churning out great sounding music. :)
