RE: Fulton FMI-80

I have a pair of FMI-80's although they haven't been used for several years. They definitely like a tube amp and I have had very good results with vintage push-pull amps like a modified Dyna ST-70 or EICO HF-35.

I heard a story many years ago that Bob Fulton was visiting one of his dealers (Pro Musica) and was manning the store alone while the store employees went out to lunch. A customer stopped in and wanted to hear the Fulton J-Modulars but the only amp available was a stock Dyna 70. Fulton said he had no reservations about demonstrating the speakers with the Dyna, and the customer was so impressed he bought the speakers. So if the ST-70 is good enough for a J-Mod setup, I don't think it would be a bad choice for the FMI-80 alone.
