Room full o' Fronthorns pic

Since we just cannot seem to get enough of the Aussie fronthorns, here is a pic of Jack Roberts' listening room with TWO pairs of the horns - Ken brought his so we could A/B the Fostex drivers against Jack's Philco drivers (salvaged from some unloved console setup). That'd be Steve Killian futzing with the speaker cables in the center.

Yoiks!

Wow, Ken, that's some comment in your post about the construction of il Monstro - I don't think that my conventional construction will hold a candle (or a glow tube) to Stippich's fevered Nemo-esque constructions, but I do appreciate the vote of confidence. For those who are curious, I put up a quick pic of one of the signal chassis at the link below. There are three boxes left to finish: a mirror image left signal chassis and two monoblock power supplies. All will have matching tiger stripe maple bases with 13 gauge copper top plates and reworked transformers/chokes.

Thanks to Jack and Patty for a great afternoon.
