Apology accepted. :thumbup:

That is gorgeous! ❤️ Lovin the walnut panels. Speaker a classic? Haven't heard of Electrovoice, but feel like I should have :think:

The speakers are from the 60s. Sound great, just less power handling than the current EVM12L. I managed to get two.

Sometimes I think I sustained permanent hearing damage from being in the same room while a couple of EVM speakers were doing their thing back in the mid 90’s. Seriously loud but oh so articulate

Maybe I should let the wife know so I have a genuine reason for not listening to her

I had a hearing test a few years ago at the wife's behest. Apparently I suffer from selective hearing...

Jeez Marshmallow, I'd like to formally complain about your amp posts. You are setting the bar too high.

Must admit I am severely tempted by the Trainwreck build that's currently on TM, looks like it's one of Marshmallow's builds

If it's still available when my LP sells I'm thinking I might grab it :D
