in Speakers
These are what I have at retirement home lol. Is anyone into single driver speakers? If so why? It's something that I maybe can afford to explore. Does anyone run singles for their mains,if so tell me about it. Thanks

I like single-drivers (and coaxes) but my tastes run a little afield of the 141s.
Maybe you'd like to try a pair of Tektons or Ed Schilling's "The Horns"?
Our (current) retirement home is spacious enough to accommodate some option creation
In fact, when we first brought the NH house on line, I started with a pair of fullrangers.
(these are Fostex FE207E 8" twincones in 1 ft^3 BR cabinets)

later, as you know, things got more -- cluttered.

(these are Radio Shack 40-1354 5-1/4" twincone drivers in mass loaded folded, tapered quarter-wave tubes)
Finally, these are a pair of Pioneer/Parts Express "69 cent wonders" in 'optimal' BR cabinets built by my son as a high school science fair project.

(the Duplexes look on approvingly and perhaps a bit paternally)
No Boses here these days; I did have a pair of 201s for a while; I thought they were pretty respectable.
