    Wonder if you could lay one of those horizontally for a center speaker :p

    From the looks of his amps, they are OTL designs, lets hope he doesn't drop any tubes - that's a LOT of drivers to replace.

    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    It doesn't look like the owner isn't waiting on his Social Security Check to shop for his tube rolling sessions.

    I would like to hear his system, I'll bet its not half bad!

    Russ, looks like the whole rig is powered by ASL. The pre is an ASL AQ2006DT or previous model. The mono blocks aren't OTL, they're ASL Hurricane's. 200W of pure tube power. EIGHT KT88 and three 6SN7 per mono block. Jesus H Christ!!!!!:eek: .
