    I shudder at the thought. In my meager time with A/V, I've owned two receivers and two processors. My first AVR dispersed the magic blue smoke right before my eyes....you can never unsee that and hope you never see it again.....

    I have only gotten it twice in my life. One with an 8 watt tube amp and the the other one knocked out 2 amplifiers that had JUST gotten back from service. A lightning strike was the cause for the second one....the system was on when it hit, so the electronics that were frying while the speakers were going?.....well, it amplified the system frying through the speakers.

    That's a sound one never forgets.

    Yeah, why weren't they consistent in their use of fractions and say 3 Laps was 1 1/5 Miles? Sheesh.

    Adds a nice zing in the treble.
    I hope the Tekton folks don't see this -- it may give them ideas.

    PS Hmmm... maybe I should do a resto-mod on my 7As?
    PPS In fairness, Polk did use those tweeters in one product. ;):#
