| TAD-125 Monoblocks Picked up a pair for a steal a few weeks back. I am running them in my two channel a/v system with a late 80's vintage Carver pre-amp, Triangle Titus XS monitors and a similar vintage M&K sub. I would concur with the comments in general regard... | |

| Why not horns? Thanks MJ, I will consider that advice.Unfortunately for horns, I am drowning in good sound everywhere at the moment already and not enough time to listen to what I already have, so I am not feeling the need to make another major investment quite ... | |
