Want more high frequency extension
Oh,Tvad, I did roll back into the AI L-1 some EH 6922 that I had. It did provide some extension. Thank you. I may try to hunt down a pair of the Siemens you mentioned.Regards,

To Hot to Handle?
Well, I have already done the dirty deeed. I bought a pair of AES Six Pacs tonight from Kevin at Upscale Audio, with the Jensen cap upgrade. While only 50 watts, they have a great amount of reserve I am told.So, we will see what it is like to have...
