I was at a local dealer's and tried to lift a Constellation amp.   could not even budge it.  my PS amp weighs about 85 lbs and that is a gracious plenty.

Joseph is one of the very few brands at this point i would consider for new speakers, along with the upcoming PS Audio speakers.  But since i just got the 3.7's and they are finally broken in (they sound great), i best quit looking around.

those were the days before TAS and Stereophile started making headway.   But by 1978 or so i quite reading SR and followed TAS and HP.  I am 65,  so officially old :).   Julian was from the school that said if you could not measure it,  it was not... 
Thiel Owners
sheesh.   should have said "who here", not who hears. i should not post this late in the day :) 
Thiel Owners
