Sorry, but I have to "snob" here. I grew up on a Williamson
HiFi....807's in push-pull.

Funny, you know. It was crap (distortion was hifi at below 10%) BUT
SOUNDED GOOD.

Somehow the MUSIC (hang on to that part of listening) helped.

I remember a joke that my Old Man told me. A hifi buff comes out of a
symphonic performance......"not enough treble there...."

I once had a pair of homebuilt speaker cabinets. Each with a 15" JBL in
the bottom, and a large green Altec horn above. Regret parting with
those.

S'pose I should add my two bits. (Yeah, like they even cost that much to
build.)

Made two of these, mid/tweeter, connected in parallel with my vintage 1959
Magnavox console stereo cabs, doesn't sound bad through my vintage-ish
(why,
homemade of course) tube amps.

What are you using for output, Tim? The larger amps are using KT-88's,
or slightly smaller ones 6L6's. My first amp, a McIntosh 240, used the
6L6's. A great sound, but not as clean as solid state. That should open
the endless debate! :-)
