Yep, When a friend of mine got out of the service in '76, he decided
he wasn't going to fool around with buying a cheap stereo and upgrade/
replacing as the time went by so he bit it and spend a crap load of
cash.
At the time he had a 200w. McIntosh MC2205 amplifier,a Technics
Quadraphonic receiver, an Italian made *Leesavox turntable,and 4 *cone
drivers *(Ohm"F" models.) *if i remember correctly he said those
speakers were about $400.00 each in 1973 or 74 ( I can't remember).
For the day it seemed beyond fantastic.
I still have a pair of those big honking Sansui 1970's disco speakers.
Everyone keeps trying to say these new book shelf speakers are as
good, until I crank them up.
I have them out in the Tiki bar now and they are enough to fill the
whole pool deck with big old thumping sound. I do try to be sensitive
to my neighbors but most of them will be back in Michigan in a couple
of weeks anyway.
"There's no replacement for displacement"
Proven fact Greg.
