    Seems the PS-1400 was very prone to an amp failure, and that IMO really turned people away from that otherwise stellar system.

    So much has happened during my absence from this forum. This is one thread I did not want to see, but am pleased that so many remembered and spoke well of Tom.

    I am blessed to have known Tom...

    IIRC from my tech school days, electricity travels about 90% of the speed of light. That's about 165,000 miles per second or 871,000,000 feet per second (VERY rough numbers). If the long cable ran to...

    Sweet!

    One of the things I've found curious is why the cards mount with the component side down? It's really not much if an issue for passives like caps, but the LF board has an option for an...

    Thanks for your offer! All I need is one card to validate the physical aspects. The layout appears to use standard through hole spacing, but having examples of the HF and LF cards would speed things...

    More measurements needed - any volunteers

    I also need a couple of other dimensions for verification purposes. To get these you would need to remove one of the cards. It should be pretty easy to do so, but with the rarity of the DX-1 I would...

    The easy part

    I have done my best using photographs (Bless JBL for the 0.05" hatch marks on the main board) but I really need a test fit to make sure. I figure that this community is the most likely to locate a...

    What I need help with

    One of my design decisions is that I want the crossover cards to be electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the originals. The electrical is a slam dunk as I have photos showing the...

    You did great finding a pair so quickly and at a great price too! I'd only mentioned them to give you awareness as you began your search. Before I got my pair I'd scoured CL, eBay, and other sites...

    I'd also recommend the L1's, but also add 18Ti's, and XPL-90A's. All three will fit in your budget, though the L1's are more likely to pop up.

    I listen to 18Ti's all day in my office and find...
