    At a party last night.

    Hi friends. Last night I was invited to a party, in a large tent. There was about 25 people there. Entering the party (tent) I heard music, not so nice sound, but there was something.

    After I got permission to look at the system, this is what I found. (see pictures below, and note that it was not me turning the bass control to max. The pictures was take nd the day after. (Today).

    I skip the CD Player, but the amp is a Marantz PM7000, with the champagne colored front. Anybody have info of this amp?

    The speakers are Sherwood. Model LSP 1415. 15" driver + mid +high. The bass port seems to me to have been done later, and not original. Anybody know this speaker?

    Take a look at the pictures and give some feedback.

    You can find a rough review on the PM7000 here:

    I have used the amp many times and found them quite adequate.

    Not sure I would want to go with the Sherwoods though

    Did it sound better after they disconnected the speaker outputs?

    Damn, the thread's title had me all excited. I thought the OP had gone to a party and there were rows of 4520s and 4560s, powered by stacks of BGW power amps, testing the resistance of the house's structure and human ears' threshold of pain

    make your way to colorado, on summer weekends nearest the full moon...



    i can put you in touch....

    The Rocky Mountains have become a source of constant inspiration. Although the high altitude makes for a shorter outdoor party season than the Bay Area, the abundance of remote spaces and breathtaking views of sunrise after a full moon party at 10,000 ft. are incomparable.

    The Colorado "rave scene" has largely come and gone with little involvement from us. Instead, we have spent many wonderful Sunday afternoons at sunset parties (with respect to Pacific Soundsystem in SF), splashing in the creek, barbequeing chicken and making sure even the youngest dancers could get their boogie on and still make it to bed in time for kindergarten on Monday.

    We’ve introduced countless urban party kids to the mountains in their backyard. We’ve turned warehouses into temporary art galleries, and restaurant buffet rooms into discos. Sure, we've played a lot of records, but we’ve developed as many friendships, and more importantly, a community...one which shares our love of "it."
