    These will def look cool...

    Here are those meters built almost ready to be installed in the rack. They will be useless but should look cool. They are massive meters. Original meters for a McIntosh M1000. I modified the electronics from a Teac MB20 to drive them. The are adjustable to 4 different levels -5 -10 -15 and -20 db.

    If you were using Martin Logan CLS speakers

    You could actually see how impossibly inefficient they are, when the meters indicate 800 watts and the music is barely audible.

    Here they are racked and complete

    Should add a nice ambience in a dark room with some nice jazz playing.

    Same with the Carver Amazing Platinums, I've seen an indicated 900 watts PER channnel and you could talk to your friend and barely raise your voice!.

    These are the kinds of things that, when shared, gives the rest of us something to shoot for. You've worked very hard to get where you're at, KUDOS -Steve G

    Now, THAT'S what I call a beautiful setup!!!

    BRAVO!!!

    It never ceases to amaze me, how beautiful a pair of JBL speakers can become in the hands of the right person and in the right environment.

    What is it with these big babies, that gets my heart pumping like crazy?

    There just is no other speaker brand out there, which does it for me like that.
