That was the basement systems testing - quite late in the day - Fred's existing L110s and L100s blew away the L1s, l20T3s and S-38_vIIs by a wide margin! (even with Loudness bump!)
But what a fun day - the drive down was great, the leaves along I66 and I81 were in full colour - and the company ... magnifique!
I'll dump my camera when I get home tonight and see if I have any good pictures - I kept forgetting to shoot!
The audio test was great - Fred's 4333s vs Phil's L7 4ways ... with Opimax's 120tis for grins later ...
I'll preface this by saying that I own 2 pairs of vintage systems, I'm used to the 15s/2420-horns/2405-slots sound, and I was really impressed with the L7 speakers - very very cool ... Its a great sound, different that the older horn systems, but still quite fine ...
I wouldn't swap either of my big pairs for a set of L7s - but that's just me because I know what mine sound like with lots of kinds of music - just as it took me a while to get used to the big horn speakers, I think it would take me a while to "unlearn" the sound I am currently most familiar with.
That said, if I didn't already own two big horn systems, I'd snap up a set of L7s in a heartbeat -
they have a great sound and are quite exciting to listen to ... and look to be a lot more affordable than the price on a set of the vintage 15" 3 or 4way systems.
