I think Kal is referring to the console system posted originally by the op. I could be wrong. The Paragon system is obviously quite different that the Valencias. Great speakers, the Valencias. I've had several pairs of vintage Altecs myself. Love em. Not consoles, obviously.
Yup, I was referring to the console system. The Paragon is sui generis and, even back in the old days, I preferred my A7s.
