And you never will again I think there might be less than half a dozen of those speakers in existence. They are extremely time consuming to make, and as the speaker manufacturer expanded their production they had to simplify the design.

John.......Your sound system is beautiful, well thought out, and meticulously installed. Very Impressive.

Good looking Gibson SG, too. I haven't ever seen a left handed SG before.

Thank you to all for all the kind comments.
Of course if any of you ever travel to Australia and visit Melbourne you would be more then welcome to stop in for a listen

He he, we just hide the volume control from you Keith, nothing else
In all honesty though, i have started thinking about another spinner. The new K-03 keeps calling my name, and now with all the extra shelf space it may just happen one day

The first think I thought of when checking out your system was "Sound Sanctuary".
Well done JohnA.
