This Sakuma’s is kind of BS. What I mean is that it has the appeal to be “good thinking” but only in the realm of marketing hype, something that the editor of “Direct Heating” had created around Sakuma. The reality is that the Sakuma’s TWO channel Am...

With regards to the links, as it happens, I totally agree that 15in Tannoy Reds struggle to handle complex music. The crossover is too simplistic and the cones too hard to control with a low power amp. Reds can be lovely in a simple vintage system bu...

[quote user="darkmoebius"] That's because "off the shelf" amps can be easily resold for little or no loss of money if they are not to the buyer's liking. The Melquiades, on the other hand, leaves the builder with $3,000 worth of parts not easily reso...
