Buddha, I used to own the Apt-Holman preamp. I used it with an SAE power amp and Rectilinear III speakers. The system sounded terrific. As I recall.

Of course, I always recall differently, as per where I am on the CRDS (Clifton Relatively Drunken Scale). But, as you well know, memory is flawed no matter WHAT one's functioning brain-cell count might be, at any particular moment (falsely highlighted within the flux of time), so why rely on it?

I can understand your attraction to these speakers. They remind me of my ex-wife. Neat on the outside, and nasty to the core. And, I haven't even heard them (I can tell by their whitewashed exteriors and their dark, dark holes...).

Concrete. I, too, am in love. I have learned to never love anything that rots, and concrete is probably the best we can do, these days...

Say hello to Mike.

Those speakers look like urinal stands especially in that picture where they're positioned on a tile floor.

My wife thinks they look like those tuba-shaped ventilation structures on the deck of a ship.

Not that much. The cabinet is ported in back - maybe 1/2 inch?

They weighed about 60 pounds.
