JBL 1400 Array's
Replaced a pair of JBL 4350's in my room - and that takes some doing ! Running with a Krell KSA150 and very pleased with the results. They do all but the lowest octave better than the 4350.A very, very good speaker IMHO.

Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
I'm with Pubul57 on this one.The Lightspeed has been provoking debate since its inception. Here in Australia, it has had a long gestation period, with some loving it and others the opposite. Similar to what happened over on Audio Asylum I recall. ...

Ideas on the Usher AC-20?
I recently purchased a pair here in Australia and while I would tend to agree with the "lean and neutral" comments above, they are some of the best speakers I have heard. I have tried them with eveything from Vintage EL34 Valves through to 100 wpc...
