Notice that its all about the feeling,the valvyness ,to reproduce the warm tones like the reggae scoops etc..

where as id go solid class a/b Bjt with say 8(!hahah!) labhorns and see what happens.
BTW did u hear,a french company COPIED the labhorn and were at an event in europe,some one in the prosoundweb forum.

its not really 96kw valve power :-P(which is the first impression you get)

perhaps valve pre amp-or music recorded with fuzzy valve harmonics

its funny how people measure audio systems goodness,by INPUT POWER not OUTPUT power/dbA. Cant see what highs or midrange are there.

Id take adrians system anyday ! i trust the design !

Cheers

Wow, Mike, that's cool! Looks like those guys have a helluva sound system. And I'm with you on Adrian's speakers. They look excellent, and I'm sure they sound that way too. But now you, you're absolutely the only guy I know with a basshorn in your car!!!
