Update – where have I been?
I haven’t written in a while, so here’s a quick update of what’s going on:
1. I’m in the process of a full restoration of the Polk 7Bs – I want to see how far I can take them. Right now everything is disassembled and I have pulled the vinyl wrap off of them. I have component and hardware lists, and have started to order parts. This should be fun.
2. I’m sending in my Pioneer SX-1250 for a full recap – it works and sounds find now (lots of power) but I’m very curious to hear what a full resto does to vintage gear. Stay tuned.
3. Circulating through my collection: Pioneer SX-727, SX-780, SX-750. All neat, all with different sounds. I’ll get to reviewing them eventually.
4. Speakers – I still have too many pairs to count that I haven’t reviewed here yet. A few notables who have passed through lately: Acoustic Research AR2AX, and a number of Realistic Nova 8s.
5. I just made a new discovery last night that I’ll write about in more detail in the next post – wow!!
