Brian, interesting you bring up the Lowthers.
A friend and I got together this weekend for some fun. I brought two pairs of Lowthers (PM6C and PM6A), and he brought the cabinets (Lowther design big ports). With an 18 wpc, 300B amp, we discovered some of the MOST involving sound either of us has come across. We didn't even get to try the PM6As, but he wrote to me that he's spent the past two days listening exceptionally late into the night in absolute joy. Even his wife couldn't get over how terrific they sound.
In the end, we'll each have a pair of ported Lowther speakers, and I intend to see if my heavily modded M60 MKIIIs make a nice marriage with them.
