Yes I know it's a loaded question but not totally off the mark.
I deign and build loudspeakers. I currently use a hybrid open baffle and since it is not a commercially available speaker I know you won't be able to comment on the speaker. Now I DO know that my pre and Amp are late 1980's and 1990's vintage and I was looking for a "whoa they've come a long way since then" or "It's still great equipment don't bother" I hope this gives some insight as to why i asked the way I did.
