" thoft62 posts10-27-2020 12:12amSo uh there’s a set of 3.6 for sale next state over. They’re asking 1500. It’s itchy.."I've owned my 3.6's since shortly after they were released in late 1993. I still find their sound very very satisfying.  I sur...

My first real audio system was built around a pair of the original large walnut Advents. I later added a second pair to have "stacked Advents". They were $250/pr back in  74-75, and were "fair traded" meaning that dealers were prohibited by Advent...

A moderate priced dac

I bought a pair of 3.6's in 1993 and have been enjoying them ever since. They make reproduced music sound like live music, and that's all you can ask of an audio system.  I've driven them with a variety of power amps over the years.  For many year...
