@jaytor *L* + on the 1B's...I had a pair of those....became an amt driver fan to the point of buying a pair of Just the drivers. Didn't bother with what was underneath them.... ;) An amazing device...
'Most fun'? Mmm...dialing the Wayback machine....a pair of Bose 901v2's, driven by a Marantz 2270 with an AR tt. Think it had a Stanton cart on it, but that's where memory fades....
But I do remember how the 901's could drown out conscious thought *L*
If I felt the need to rattle anything not bolted down or too heavy to vibrate, the 2270 could drive them until the bass line made the pilot lights dim to the beat...
At that point, better judgement prevailed before heat cooked it... ;)
All items survived that era and moved on to others, as I did. *S*
