    • Technics SL-1200G
    New (circa 2016) Direct Drive. Detachable headshell makes swapping cartridges a breeze.

I like everything about them better than the big black boxes, probably because I don't have to look at the big black boxes anymore ;)

I may be due for a party soon...you'll be sure to get an invite (as well as the two thread-bombers below)

Thanks Lowrider.
I estimate the sensitivity somewhere between 95 and 99 db based on the sensitivity of the 416s, from the spec sheet "99db SPL with 1 watt input from warble frequency of 100 to 1600 Hz measure on axis 4' from cone"

As far as footers go - I am looking for short footers, maybe 1" because I designed the cabinet so the woofer/tweeter junction is at my ear level in my listening chair. But that's mostly for aesthetics, not so much bass improvement.
