More Bass Please!
#14

The McMurdo Silver Masterpiece V uses an 18 inch Jensen Super Giant speaker. That speaker alone is going for $4000+ due to the audiophools using them in custom stereo speaker setups. It's causing some of those great Masterpiece sets to be parted out for the speakers, just like with the Maggie Windsors and their tweeters.

Harry, I have an aftermarket FM tuner in my Regency (with many thanks to Bob "Joybird"), and it does sound good on FM even with what certainly seems to be lack of bass. I also have an original Magnavox FM tuner thanks to Doug Houston, but I have not yet recapped it for use in the Regency.
