More Bass Please!
#15

It makes my skin crawl when I see all this stuff being parted out because no one seems to want the consoles. I want them, but don't have the room and they always seem to be for sale at least 1000 miles from my location. Most of these old magnificent consoles had components matched to the cabinets and were fine sounding and a unit, but taking individual components out is just wrong! I know, the stuff seems to be worth more this way. Another thing that really bugs me is when I see "harp amplifier". What the H**l is that? Juice harp, Lyon and Healy Harp, Mouth organ??? Don't these turkeys know there are speaker/amps made just for that purpose? There are tons of them for sale every day.

I think I've pretty much decided to leave my Maggy alone, just as it is and accept the bass for what it is. I'm also waiting for an original Maggy FM tuner to install. Wondering how good it will be on sensitivity. I'm in kind of a fringe area for the good stations.
