RE: Is there a classic audio component you wish you'd owned?

I'd heard ML's a couple of times before I got the Acoustats. So long ago I couldn't tell you the models. They sounded really good, but at the time I was still deeply into my Vandys with Counterpoint amps, and wasn't seriously considering a change.

Not too long after hearing the MLs, I got hooked up with the gentleman that rebuilt my servo amps on these very boards. Discovered we weren't that far apart, him in OKC and me in DFW. I got several extended listening sessions with his personal Acoustat setup. After one of those sessions, on the drive home, I decided it was time to move on from the Vandys and into a pair of Monitor IVs.

Directly driven, full-range stats are a real treat. Plus, the Acoustat panels are virtually indestructible and last forever (possibly). My panels were made in 1980 and still as new. There's some pics in my gallery if you're interested.
