mike, so what's not advisable? spending lot of time mixing on them?
scott, i think these are supposed to be updated and better then the
horrortones. but then again the website says they are "full range" and
i don't know what they mean by that.

i'll probably never A/B them
with the originals so never know for sure. i have noticed a few people
mastering with them as secondaries. they make a powered version but no
one has them in stock and can't find them used. but i think i can pick
up the passives.
so i take it you are both in the drive crap with crap camp. ha.
the bryston b2 i'm looking at is $365 and looks to be prehistoric. all
it says on the front is bryston and i can't tell how you control the
amp level.
