There are IMO plenty of good old speakers around (the Arthur Bailey
transmission line monitors, Tannoy monitor gold (or even grfs!) ) These were
well revued at the time however it was noticeable that the Leak speakers
never received good revues!

** Not a single one.

Even the kindest were barely luke warm.

The Leak 600 was a god-awful pile of ****.

ISTR it's main feature was a very rigid cone which was stood on by 'Mr
Leak', probably the most useful thing you could do with his speakers was to
stand on them :-)
He produced some nice sounding early transistor amplifiers.

No, actually I think he did the stereo 30 and the stereo 70?

To rephrase my nonsense above, actually I think Leak produced some nice
sounding early transistor amplifiers the Stereo 30 and the 70. They weren't
_that_ will revued but to my mind they sounded good. In those days there was
a 'transistor sound' and quite a bit of noise as well.

Actually IIRC 'Leak's' first transistor amp was a design essentially nicked
from someone else. I have one in a cupboard, and it looks like poor design
and construction to me. Only have it because someone gave it to me along
with a Troughline tuner.

Slainte,

Had you thought of seeing a shrink? If you get this excited and abusive over
the merits or demerits of a pair of cheap 2nd hand speakers, I think you
badly need one.
