Mine are Ascension Summoners. Little operation from SA. I love them. Big old 70s style floor standers.
As far as speakers go though, market place is really the best. Second hand hifi is chock full of bargains.

Looks like we got it downunder as a single, but not in the US.

Nice.
Iām just upgrading from some Krix (also SA) floor standers.
Saving up for some KLH Series 5, which Iāve not seen come up second hand. Itāll be the last set of speakers I ever buy.

Oh mate. Lovely speakers. Canāt go wrong with those. Absolutely beautiful.
Anything with that 70s era hifi design Iām a sucker for.

But it made the Billboard Rock chartā¦
I assume thatās just from radio airplay of an album track.

I guess so, but not sure how the ratings wouldāve been calculated.
But you couldnāt go very far that summer without hearing tracks from this album and Nevermind in every shop, bar or radio station.

@BAAKKEERRRR i picked up a sealed reissue of Curveās Cuckoo which had been marked down from (currency converting) around $65 to around $40. Still toying with whether or not to peel off the shrink and add it to collection, or sell it on at some point. I love the first few EPs and DoppelgƤnger has the two big singles, but Iāve just never been sure if I like/need Cuckoo or not. Is it a grower?
Nice score!
Itās pretty good, but definitely a step down from DoppelgƤnger. Follow-ups to ābigā albums generally go one of two ways: a complete U-turn, or more of the same, just not as good.
Cuckoo is probably the latterā¦

Yeah, they definitely had a knack for writing the same kind of song again and again. I dig Missing Link, but streaming the whole album again this week it wasnāt really grabbing me. Seems to be rated online, so maybe Iāll just flip it.
Itās a real gem! The reissue has been a long time in the making. Itās been on and off Neilās to do list for a long time.

It does tickle me that vinyls rating system is good means very very bad.
