I have been an audiophile since my youth. First good diy speakers were Wharfedale Unit 5 three ways. Great with my Lenco L78 and Goodmans 110 receiver. Progressed through various speaker builds. A nice one was a Proac R2.5 clone but my favourite so far is a Falcon kit for my T27/B110 Kefs from the seventies with a matched to serial numbers crossover. Also done some amp building , SunAudio 300B and SunAudio pre amp, as well as OTLs from Bruce Rozenblit.
Hello! Is Bilambil considered part of the Gold Coast? Honeymooned in Australia, want to go back!!!
G'day Marcel, welcome to the forums!
Bilambil is in New South Wales, Gold Coast is in Queensland, the next state north. It's only a short drive to the Gold Coast.

Welcome to diyAudio :^)
Nice rural place south of Brisbane?
OTLs … you are a candidate for high impedance loudspeakers.

I have put the OTLs on the back burner. The Beast Jr with 8 EL509 tubes for each monoblock was chewing tubes. I don’t have a tube tester for those and at 60 USD each it was getting a bit expensive. I have found the wiring fault but haven’t bought new tubes yet. May decide to pass them on.
Now using a low power Sparkler amp with 15 inch FR Audio Nirvana Classics in a 300 ltr cabinet. Very happy with the sound.
