Carver CT-7 pre with FredR built WOPL 400 driving a pair of 1975 Infinity Monitor llAs while my original PL400 gets WOPLed. FredR builds a nice amp by the way.

Only one in the wild.

Not all WOPL'd. My retirement project. Steinway (civil war era) is in shop for full restoration.

Kappa 9's ? Bi-amped ?

 

[FredR]

Kappa 9's right?

They are. Known as amp killers due to 2 ohm impedance dips. No problem for WOPL. Assuming the fuses are big enough and you have the amps at the wall. They literally suck power out of the amp.

Yes. Bi-amped.

Very nice, they were on the top of my list if I could not find a set of Betas. Truthfully if I had the room and could find a nice pair I would add them to the collection but that's not happening anytime soon.

I was very fortunate to find them locally. My wife disagrees.

I hated it when the hookers slid off,...

It is an early WOPL control board, REV A IIRC. It is the best amp I've heard, that is until I WOPL these.View attachment 58156View attachment 58159

Have you thought about therapy Fred?

 

[laatsch55]

That's what the Kappa's are for....
