Hi m;
I was so 'head-over-heals' with the amps, that I did not pay attention, The seller may have mentioned, but I just fired of an email.
S/N 7A 9458 is quasi, S/N 7A 11521 is full complimentary. The latter is in worse shape inside but I want to "WOPL" it and have it drive mids in my 84" self-designed line arrays. BTW, both have steel chassis and 1/4" inputs!

Hi Brad;
Thanks for your interest! I won't pass up an opportunity to show off my system. Here is my rack with 2 PL's. I actually had to replace the old PL 700 on the bottom with a modified Crest C-18. Is Crest a bad word in this forum?! View attachment 36038 View attachment 36038 View attachment 36038 I needed the 1000 wpc/ 8 ohm, to drive the RCF 18" LF's I more or less copied JBL cinema sub cabinets., the lower resonance is 19 Hz. The LF cabs are 172 lbs each, loaded ( I used 1" mdf).

Sounds good but I'm afraid all the neighbors here are more concerned that their pets are currently terrified of the illegal fireworks they've been setting off somewhere around here, including 'M-80s', my neighbor's golden retriever is having a panic attack and her mommy is trying hard to calm her down plus my cat Stripey was already bummed that Spot seems to have died but I can't find her, about 4 daze ago on my birthday and they were best buddies, I'm hoping my last cat comes back and has the dinner I was about to go out and serve when it all started.
Our police force is tiny and stretched as it is and they have many other calls in between trying to keep idiots from potentially killing themselves so I was out looking to spot them but my cordless can't make it but a house or so down the street.
Even Lee has gotten a visit from the Gillette police about his WOPL once. He has good reason not to want to get in the hair of the cops or sheriff's department there anyway, I know about that sheriff in question. He was lucky in Rock Springs.
PS I'm about certain something I was playing unattended on the CD changer took out what was left of my Pioneer AV receiver (neither A nor B make a peep now) and I think it was from fumbling with the black buttons on a black face and probably switching the amp class by mistake. GRRR.
Moving the speakers between A and B did nothing, and why would you put such a switch on the panel where it can accidentally be pressed with a signal present? I have some swear words I can't use here.

Sniff,
I have two more Clair Bros Audio PL700 Amps to add to your list. They will both be getting the full WOPL treatment.
They are S/N 9469 (This one has "A.H." engraved on the side) and S/N 12078.
I think we are getting closer to converting every Clair Bros Audio amp to WOPL and that is quite an achievement. I wonder how many they had, all told?
