Inside the system

A three-way horn system combines RCA MI-9462 bass horns, Altec 1505 multicells with JBL 375 drivers, and JBL 077 tweeters. University C15W woofers load the RCA cabinets; an in-house passive crossover joins the sections. JJ Electronic 323 amplification and a JJ 243 preamplifier serve a VPI Scout with JMW9 arm and a modified Marantz CD-4000. Cartridges vary, so no single cartridge model is assigned to the installation.
