Re: Imperial !!!
That one has the AMP-182. Mine has the 8100 series amp. Have you been following my project, trying to find where the bass response escaped from mine? I still haven't found it....

I wish my Imperial was that cabinet style instead of French Provencial. That is one gorgeous piece of furniture.

Re: Imperial !!!
Wow I can just imagine seeing that, in an otherwise ordinary 1959 house, how that would set off any decor. Truly a pretty instrument, thanks for sharing.

Re: Imperial !!!
I am so jealous, Hydro. I love the way my Imperial sounds, won't trade it for anything, but so wish it was that cabinet. That is one gorgeous piece of furniture.
