fair enough (I thought they did a speaker with a full range fostex).

Hello chaps

The speaker has one full range fostex drive unit and is a different loudspeaker to the one that's in the current range, which indeed
is a two way. Eric doesn't make full rangers anymore but still specialises in high sensitivity speakers.

Mono loudspeaker! Yes indeed.

The essence of life is simplicity and i bring that spiritual understanding into my hi-fi sytem. My system is as simple as i can make it and sounds
wonderful because of it.

Life is simple and so is my system!

Less, truly is more.

You will be wanting to try a single NVA monoblock then.

Doc, would you make a mono pre/system?

Musical enjoyment has nothing to do with how many boxes you have. The Hi-fi industry exploits the unconscious.

Power amps of course you can have mono, pre amps apart from antiques no monos, just use one side is the obvious option.

I Foresee a problem , if you use one channel you will lose all information on the other channel.

Having considered it further , one speaker & mono is a ludicrous idea ;)

even if you are deaf in one ear , turn your head to the side .

Let me clarify.
Both channels of the stereo amplifier are going into the single speaker
