Or the tooling, the materials and the expertise to make my own Hartley 24 inch woofers.

My wish for Christmas is to buy lots of music on vinyl which will make me get my record player going again.

Really intrigued as to how these would sound but they are way out of my price league.

Well, since it is an audio wish list I'd like a pair of Neumann shotgun mics please (£1,500 each).
