OK, now I'm really interested. Not in the speakers but the Jon update. I spent many hours trying to track him down years ago with no luck. Pretty certain I found his sister and sent an old-fashioned

Re: Alon IV dq 20 replica
I've had DQ-20i and DQ-20, I let the former get away and found the latter

Re: Alon IV dq 20 replica
Same here. Had two sets of the 10, a 20, and a 20i
