Hi Dave, Thanks for the comments and info! I went to hear an EL40
today, which the fellow that owned kindly offered to let me listen
to him put it through it's paces so I would have an idea. Well, it
was great, I am currently bidding on a EL60 model, which I hope to
win, but if I dont, I'm going to hold out and get an EL model 40 or
upward as I at least know they sound great, and that sound system in
the 90 sounds like it is a killer! :) Thinking about it, if I cannot
afford a good EL model, maybe I aught to think about a top of the
range from the previous generation, simply to get the sound? Anyway,
Im hoping to win the auction so am thinking positive, but have to
face the fact I might get outbid!

Cheers, Malc.
