Thanks Colin for the link. I’ve always felt Peter’s design philosophy re speakers comes through with the WD25T’s I built. They play music well and you find yourself putting on “just one more” record time and again.

Thank you Colin. This was very interesting. He speaks very eloquently. I also have the WD25T's and am very happy with them. Simon

Hi/All
Yep, I had the Haybrooks HB-1s Back in the day Running from a Mission Cyrus one amp and my AR-EB 101 turntable which is the only part of that early system I still have today I recall the HB1s worked at their best on their dedicated stands near to the wall which was essential for me at that time

The Missions were great sounding speaker, I spent a few weeks in 1984 on their production line, at the time when they also did the Cyrus amp, they had just at that time brought in an expensive bit of equipment to check newly finished circuit boards.

Many thanks for the link Colin. Terry and Peter are very good in that interview aren’t they and Peter must be an amazing asset to IAG. It would be especially good if manufacturing returned here!
