    Smile Rock of the Westies

    I made the 300 mile round trip to the desert today to Ken Pachkowsky's to give a listen to his Westlakes. Here's the proud owner with one of his babies.



    His amps are the bomb, as well, not to mention the crossovers he's working to restore.

    Smile Into the Throat of the Beast

    Here's a full frontal shot of the R Westlake, straight into the throat(s) of the horn(s). Beautiful to behold and to hear, the cabs and walnut horns are lovingly restored by Ken.

    Thumbs up Fire Within

    Ken's tube preamp is a thing of beauty. I had to use a little PhotoShop to try to capture the fire that lurks within the glass windows. It must be amazing at night. It has a sweet sound, but not sugar sweet: su-weeet!

    Note to Lancer

    Do these Westlakes qualify as "real horns"?

    They're very impressive. They will definitley rock out.

    I wish I had taken some dance tracks and club mixes.

    Anytime bud

    You are more than welcome. Like you, I love to share this passion we have. You have a broad appreciation of fine music. I was most impressed with dynamic range of the Arabic fusion CD you brought. Who was it again?

    I hope I can get by to hear your system as well.
    Who’s next?

    Ken
