Today the Tone Priest builds an enclosure for his 1960 RCA 189b hi-fi tube amp pulled from an old console stereo. Then he mates it with a pair of Infinity RS2000 speakers to see if they agree better with it than the Dayton Audio bookshelf speakers did. Polishing the heard.

Looks like Alice Cooper is a blocker. 14 second segment trimmed. Another classic rocker whose music will fade away.
