I was there too.
IIRC there was an S6 (?) my KSL-SFz and Pete’s AN S9

Not sure you are going to find a solution to that problem.
The output of the Io is so low that I fear noise would be a big problem if you tried to amplify that to line level in one go.
Effectively rules out a valve solution too.

The best sound I get with the elite is always with the Smart Tractor using uni din alignment.

…and Pete’s silver Slagle (now mine)
I haven’t got one of those - for now I used the Dr Feickert

Still going strong Olan 
- I’m just now replacing the ‘silent bands’ (aka posh rubber bands) as they’ve gone a bit stretched
…40 quid per band 
(although to be fair they probably have a run of less than 60 per annum)

Just got in and had a quick look at the new speaker drivers received today from Japanman. They look in decent condition.
I was on the look out for some alternative 8" wideband drivers and decided to give these a go, though wasn’t thinking that they are 8 Ohms and I think the tweeters are 16. I’ll need to check and have a think about that.

Matsushita became Technics/Panasonic.

What are you going to do with them?
Fitted remote controlled plug socket for my border patrol, makes life s lot easier. Also fitted ones for all the plug in lamps.

I’ll try them on my 8" horns. See what happens. They go up to around 16kHz or so. Might benefit from using a tweeter.

Horns for 8" drivers, not 8" horns.
The wife’s pair of the cheapie Sennheisers recently caused a bit of discontent at her work. She was on a (rare) “cameras on” Teams call and there was grumbling from her colleagues as to how come she had a decent Bluetooth Sennheiser headset and they were stuck with generic garbage.
She had to tell them that she’d sprung for her own but that they were now back to £57 instead of the £26 that she’d paid. Sad face.

So they had to see the brand to know that it sounded better? They must be proper audiophiles then!

What are.the speakers and power amp?
No power amp - Buchardt A700 actives, and the box on the right is a NAD 658 streamer so a slightly weird mash up but it works well so far.

L300s are BIG, but that phono stage is a BEHEMOTH!

I got mine for £26 thanks to your tip.
I will have to start wearing mine for Teams calls and see if I can generate any bluetooth envy
