I certainly can understand your reticence at selling the FW to someone "odd" like that. But there is a reason it happened--and one of those reasons is that it afforded you two 301s. You will love them--I hope they are nice and clean and sound good, but if they don't suit you in quietness and performance, you can be the one to work on them. You can't do one thing to the new machines of today. I forgot to look where you are from, but if you were lucky enough to find 301s, you can still find FWs if you keep a sharp eye out. Good luck.
