Watching the PPV Spence vs. Crawford Fight with an App -- the Perils, Thrills and Takeaways7/30/2023 By Juan C. Ayllon LAS VEGAS, NV--It was five years in the making but, finally last Saturday, these two undefeated rulers of the red-hot welterweight division were set to collide. From Mike Tyson to Mario Lopez, everyone was talking about this fight. That night in Las Vegas' jam-packed T-Mobile Arena, Terrence "Bud" Crawford dominated, savaged, and stopped Errol Spence Jr. in nine rounds. In the process, three division champion Crawford become the first undisputed welterweight champion in this era of four belts by adding Spence's IBF World, WBA Super World, and WBC World Welterweight titles to his WBO World Welterweight trinket in this Showtime Pay Per View event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
And although I paid the $84.95 PPV fee in advance, when it came time to watch it with friends, we nearly missed it due to technical difficulties!

By Juan C. Ayllon Please see the addendum located at the conclusion of this review for the latest information. I first heard the aural impact of a McGary amplifier at the Dr. Vinyl room at AXPONA (Audio Expo North America) 2023 held this last April at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel in Schaumburg, Illinois. Together with a Sikora turntable and DS Audio cartridge with phonostage, the McGary SPA1 Vacuum Tube Preamplifier and MA1 Vacuum Tube Monoblock amps enchanted with the music they channeled through a pair of Usher Audio ML-801 loudspeakers. Now, I own the pair of Usher ML-802s that I reviewed last year (you can read that HERE), and had reviewed that same pair of ML-801s at the show previously, so I was familiar with their signature sound. However, hearing them with McGary amplification was an extraordinary experience!
