I'll take the Fried Egglestons with bacon or sausage, Michael.

A lot of us would like some T&A.

T&A always made me laugh. Others I liked were Atma-Sphere, Audio Aero, Krell, Manley, McIntosh, Melody, and Quicksilver.

Fried seems a horrible one for a loudspeaker. Eggleston and Klipsch, though not as bad, are still no prize. Also agree with NAD. Wouldn't be interested in those. 47 Labs, Oppo, and Wadia while nice digital, all also sound weird.
