big_greg,
Yes, they are. I came across mine in a funny way. I was reading random reviews on audioreview.com years ago and happened on a review of them by a man who owned them and was so emphatic about how good they were that I went looking for a pair. I found them on ebay, and even though I had just bought my second pair of TDL Monitor speakers after regretfully selling the first pair years earlier, I bought them on a hunch for $900.00. I was shocked the first time I listened to them, and immediately sold the TDL's...again.
They have surpassed the performance in most categories of the other 17 pairs of speakers that I have owned, including a pair that was highly rated by Stereophile and would be an apples to apples comparison, the JBL Array 1400. I bought them as well after owning the Epics for about 5 years. They were beautiful, and very good, but not as good as the Epics.
They were a truly amazing creation by Roy Delgado of Klipsch.
