Best new loudspeaker

Following on from Goatwuss' comment, I find it strange that these three 'users' who are promoting this new speaker all have previous transactions with each other.

I guess we're just talking about one user, not three.

the quads unlimited quad 57 are closer to real than anything out there, period.

Time for all those speaker manufacturers to close shop and admit defeat....they will never better this 50+ year old product!

Why everyone does not own one remains one of those mysteries...

for you skeptics your are partially right in theory
Dallas is my cousin ,but that is far as it goes ,we all have our own choices ,such as you may hang with a group and follow advise if it is good .If you never heard the NSR D-3 speakers than don't knock them .

hi shadorne:

there is no mystery. no component is perfect. since imperfection is all that is available, there is a variety of imperfect products, preferred by a variety of hobbyists.

when taste is the motivator of behavior, many products will flourish. this is true in other industries as well.

a successful enterprise will differentiate its product from that of its competitors, thereby helping to insure its viability. manufacturer's do that as well as trying to convince buyers of the superiority of their products. if enough buyers are convinced, such businesses are successful.

hi audiophile1958:

you can have a negative attitude toward a product initially, even if you haven't heard theproduct, if it is a member of a class of products to which you have been exposed and the result has been a dislike for such products.

for example, while i have heard many cone speakers, i am skeptical that i would like a cone speaker that i have not heard, based upon my vast experience with cone speakers.
it is highly unlikely that i will ever own a cone design. yet i have not auditioned every cone design.

when i hear of a cone speaker that is highly regarded, i am inclined to think i will not like it. of course, i would need to audition the speaker, to confirm my predisposition. however, i would indeed make a wager that i would not want to own a cone speaker, based upon a fair evaluation of that speaker.
