coincident speakers do you have troubadors


Finally buying a pair of coincident troubadors but am looking for anyone who has them and also troubass. If you have or have had I have a few questions as I can't seem to find anyone selling troubass so looking for suggestions on something that will complete the sound of the troubadors as well or better than troubass speakers. Thanks for your help

Thanks for the info and I have sent Isreal an E-mail asking for a pair but he must be to busy with his 8speakers to be bothered with the earlier stuff. My Troubadors are cherry high gloss and very pretty. My brother has been "playing" with builing speakers but these may be a bit over his head.I am running solid state but could go tube at anytime. What I have works well. Love the sound of the Troubadours for old, old, blues and jazz. Like some classic rock too but when I hear the old female vocals nothing sounds better. If you ever want to sell the Trubass keep me in mind although do not know if I could afford the 10x price. Ha Ha Thanks so much for you input as it helpfull. Lori
Thanks again for your response and the info on designing the speakers. I will pass it on to my brother and see if he can make them for me.

Intresting to hear your opioion of Israel and his company. I had heard of others who got no response from him also. What a shame it is for a business person not to take care of their customers.

Good chatting with you.
Well what have you done to get his attention?

I agree with your view on his products have Troubadours and would love to have Trubass but do you think he cares?

Doubtfull, and its a shame because he should. The early sales of his speakers is what brought him his claim to fame
Wow first thing he is a she and not a he-she. No offence take "guys". ha ha

Isreal I did send you an E-mail but I will have to look in sent files to see if I have deleted it but it was within the last week.

My Dad spoke with you and praised you. I have great respect for your products and have always wanted my Dad's Troubadours. He sold them to another friend of mine(who also tried to contact you to no avail) and I just bought them. I just want some info on Troubass so I can enjoy them for as long as I can. If you have no time to build a relatively simple speaker then ok give me the info so someone else can.

See I figure sometimes we get to big to remember how we started and thats ok if you MAKE IT RIGHT.
By the way I must agree with the EVERY single E-mail being answered it is not happening and darn I am hating that it has happened to me. Of course my Dad got personal phone calls back. Oops I forgot that was ten years ago. Must have been the six hundred era.
Well I sure did not have the intention of starting all of this I simply wanted to hear from others who owned Troubadours and especially Trubass. I also have high regards for Coincident and am extremely glad to own a pair. Mr. Blume maybe my E-mail got lost in cyberspace and if so I am sorry but so have others. I will try to contact you again and see what happens but I do respect you for designing great speakers even though they are to expensive for someone like me. Trelja sorry to get you so fired up and you were very helpful to me and I appreciate that. To all enjoy the music whatever system you have!
By the way Mr. Blume I have been led to believe that the Trubass is a relatively simple design. Given that, if you have a customer who is willing to PAY to have them built how can that not be cost effecient? Not only do you stand to have a customer who is happy but you may have a repeat one who, if given the economic means, may purchase from your current line. I think that the hardest part of building the Trubass would be matching the finish to the Troubadours. If you don't want to produce them how bout sending me the design and I can ask another to do so?
Well I started this all with a simple question which Trelja took the time to answer me. I have the heart of an audiophile but not all the knowledge. I use Audiogon as an area of learning. I read numerous forums both here and there, ask questions, and am starting to learn how electronics work. KUDOS for Trelja for trying to help me when he probably knew I was a bit of an idiot. I do not care if he if a manufacturer, actually I an glad because if I have the means to I WILL do business with him. I also swear by my Coincident speakers but could NOT get answers from Mr. Blume. No big deal I found someone who could help me so I no longer desire his help. Once again, thanks Trelja you are an A-1 audiogon member and I will continue to try to seek your help and advice!
I agree but they started it. Oops acutally I did. Sorry really didn't mean to initiate such a food fight.
Hey Dannym63. Do you still have a Ford plant in your neck of the woods? My 98 Ranger needs an oil change so I thought maybe I could take it there and have it done and maybe stop and say hi and listen to your new speakers. It is always nice to kill two birds with one stone.

No negativity in this post. LOL
What a great suggestion. Hummmmm I know I will take it to Coincident and while I am there I can demo some subs to go with my Troubadours.

Good luck with the bi-amping and can't wait to hear the new system.
