Contenders are here

I ran various model Alons for years, loved the open baffle design.

Enjoying the Nola's very much. I am lucky to have a wife that enjoys this hobby. After I told her my budget could stretch to $2500.00 she calmly said, "I'll match your $2500.00, what can you get that you will love till the day you die. The following week we ordered and 30 days later they were here, birth certificate and all signed by Carl. Awesome experience!

Congrats on the speakers; I've always enjoyed Nola's models at shows over the years. They will almost certainly sound better after being mechanically broken in over 100+ hours to loosen everything up. Have fun with them!

Celtic great catch ... yes they are tasty! Everyone else thank you. Four hours in and the sound awesome Can't wait for the breaking period to end! 

By the way, sometimes it takes me a while to log in and chat, stage 4 cancer with no remission changes plans by the minute. if I don't respond right away, it's chemo brain at work! Have a drink on me! Celebrate life any way you can! Listening to music is an awesome way to do it! My blog references all of this in music, equipment and dealing with life these days!

I lust after a pair of Nola KO2s.  Nola speakers just seem to get priced through the stratosphere as they go to version 3 or Gold, etc.  Not saying they’re not worth it, but Jeez!

I had the Contender S2's awhile ago  great speaker and they get even

better as the you go through break in. Enjoy 

Enjoy the heck out of 'em! Listening to my Boxers right now. The only component in my system that's never given me trouble and has never failed to satisfy my ears.

Good speakers. You're a lucky man! Enjoy.

i thought i had logged into rennlist again by mistake...  phew... 😂

Congrats on the Contenders! Love my Boxer 1s.

Congratulations on the new speakers! I ran Alon, Carl's prior company, Lotus Elite's for a few years and loved them, had to give em up when I moved to a smaller place.

Must be very tasty, having 'plated' them for about 3 hours.  Cheers

Congratulations on the new speakers.  I run the Boxer 2’s and find them very special.  Looking forward to hearing your impressions after they break in.
