Looks like PS Audio has a hit on their hands with the new speaker


I know that many here may not take the PS Audio FR30 seriously as a speaker.

I totally get that (as no one has even heard it) however based on the designer and 

goals, years of development, I was very optimistic.  Plus I knew the speaker would work well with my BHK300 amps.  Not that I’m in the market for speakers, but wish I was. 

Here’s the first owner report, who previously had Maggies.

Would love to hear these for myself, as I’m a sucker for new driver designs.

Anyone who has heard these, please post your impressions.

Would love to hear them in the New York tri state area or south Florida.

yoyoyaya, about that rounded bottom design, I wondered if they come with a plumb-bob to verify they are set up vertically.  ;^)

Seriously, it looks very awkward to me.  I agree that round surfaces belong at the top if utilized.

And no, I've not heard them.  Nor would I put much credibility on hearing them at a show -- only generalized impressions.  I've attended audio shows over more than 20 years and seldom heard a demo that I felt comfortably represented the in-home sonics of a system.

But I'm not in the market for $28K speakers, so none of my opinion matters.
