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.

You guys haven’t been out lately to shows have you? Have you seen what’s on the market these days for $28k? I attended the Florida audio expo a few weeks ago and most of the speakers cost more than you he PSA speakers and they sounded like crap. The fink 2 way was $33,500 on special and my small revel floorstanding speakers sound better. I also listened to the bigger speakers across the aisle and they sounded decent but they were $120k. My large ushers sound better than these and I bet the PSA speakers would sound better too. 

As for trade tag reviews, you know ahead of time they are going to be the best of the best since PSA pays for ads in these mags. 
BTW, the 2nd install YouTube video of the PSA speakers were from a guy that replaced his rockports which are pretty good speakers.
