Poor Fritz

There’s no better value and no one as willing to make bespoke speakers out there than Fritz and these forums treat his speakers as if they cost $200K.
They don’t. They are remarkably affordable and yet potential customers put him through the absolute ringer, asking for custom features, going through 2 or 3 models of home auditions and maybe not even buying any of them.

Look, you buy what you want to buy, but I think not enough credit is given to the man or his speakers in terms of the overall value proposition and I think this is a disservice overall.  If you write a 5 page review, please keep this very much in mind that you are not reviewing Wilson or Focal's flagships.  Maybe he doesn't deserve quite the same scrutiny.

I have been fortunate in my life to be able to afford speakers at prices in excess of $10k +. I am an accomplished jazz pianist by training (although not my profession) with perfect pitch. Yes, I listen to the piano notes as my basis for the right "tune" of a speaker.@kenjit, if you can build me the same quality of a speaker that Fritz can for under $3.5k with a 30 day trial period, flexibility in payments if needed and garauntee that your speakers will smoke Fritz's...bring it on! I have the money to take your challenge and will be more than happy to report back my "neophyte" comments to the entire community.  Otherwise, I have bought Fritz's speakers first for the sound of his speakers, second for the man who stands behind his products and last because the price he charges relative to the above mentioned benefits. We should all wish that this industry promoted more audiophile artists like Fritz...because we wouldn't be having so many discussions about the exorbitant prices paid for other commercial speakers. And the irony, Fritz isn't in this just for the money, he's in this industry for the love of true reproduction of sound from the original recording to your ear. Thank you Fritz for your passion!
