Dertonarm I think Unoear , Syntax and others that you have personally guided in their quest to better sound are very lucky.

As seriuos and deeply involved in this hobby as Syntax and Unoear are I think you will in the end save him an enormous amount of time and loads of money.

There are many unique and interesting places in this world and Texas is one of them.
My long ago experiences with many Texans have left an impression with their overwhelming hospitality and down to earth kindness.
One line that I heard often and still get a kick out of when I think about it,,Were Fix'n on hav'n a big ol Texas BBQ, bring yerself and yer little honey and thats all you need to do.
Great food! , good music! and tall tails!

Now is it true that Alan, Unoear, lost his ear in some cowboy saloon fight?
In_shore, thank you for the kind comment.
Well - in any case Unoear lives up to the best you've heard about texan hospitality.
Syntax and myself had a few great days as his guests and the audition and talking as well as the fine food and wine left nothing to desire.
Unoear is the most relaxed audiophile I have ever meet - this in the most positive sense of the word.
I will be back with Unoear in a few weeks and we'll see how the shoot-out develops.... ;-) ....
Rest assured that we'll come up with a great final(? - rather preliminary...) report before xmas.
Cheers,
D.
Ah yes - Unoear still has both ears and a well working audiophile brain in between ... so he has survived any Saloon fights with flying colors and no damage.
Hello Raul,

Yes, the Air Force One looks interesting, maybe even a little like the big brother to the NVS. I will be interested to hear Thuchan's inpressions when he gets a chance to give the Air Force One a listen.

As for the Wave Kinetics NVS, it appears from the inside track, that it may have lost its bearings...
Hello Lewm,

I do like your system; nice synergistic setup, congratulations!

Regarding your 458 Italia...Rosso Corsa?
