@knotscott There will be a part II

Part II came out yesterday. I found it shortly after seeing your reply. TY!

Who in the world spends $30k on a pair of speakers?! That’s absolutely nuts!

You’d be surprised. There’s a whole world of upper tier audio gear that seems to be thriving, some of which truly outperforms what most of us have access to, but that level of sound can be surprisingly finnicky to setup and to the entire system chain. Focal, Avant Guarde, YG Acoustics, Clarysis, Enigma, Magico, MBL, Gryphon, and a slew of others.

Hey, if you don't like them, send them to me.  I'm sure I can "suffer" along with them.  *grin*

Danny better be careful. Those guys that own Wilson audio are Mormons and they are known to be involved in unfortunate accidents if you know what I mean. I can’t believe he trashed them so bad he’s barking up a tree with a very big dog at the top of it. All I would take is a couple hundred thousand dollars worth of attorneys fees for him to defend himself and GR research would be broadcasting from a dumpster somewhere in Tennessee

FWIW, whatever changes Danny makes to the speakers other than upgraded parts, will make it sound like something other than a WP. If that’s what the owner wants, he bought the wrong speakers in the first place.

I wonder if we will ever find out if the owner will be happier with them when he gets them back. That is the only part that matters. If someone has the patience to scour the comments and post that we all would appreciate it!
