I would like that, I am frequently in the DFW area on business and often just for pleasure. What would be the best way to contact you to arrange this when I am ready?
I have only had the extreme pleasure of hearing the Avantgarde Duo's once.(AudioEmporium-Milwaukee)
Absolutely near the top of my Best sounding system list. Driven by all BAT gear and Kimber cables, I remember an unbelievably smooooth sound with plenty of detail. And the very definition of effortless. That's what my ears told me anyway, so its hard to figure out how others would say strident, but thats ok, opinions cant be 'wrong'.
listen-on
It was interesting to hear a couple of people comment on the Avantgarde's as strident. I heard them in a home set-up with Wavac SET and while I heard many of the attributes people have extolled - certain 'being there, vibrancy, aliveness', my wife and I both left with that exact feeling of having heard an annoying stridency. Just my 2cents
Ljgj I like your taste. Legacy Whispers. I must admit I do not have extended listening experience with most of the speakers talked about here. A shot here and there but that is not enough to fairly judge. Plus, the few times I've heard them the set up was less than could be expected (why is this so often the case?) and so the audition was not fair.. But the Whispers, under 15k a pair, half of the price to get in the discussion here are, I agree, a reference to determine how much $$$ you want to waste, I mean spend.
I had the pleasure of meeting Tom Boulinder(I hope I spelled his name correctly) of Wisdom Speakers at a home demo of his speakers in Michigan before the holidays. The Adrenalin Rush powered by Jeff Roland amps fed by Accuphase sent my heart to racing and the hairs on the back of my neck are still standing. Oh, by the way, Tom is a down to Earth nice guy. Spent hours with him and Steve the home owner and Mich. dealer with zero sales pressure. Great people and the BEST speakers. Yes 95K is up there but you asked about the best we have heard. Peace and Good Listening.
