Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it?

@tomic601 .....*S*, and you won't get a argument from self re @ghdprentice /Brian....always seems a gentleman... ;)

...and whether it's grain, sand, oats, or even cockleburs, I tend to tease a tad....*g*

AMT & Walsh fan that I am, I feel I've eliminated that sort of 'roughage' from my audio diet....dome tweets and piezo versions, however, are nearly absent in my local focal locus...and the remaining pair are part of a pair of speakers kept in midrange where they don't annoy....

We all have our foibles....and means of coping...

....and, for now, I'd rather wait for Sandy Paws....;)

Happy Pre-Christmas, y'all.... 

Being dealers didn't make us smarter. We just had a bigger toy box to play in. And, the opportunity the frolic a little longer before someone called a timeout. Sometimes we even got paid to play. Not a bad gig for 40+ years.

Is your room really 90 feet long? 

@ronboco 

It is 90 feet from the speakers to the first full length solid wall. The house is open concept. The media room is open to the kitchen which is open to the dinning room. At the front of the house you have my wife's office, the front entryway and the Fireplace/living room. Only the office and bathroom have doors.

I will bet those speakers can fill it up with awesome music !
