Kharma, Wilson Sophia, JM Labs I'm confussed????

LOL!!!! Aponter4, didn't mean to get yer dander up big fella! In fact, I owned the exact speaker you have (in fact, go read my review of your speaker at www.stereotimes.com to find out what I think of them) and loved em!

Another fact, Pamorama (Mr. Mike) has that review pair!!

Calanctus, thanks for pointing out my sick sense of humor for Aponter4 !!!

Enjoy !!

TECHNICAL CORRECTION!! I actually reviewed the same pair Michael Fremer reviewed that did NOT have the Enigma upgrade. I enjoyed the speaker SO much I bought a new pair WITH the Enigma upgrade and THAT is the pair the esteemed Panorama is enjoying!! (sorry Mike)

Sea2, one thing I should add -- IMHO, Kharma speakers ,although not unique in this aspect, need to mated with the proper associated gear and cables and MUST be set-up properly to achieve what they are capable of.

I have heard from a number of my friends who are all Kharma owners (and whose ears I trust) who attended CES this year that the Kharma/Tenor room did NOT show them off at all. I wasn't there so I can't comment directly, but this opinion was from guys who like, own and ENJOY Kharmas. Yes, I know show conditions can be horrific, but I heard them at 2003 CES and they were not horrific. Besides, my friends were taking that into consideration. What this says to me is: Make sure you set them up properly!!!!!

Just my $.03

Hey, got taken right to the bank and then had my money stolen out of my hands! Frank i take back the comment and apologize. In fact we talked via JTinn not to long ago concerning the Kharmas that i now own and the differences in your assessment vs. M Fremer's. Thanks for your input. I am now enjoying great sound reproduction. I am glad if i caused some laughter for those on the know, that's good for the soul. Enjoy.

Sea2, if you are in the Seattle (from your moniker) area you are welcome to visit my room to hear what Kharma's can do. i do strongly recommend the Kharmas.

i second Panorama's and Fmpnd's comments (or would that be thirds?)

I'm actually living in Texas after living on both coasts. I apprciate the offer though. My boat's name was SEA2 so I can remember it. I traded the boat on a major Home Theater system about 5 years ago. My first endeavor into Hi End sound. I enjoy music more now so that's where I'm putting my money.. I don't know if there are any Kharma dealers in the DFW area. I'd love to hear them. I like the Focal tweeter. It sounds as if they are winners. I was hoping someone had compared them with the JM Labs mezzo's/alto's and could discuss a comparison. Thanks for the impute.
