Avante Garde horn speakers.....
Perhaps you are right Carl. More comments by Boato2 and Jman would be appreciated. I wonder what their impressions on the bass response are. 
Avante Garde horn speakers.....
Carl I was thinking about the Velodyne subwoofers which have low distortion numbers. Have you heard the Avantgardes? I would like to check them out; but, have not had time to do so since I moved to Dallas in early June. I used to live 20 miles fro...

It sounds to me like Avantgarde may not have the equalization right between the subwoofers and the horns. With the 10dB gain produced by the horn structure I would expect extra gain would need to be added to the bass frequencies to keep the balanc... 
Shipping via UPS.
I bought a pair of speakers from Ohm accoustics last summer; one was severely damaged during shipping. UPS claimed that they were not at fault and would not honor the insurance claim. To their credit Ohm made the deal right. This is one of the two...

Sorry about the double post. What caused it to happen was that I chose the reload option from my browser after I entered my comment. Looks like you need to get all the way out and then come back in after you post a response. Still not sure what me...

I have a question for Jetmech057. When said the lower frequencies do not blend well what do you mean? Are the lower frequencies lower in volume compared to the rest of the spectrum? Your observations point out the importance of having more informa...

Boato2 I was hoping that there would be a few more comments. It may be due to the fact that these are relatively new speakers and that not many have experience with them.

Their home page lists the speakers frequency response but gives no measure of 'flatness'. I am looking forward to a formal technical analysis of them in one of the Audiophile rags. This may seem academic as everybody who has heard them seems to re... 
Avantgarde Speakers
Thanks for the input Chuck. I will try to audition them. Unfortunately, their price is out of my range right now. If inflation and the price of gold picks up then this could change. 
The Best Audio Dealer
David99, Ohm Speaker also sells factory direct. Upscale Audio sells the Ah Tube (English spelling) upgraded Marantz CD player as pseudo-factory direct since the units have to be imported. 
Amp stands- Do they work?
Nanderson, you don't seem like a bad guy to me. I think the proper approach is to take care of 1st order items like speakers first. Things where an average person definitely can hear a difference. Then worry about the 2nd and 3rd order effects if ... 
Best audio mag
I am not sure if it is still published,but my vote would be for the Audio Critic. 
Vote for best US made solid state amp
Not sure what the best amp is. I wonder if anyone has done any double blind tests with the system set up to provide identical sound levels? I suspect that amps with similar noise floors and rated outputs will sound the same. 
Best musician in the world?
Not sure who the best of all time is. However, Jeff Beck is in a league of his own when it comes to the electric guitar.
