Speaker company :HHR exotic speakers
My best friend has a set of Dale’s TLS-1s. To my ears they are the most natural, coherent, non-fatiguing loud speakers I’ve ever heard. Single driver with no crossover. And they’re capable of producing lows that could induce a bowel movement. I’ve... 
Time to move UP, speaker-wise...
Please, please, please learn from my mistakes! Never purchase a speaker without hearing them first. I’ve made this mistake with Tekton previously and now with Spatial. No matter how much a product is hyped only YOUR ears can tell you what is right...

Spatial Audio X3 Open Baffle Loudspeakers
I pulled the trigger on the M5 Sapphire based on all of the praise I've read about Spatial plus my conversations with Clayton. They have shipped this week and I should be receiving them any day. I'm really hoping they're everything that people say... 
Thinking of upgrading my Mytek Liberty DAC to?
I think the Liberty is a decent DAC. Was just wondering if other's had a strong preference regarding the other DACs mentioned.  
Thinking of upgrading my Mytek Liberty DAC to?
Hmmm...no other opinions? 
Interest in Ohm speakers
I've been wanting a pair of 1000's for a long time but they never come up on the used market.

Where does one purcahse the Black Ice Audio? I only see a few on eBay and Jolida's website mentions nothing about dealers or purchasing options. Very strange. 
Best speakers for max. $3000?
@helomech This thread is killing me! Now I really have to hear a set of Spatials. Anyone in the Philly area care to let me listen?
