How did you end up buying the Verity speakers? What are you impressions? 
Verity vs B&W
Ggavetti,I'm not familiar with the ESL-57 but I have a hunch I would like them based on the reviews and buzz surrounding them. The highest up in the line of Sonus Faber I've heard is the Cremona M. I must say, the setup was poor (twenty other spea... 
Hyperion hps-968 vs Verity Audio Parsifal Encore
I've not thought of upgrading my speakers since the purchase of my Parsifal Encore (3rd Edition) from Goodwin's in Boston a couple years ago. I have to say that even when listening to the newer offerings, like the Ovation or the Leonore, I wouldn'... 
two way v. three way speakers
Sorry wasn't talking about speakers. Couldn't resist the connotation. 
Nordost Corporation v. Kristensen
I just hope he wasn't held down against his will and quantum tunneled! That holds a stiff penalty in Massachusetts, home of litigious innovation. I'll do a little google research. 
two way v. three way speakers
A good two way is usually easier to maintain and more WAF acceptable. That said a properly setup three way can add excitement, pleasure and even ecstasy to the relationship. You must take into account that a good three way is not easy to set up an... 
Verity vs B&W
Verity. No comparison in my opinion. Go listen to your 10 favorite tracks. Smoother, more detail, better mids, more dynamic. Hard to believe you are caught between these two speakers because they are pretty different. What else have you heard or w...

Larrybou, what have you learned from this thread? Any insights? 
Sexiest Speakers
I am very surprised that someone hasn't mentioned Ohm as the sexiest speaker. Shocked actually. Not my 100th choice either.

I love Verity. I've cycled through many of the above and they sound the best to me. Even up against the marketing machine companies like Wilson or Magico I think Verity shines. If I had real money I would probably own Rockports.I'm curious to lear... 
Apartment Drama
Tell them you have a hearing disability and would like to get a subwoofer. Bring them in and go on line and see if they like Wilson or Magico. If you throw a whole bunch of confusion at micro managers they tend to go away. Once they find out they ... 
Help me find WARM speakers a la Sonus Faber
The Verity line is just musical. I've owned several pairs. I've worked for a few dealers and when the opportunity came up to upgrade for free to a Wilson or Magico, I've always held onto the Verity's. 
The most rich music database.
Single, I'm not following your recommendation. The only real electronica site that I see there is magnatune and it won't open. Am I ding something wrong?Czarivey, I was a Manhattan kid listening to club and electronica, acid jazz, r&r, as it w... 
Why do McIntosh come with cheap plastic remotes?
It should be made of titanium and have mini-me meters with an option to turn them off. 
Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking?
Luxman, Ayre, Nordost, Verity. Two years stable. If money were no object I would surf higher on the Luxman wave.
