@gdnrbob2 I'm not opposed to purchasing used speakers.   
What in your mind represents real technological advancement.
Well said wolf.  The "faith based" audiophile is truly an amazing thing to behold.  
Tekton tweeter design
How do I know that Tekton's designer has his act together?  Because the drivers in my Tekton Enzo 2.7s are dirt cheap, yet they sound pretty good.  A perfect example of the whole being greater than the sum of the parts.  Now, if they would produce...

Best Headphone system under $1000???
Beyer Dynamics T1Sennheiser HD 800If you have an old receiver or integrated with a headphone jack, use that until you save another $800-$1000 for an amp. 
Blackberry Smoke....
@tomic601 You know great music when you hear it brother!  I had never heard of these guys.  10 minutes into their Live In North Carolina" video on YouTube I bought tickets to their Crawfish Music Festival show in Biloxi later this spring.  Thanks ... 
Why are low impedance speakers harder to drive than high impedance speakers
Since the OP thinks in mechanical terms, this analogy may best describe how speaker loads affect an amp. Imagine the amp is a somewhat fragile flywheel that will fly apart at a certain RPM. If you apply a resistance (an 8 ohm speaker load in elect... 
Best return for the money, system upgrade suggestions please.
A second subwoofer or some kind of decorative room treatments and or bass traps.  With 2K you could do both!  
Music I would succumb to under torture

Speaker wiring question
I would like to ask you proponents of bi wiring a question.  At what point along the run of speaker wire would jumping across to a second pair of wires constitute "bi wiring"?  Could I tap into the original pair at the mid way point, jump across t... 
Speaker wiring question
" Still just wondering if you're not biwiring does it make a difference if you're using the low or high posts?"No.  It does not matter.  They are electrically identical.  I will add, that unless you just enjoy spending money on wire, there is no ... 
Speaker Width?
I would move the speakers in as close to the sides of that cabinet as possible, but more importantly, I would toe them in to the point where I could see the outside edge of the speakers when sitting back in the main listening position.  In other w... 
Small drivers vs big drivers
mzkmxcv said:"the more it can move back and forth, the deeper it can go."  With all due respect, I don't think this is accurate.  The more the cone can move back and forth is more a function of the volume it will play a given frequency,  not the... 
Usher DMD tweeter upgrade: worth it?
Yes.  I own a set of these as well.  They do in fact sound wonderful.  If I could somehow take the treble from my Ushers and put it with the midrange and bass from my Tektons I do believe I would own the perfect loudspeaker.  Oh, and not only do t... 
Movies employing music in a great way.
The movie Glory had spectacular music!  Very moving.
