WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
Elon Musk is not permitted to sell his "Made in America" cars in several AMERICAN STATES (because he went manufacturer direct), thanks to the dealer mafia. You can buy a Kia and a Toyota in those states. We know all about the dealer mafia.  
Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums?
Dealer joins audio forum. Pushes product. Tells users he’s right, and they are wrong. Gets push-back. Gets butt-hurt. Starts thread bitching about this situation. i have I missed anything? You got that right...He must be hurtin on sales becaus... 
Mobile Fidelity - SourcePoint 10 Bookshelf impressions?
I am curious and somewhat skeptical of the 10" concentric driver, but that is probably because I do not like new things, and that concept is new to me. I do note that MD has a pair of open boxes for sale and it appears as if the stands would run... 
Nearfield listening - once more
@o_holter  You cannot get big 3 way or 4 way speakers with multiple discreet drivers to sum and provide a coherent presentation at nearfield distances. The ideal speaker for such an application is a 2 way single concentric driver ( tweeter and mi...

Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
Always wanted to try a small speaker like the Dali Menuet. Picked up a NIB Dali Menuet SE here in the States, probably the only only left. After what I thought was a reasonable amount of breakin period, I listened and compared to other speakers I... 
Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
Although I didn't return them, I was very disappointed in my KEF LS-50s, in my living room, both with and without a subwoofer. I even put them through a thorough break-in to make sure that wasn't an issue. They just just sounded small and lost. T... 
Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
Sent back Tekton Double impacts. That tweeter array was not for me. Instead ended up with Legacy @nitrobob , I had the double impact in one of my rigs for a few months before i offloaded it/gave it to my nephew. Of course, the Youtube reviewers... 
Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
Kef LS50 Meta.I’m not so sure that I didn’t get a bad set though. The left speaker sounded like it was breaking up at volume. I’ve also owned some sacred cows on this forum from smaller manufacturers that shall remain nameless for fear of repris... 
Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
But then I don’t buy speakers just hoping they will just happen to sound good. If my research suggests (absent an actual in home audition) that the speakers have the characteristics that are important to me in the first place, which are supported...

LSA 10 statement speakers I still have PTSD @grislybutter  Sorry to hear that the statement failed to make a statement. I hope all associated PTSD heals over time 😁.

Female vocals
I guess i must be a minority in the club of dudes sitting around in Bonerville enamored by "female vocals". I can play a couple of instruments, but, i can’t sing....I’ve always envied guys who can sing.   Geoff Tate (Queensryche) (Diana Dumass ... 
Is it better to mount Sony HT A9 speakers or use stands?
@dbphd  For optimal results with the 360 spatial mapping cal: - Place them on stands, like you would place bedlayer speakers (2 fronts, 2 surrounds) in a atmos setup.  - Try to place all 4 speakers equidistant from the listener - A flat ceilin...
