| purchasing US made speakers Man up, get a pair of Goliath subs! | |
| purchasing US made speakers Imo the pair is superior for stereo. Flanking, see system images for idea. | |
| Speaker upgrade around 100k retail ebm seems to have one major agenda; keep the hype going in regard to the products he owns. It appears he wants to protect resale value of the products he owns. He relentlessly hypes them - and gets angry when he has to take a loss on a sale of one... | |
| purchasing US made speakers I have a pair of Legacy XTREME XD subwoofers that I usually use with the Whispers when I want FULL range, FULL output. Amazing difference su h subs make, even with Whispers. When comparing speakers for review, of course it must be apple's to ap... | |

| purchasing US made speakers Ah, another Whisper owner - congrats! These are some SERIOUSLY kick ass speakers! I have spent a lot of time tuning these babies in, and they are formidable. They make smallish towers seem like child's play. A tip for you, my friend; if you are si... | |
| Single driver vs traditional 3 way loudspeakers BTW, I can appreciate that for some lack of coherence in a multi-way speaker is so irritating that they will not accept it. Can’t have it both ways. | |

If the speakers are similar enough in terms of efficiency and impedance curve, one could theoretically swap them and have the preference shift to the ... | |

I triple check all connections, so no kabooms.Dealt with two liars over the years, an that cost me a few hundred. | |
| Cheap/expensive or expensive/cheap? Someone has to build worse systems. The cable skeptics do a grand job of it. :) | |
| $5k Pair Full Range Speaker Shootout - Help me pick Humble yourself to buy some aftermarket cables, and actually learn something. | |
| Why are there so many wooden speakers? LOL LOL LOL... THANKS FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT!!!! | |
| Explain what is a clean power amplifier? One more comment; for the record (again, as I have said this publicly prior), I have never berated or mocked any low budget system. Rather, I have consistently encouraged and complimented persons who I felt put together impressive low budget syst... | |
| Explain what is a clean power amplifier? rixthetrick, I'm disappointed in your characterization of my spending on audio. You are not aware of my personal finances, nor of what you see that is on loan for review vs. what I own. I would appreciate it if you refrained from attempting to jud... |
