Fluance speakers
They look like Polk Audio LSI 15's which are well rated, at one third the price. May be worth a listen, with return policy, if you are in the market for under 1K speakers 
There Ought To Be A Law, Or At Least A Rule
Both sides of this have merit. I think that anyone intiating possibly negative feedback should be extremely sensitive to its possible undeserved negative effects. Yet poor service or reliability should definitely be published. Then copied to the "...

Newbee. I took you up on your recommendation exploring Schumann's solo piano works and obtained a CD of Schumann Fantasy Op17 played by Evgeny Kissin RCA and absolutely loved it. Tonight I owe you another thank you. I listened to the Ohlosson Chop...

I just bought a NorthStar 192 Transport and DAC - see thread with that title - and like them very much. I think you get them new on Audiogon for about $2,800 though they retail for 5K
