Joseph Audio Perspective next steps
I think a 26x15' room is large - sound-wise, for how speaker companies design and position figuratively and literally their offerings. Case in point, size of listening rooms at my local dealers are never bigger than 20x12. But of course that may n... 
the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?
@kennyc I don't know what I want, I do know what I don't, based on what I have heard. No KEF, B&W or Klipsch (never heard the Heritage series, so I mean the other Klipsch) and then a bunch of other brands that start at 3K. I also prefer a bo... 
Stereophile and the love of hotel decor
because audiophiles are pretty bad at many things including taste in furniture, sense of humor, baking, going to the kid's baseball game and taking pictures.   
the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?
@jeffseight it was not my intention to hold back my location. Apologies if I gave that impression. San Diego, CA @kennyc the 8 is on my radar. I have a small-ish room, it would be perfect. @jdougs I love the KHLs. I am a die-hard collector of an... 
B&W line up
I wondered about this too. As I browsed over a 100 speaker web sites last month, there is only one common theme, they are all confusing, not just the naming but the way they are presented. No idea which way is up, which model is better, newer, mor... 
Would It Be Possible To Get Help Finding This Song?
this post will be removed soon, the trolls arrived  
Salk Future TBD
@snapsc wow, that's a big deal! CSS is a pretty amazing company and I see the challenges of running (merging?) two very different brands. I guess it's really not that simple. Very different philosophies.  
most beautiful (looking) speakers
@scotandholly pretty interesting speakers, not sure about the pink, but definitely cool design!  
Salk Future TBD
this is horrible, is my first impression, for such a well regarded brand. I don’t understand this: They simply did not feel confident they could market speakers at prices what marketing? Salk is such a well-known brand, if you build it, they w... 
Would It Be Possible To Get Help Finding This Song?
yeah, for me, FoxNews is not news but some form of entertainment from imaginary facts, but that has nothing to do with the song. When I hear a song, I memorize the lyrics and find it, there are decent sites to search  
Do my ears deceive me??
I would say ditch the old speakers and buy something way more expensive  
Picking Speakers 20k-30k
@ronboco @gordon  just curious, did they just "update" the price, or they changed the speakers too?  
Picking Speakers 20k-30k
@firstonetallguy I built a database of the following (mostly to just share with audiophiles and help my understanding) most (90%) audiophile speaker companies in Europe and North America, with all the company info - about 90 companies their chea...

Picking Speakers 20k-30k
@gordon got it, thanks!  I guess I am not 26K short of buying it then :)
