| Poor Fritz The rule of thumb in hi-fi manufacturing is to price a product at ten times the cost of parts. Assuming that is for selling through brick & mortar retailers, for direct sales let’s cut that in half. Even at five x parts, the $3500 Fritz is s... | |
| Poor Fritz EVERY speaker has dirty secrets that the audio industry does not want you to know!! Every speaker I have bought even from B&W had weaknesses. The fact of the matter is, threads like this shamelessly promote all of a speakers strengths and deli... | |
| Poor Fritz If those speakers had a Wilson badge they would be 5x as expensive and to my ears comparable sound quality (and better than older Wilsons) given the size restrictions. So are you saying the wilsons are a complete scam? That appears to be exact... | |

| Poor Fritz I honestly don’t know how the moderators here justify not banning him as he contributes nothing and just pollutes the site. So I it goes...There is no rule that says you will get banned for not contributing anything that 100% of forum users will... | |
| Poor Fritz @perkriIf you disagree with any of the points Ive made the onus is on you to refute me. It is devious of you to think you can win the argument by silencing me.Clearly you are unable to provide any reasons to refute me which is why you would rather... | |
| Poor Fritz Some of us could not do it right even for $22000. We pay others to do it better. so if i wanted to charge you 2000 bucks to change your lightbulb, would that not indicate that i was being unscrupulous? | |
| Poor Fritz And by the way, I solely got him banned for a month. If 10 of us got together and e-mailed Tammy we could vote this yahoo off this site. Why do you say that as if its something to be proud of? you ought to ashamed of yourself for getting me ba... | |
| Poor Fritz Not only are you obtuse, but your math doesn’t work.How can you buy drivers for 300.00, pay a cabinet maker and still save two thousand dollars on speakers that cost 2200.00? By buying the mdf and gluing it together yourself obviously. It wou... | |
| Poor Fritz When you see a doctor, why do you pay money? Experience, expertise, training, and good advice.Its highly offensive to suggest that there is any expertise involved in screwing a pair of drivers into an mdf box. Where is the expertise in that? The... | |
| Poor Fritz The fritz speakers are pretty overpriced it seems. The FRITZ CARBON 62 Way stand mounted monitor costs $2200 and uses sb acoustics drivers which are about 300 bucks in total. So youre paying about $2k just for the box plus labor. I'm sure you cou... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way No, because they're NOT "custom-designed" for your ears. In which case they need to be modified so that they are custom tuned to my ears. | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Should i bother listening to these speakers? I could get a demo however keep in mind that i heard the reference 1s and wasnt impressed. I heard the blades and they were not bad. The blades would be acceptable for background music or for the aver... | |
| Wanting to get back into the hobby and want to start with the speakers. It is called jern a tiny compact monitor with perhaps the most inert cabinet ever made cast iron and graphiteIron is not inert it rings like a bell. If you want inert you will need a concrete wall at least 12 feet thick. Anything less is a compr... | |
| Wanting to get back into the hobby and want to start with the speakers. If you like the sound of magnepan all you need to do is buy a box speaker and remove the box. Then you will have a boxless speaker. It wont sound very good though. |
