How are Hig-End Speakers Priced? the reputable speaker manufacurers price their speakers off parts cost plus marketing,distribution, research + profit. Its a hard go in the hiend industry these days. Companies without substance tend to fail eventually. | |
Benefits of brand synergy I agree with Kclone, definite synergy in staying with the same brand for amp/preamp. One of the best systems I ever heard was Meridian cd/pre/amp with Sonus faber speakers. Find a brand you like and commit to it. Mix and match approach can work, b... | |
Magnum Dynalab MD809T no, but i own a 102T tube tuner with a built in Dac and their products are superb. I am sure it is fully thought out, however internet audio is compressed band width and I am sure they can only take it so far with a flawed source. | |
Seeking floorstander for low watt SET Give a listen to the Devore O96's. They are very, very nice in performance and build quality. | |

DeVore Orangutan O/96 DirtbagI have a Haut Brion, which I have owned for years and have no desire to upgrade, it's really that good. Its a little powerhouse with the O96's in place.Yes I try to support the local dealers, but sometimes its just not possible. Cost wise t... | |
DeVore Orangutan O/96 DirtbagI bought them through Matt at Pitch Perfect Audio in San Fran. The local dealer in Vancouver, who works out of his house was not able to order them in for me. Apparently the O96's are being sold only through "select dealers", much like the ... | |
DeVore Orangutan O/96 They are definitely in production as I have a pair being delivered to my home today. Apparently, unlike the Gibson series no one else but John oversees the construction of the O/96's. | |
