| ~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought There have been some great sounding, yet kind-of ugly speakers suggested here. At that price point, I’d treat myself to something that not only performs beautifully, but is also something beautiful to look at and admire....Sonus Faber Elipsa SE. T... | |
| Do It Yourself Speakers Holy zombie-thread, Batman! | |
