SUT With a Manley Steelhead RC?

@bmwalpina ​but I just got offered a 65% discount for one of the Raidho from my second dealer... Were those speakers demo units sitting on their floor for several years? Would you disclose the dealer? I might be interested in such a "deal" ​​​​​​  
Visit to Mike Lavigne's house
Thanks @shkong78 for your write-up. I've followed Mr Lavigne on WBF for awhile now and I believe he spent considerably $$$ on the design of his room, hiring engineers and having converting an old barn into his listening room. Hundreds of thousands...
