KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
The Wireless 2 are preorder for 11/30. Of course they will be better as the original wireless was quite a bit better than passive...even with a 20k front end. Having said that, the original wireless is becoming obsolete due to lack of software upd... 
Am I too big of a jerk,even for audiogon?
I absolutely do, but I do so in part because I care about the environment in A’gon. Having thought provoking discussions about who we are, makers vs. buyers, scientists vs romantics helps keep the discussions from stagnating into advice for flea m... 
Am I too big of a jerk,even for audiogon?
You definitely post for attention and to get a reaction out of people by being controversial and a bit polarizing at times....but I have never seen you be disrespectful or not thoughtful so I wouldn't call you a troll in the classic sense. P.S. Cl... 
Buchardt A500, KEF LS50 Wireless, etc. What are your top 3 downsides?
When the cell phone apps stop being supported you have an obsolete product. Buchardt is a new company and very small so that is extra risk. Original LS50 wireless is not obsolete but is dated after 3 years and has a frustrating app. LS50 has no gr... 
700.00 speakers new or used
JBL 530 is a great option. They won't fatigue you.  
My list of seller red flags
Only used once."my dedicated audio room never came to fruition""liked them so much I moved up the line" 
My list of seller red flags
This is more of a pet peeve, but sellers who claim the item is brand new in box never used...only opened to inspect and test and list the condition as new instead of mint. And then we have items with some pretty good scratches listed as a 7/10. Th... 
Silverline Audio La Folia II
Have you called Alan at Silverline? He might have a replacement driver and can best answer your questions.  
Have you ever been blocked by an E seller here?
Can you say what was misleading without naming seller or brand? It's hard to form an opinion otherwise.  
Do you guys like Adele's music?
She has a great gritty voice, but her songs all have the same theme. Sad lost love songs. So cliche!   
Emerald Physics KCIIs or Spatial M3 Turbo S?
One speaker is 2k and the other is 3k. The M4 would be a closer comparison with price and bass output.

They are unforgiving speakers. A lot of returns and re-sales within the first few months. At their price points, they offer nothing new. The KEF R3 is a safer purchase.AJ should focus on improving his under $500 speakers, as that is his talent and... 
Full Range Drivers and SET's, why is a classic combo?
No crossover phase overlap issues from speaker or amp. Point sourcelow damping factor of SET amp doesn’t overdrive the wide band wooferSET amp can tame the rising response of a wide band driver in the treble no or low negative feedback and no tran... 
Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room
I'm shocked that no one chimed in defense of Tekton. Based on everything else I've read online the Tekton Lore should have destroyed the Vandies.Tekton got exposed a few weeks ago for paying for a review. The brand and its awards have lost some lu...
