| Green Mountain Calypso Speakers vs Montana EPS -2 I have owned Callistos and currrently own C3s. I think DF nailed the GMA sound when he described it as natural and coherent. I have also owned several pairs of Montana speakers culminating with the model you mention. While Peter's speakers are ver... | |

| Emotiva vs. some bigger boys I don't care what speaker you own, once you get it dialed in correctly, there should be no more "moving around" involved. I had 1.6s and 3.5s and both were easier to move around than any pair of monitors + stands I have ever owned. But, to each hi... | |
| Emotiva vs. some bigger boys I'm still shaking my head at you replacing 1.6s with TSMs...... | |
| Aerial 8b,s or Vandersteen 3a sig. >Vandersteen and Theil are the only speakers that are designed to reproduce the wave of an acoustic instrument I believe<Incorrect. Add Green Mountain Audio to that list. And as far as time and phase coherent being "better on paper", it's ha... | |

| Dreaded wall unit Doesn't sound like much of an agreement to me. You have bigger problems than your stereo system......Shakey | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? I had the TAP-X and although it didn't float my boat, I can see what all the fuss was about. I preferred the Sonic Euphoria because it seemed more natural, while the TAP seemed more hi-fi like.Shakey | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? I am using the Sonic Euphoria PLC simply because it has beaten every 5K and under active preamp I have tried:LammdeHavillandCJArt AudioCaryAudible IllusionsIt is more natural and less electronic sounding than any active I have heard.Shakey | |
| Tidal Speakers owners I tried the Wilson Sophia, but that didn't quite unseat the P-10s. I bought a pair of GMA C3s and I'm quite happy. I sold the Piegas locally last Friday and the new owner is pleased too. As he should be, they are great speakers. But there is just ... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Calloway,You are jumping off the Piega ship? Never thought I'd see the day. I recently have too....Shakey | |
