Speakers that will bring me down to me knees crying with joy
I agree with Audiolabrinth. I have heard Magico many times at shows and at my dealers showroom. I have heard them with top of the line solid state and tube gear. As much as I have wanted to like them I never have. I love the build quality of the s...

Skoczylas,That's interesting that you mention Habeths needs careful setup and system matching. I just read Paul Sydors review in the absolute sound that said system setup and associated gear are not that important to get Harbeths to sound great. I... 
Which Harbeths for 14x35x12 living/kitchen space?
Joejoe,I don't see them as overpriced. They seem like a bargain compared to Wilson or Magico.

Zephyr24069,You make a very good point. "They need us as customers, we don't need them"  
Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women?
They say there are woman audiophiles but I have never met one. My wife loves music but she hates if I ever talk about equipment. I don't know why women are so turned off by equipment. The only thing I know for sure is that they are. 
Turntable Wars- Reviewers take sides
My father was really into Jazz so growing up I got to see Miles Davis, Cannonball Adderly, Herb Alpert and Buddy Rich. When I look back I was really lucky to see such great artists.  
Turntable Wars- Reviewers take sides
I have always wondered why these high-end audio snobs always downplay VPI. I guess it makes them feel superior to the average audiophile that can't afford the overpriced tables.
