Thanks for the Teo link, @frogman Good stuff!

@kenjit If self-parody were an art form, your work would be in high demand.

What stopped me was the way they reproduced John Lennon’s vocals on Across the Universe. They were simply plain wrong. I’d never heard Lennon’s voice sound like that in the mid/lower register before.Very interesting, and reminds me of this interes...

@kenjit If I had a nickel for every time you were dishonest in your posts, I’d be able to purchase some very fancy cables.Of the many archived posts relating to the subject speaker, the "bright and harsh" complaint is almost never found, and the v...

How is it odd that some people dont like the sound of a speaker? It happens with every speaker. It's not odd at all, but you have predictably produced yet another dishonest straw man. I responded to a specific objection to the speaker, not a broad...

@bdgregory I heard what I heard, and have no reason to make it up. Not sure why you think my claim dubious. I didn't suggest that you made up the claim. I simply found it odd, given both my experience, and the relative lack of similar opinions fro...

I ASK AGAIN: PLEASE NO MORE ARGUING OVER A SPEAKER BRAND THAT DOESN’T EVEN EXIST ANYMORE! FFS!@greg7 With the exception of my very first post, I haven’t really been arguing over a speaker brand, but rather pointing out the bias and dishonesty disp...

There is no evidence that Johnsons account is actually true. Has that occurred to you? Do you realize how biased you are by simply taking his word for it while rejecting mine? I almost feel sorry for you, as you flail around desperately, attemptin...

@kenjit Setting aside your absurd claim that you are "reporting the truth", a claim that has been demolished by Johnson’s detailed recounting of your behavior, your responses on this thread have one, deeply ironic thing in common: dishonesty. The ...

Note, readers, that @kenjit did not deny the facts of Roy’s (above) claims on the original thread, nor on this one. That tells you all that you need to know about who is, and is not honest.As to his attempts at misdirection directly above, it furt...

I'm afraid it is you who is being dishonest. Just because he disagreed with my criticism of Green mountain audio, it doesnt mean I was dishonest.I'll simply let readers decide who the dishonest one is, by copying Roy Johnson's summary of your beha...

They had a very small following and the reason they existed for so long without ever growing as a company is because their speakers weren't good enough to compete on the same level as B&w, Magico, Revel, Kef and the like. That's false. There a...

kenjit –Your extreme bias against GMA and the late Roy Johnson, and ludicrous attacks against them, have been well-exposed on this forum. Any readers who think that I am being hyperbolic should refer to this thread, on which Johnson himself expose...

Green Mount Audio Europa. Bright and fatiguing describes the perfectly.@bdgregory I consider your claim to be dubious, and if accurate, almost certainly related to your associated equipment.I had the Europas, followed by the Callisto, and while th... 
The anachronistic CD Transport? And do I really need one.
Congrats! They look very nice. One question that I can't get past, though, is why would they incorporate a complex slot-loading system? No matter what the build quality, surely such systems must be less durable than top-loaders.
