Green Mountain Audio at RMAF

Are you in Colorado? Green Mountain Audio is in Colorado Springs, and Roy is always happy to demo his products.

I am in the midwest. I own the GMA Callisto's and was curious about the Callypso, but out of my price range at the moment.

Drubin ... how were the Callisto's and Continuums ? IIRC you own Europas ?

I spent a lot of time with Roy in the Callisto room. He didn't play Europas for comparison, but my impression is that the Caliisto's are more "refined" (not sure how to explain that). I suspect they have more and slightly deeper bass, but hard to say for sure without a direct comparison. Apparently they will play louder. Also, the Callisto is now $2900 as the cost of raw materials for the cabinet has gone way up. I came to the show hoping that the Callisto would be the upgrade I'm looking for, but left feeling that it's probably not a big enough improvement to justify the expense.

I spent only a couple of minutes in GMA's Continuum room, but much longer in the Audio Magic room, which also had Continuums. Pretty great sound I thought, though I felt the system may have suffered from too much silver, which is Audio Magic's thing. Sounded a touch "cold".

The Calypso was nice looking in that odd, GMA way. The Pico line will have more traditional looks, thankfully.

I noticed on another thread that you said that you thought the Europas were perhaps a little unrefined for classical music.
That hasn't been my experience, but I do think that they are brutally honest about upstream equipment and recording quality.
I also agree that at $2900 the callisto has vaulted several price brackets, so it's going to be up against much stiffer competition than my $900 Europas. I'm afraid that price increases may kill GMA's customer base.
