Best speakers in the 50-60k range ?
Seeing as you like horns, consider whatever Acapella with the plasma tweeter that fits your budget.

Another "Help me choose my speakers" thread
There is a pair of Audiokinesis Prisma for sale here right now that would work pretty well. Heard them at the Axpona show a few years ago and found them to be a good sounding speaker. They are efficient enough to work well with a 30wpc receiver an...

Cmsgolf, really don’t know why you have this evangelical hatred of the Persoanas.Audiotroy, when did I ever say that I hate the Personas? Please find it for me. I think they are a very good speaker, that is unfortunately too tipped up in the top...

@ahofer I hope you end up buying something you love and can live with for the long term. I would be wary buying something that you find a fundamental flaw with, no matter how much someone may want to sell them to you. No amount of cabling, footers...

I listened to them toed in a bit, and if you look around you'll read a bunch of reviewers/users are setting them up facing straight ahead to avoid an overly bright presentation. Apart from the brightness, I think the Paradigms are *very* stiff ...

So ahofer heard the Personas at Audio Doctor and still found them bright. Apparently, there are no dealers in the country that can tame the brightness. Maybe Audiotroy can chime in here and blame his hearing for the perceived brightness. When I ha... 
Integrated Amps - Ayre vs Pass Labs
I understand that Legacy states you can adjust phase using the Wavelet. What I don't understand is how it can be done after the crossover has completely mangled the phase performance of the speaker. The damage is done and you are not individually ... 
GO PATS!
Six Superbowl rings is more than any other has. As much as I hate the Steelers, I would still have to say that you are wrong.  
Recommendation on power amp
@waltersalas     He clearly doesn't capeesh. His answer to you makes that pretty obvious. Most self aware people would take a hard look at themselves if that many people were trying to tell them there was something wrong with their behavior. Not t... 
The Music Room
The item they described as in perfect working order had issues.As we were in the middle of a cross country move I disposed of the tuner  because of my frustration and hassles returing it etc.I contacted TMR.Although I realized I was ineligible f... 
Best audio companies and dealers
@oddiofyl    Maybe he can nominate himself, he seems to do it often.As far as companies go, Legacy Audio should be on this list. I have had many dealings with them. In all of my experiences with them over the years, they have  been prompt, polite,... 
Mirage 460's for $100 - good deal?
I owned a pair of 760s (next step up from the 460) for a couple of years back in the early 90s. They were a good speaker, but I am not sure how they compare with what you have as I have never heard the M12. The 760 sold for about $1000 back then a...

Just so you don't miss my point Audiotroy. You are, IMHO, self serving and unethical. That is why I would never set foot in your store. It doesn't matter how great you are, or how great you think you are. That pretty much sums up the other posts t...

I have seen a lot worse than what I had removed today left in threads on this site. Someone must have some pretty thin skin.
