Best speakers in the 50-60k range ?
I heard the speakers and was most unimpressed, even more so when the price was revealed, GULP! The dude was trying to justify to me my concerns about the non musical sound with comments like ’it’s your cd, the recording is not good’ blah blah blah... 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?

Its a damn shame that PWK is not with us today with all the technology etc that would be at his disposal, I am sure he would be able to make a killer horn to rival anything out there. I am surprised he never made the mid range horn with a larger d...

Quiet Enjoyment: right of audiophiles neighbors to NOT be annoyed

Mr Rossi, from what I have heard him say is that he bids on garages that people have let go presumably people have not paid the monthly bill. He has said he bid on a garage and won the bid of $240. He said it was full of vintage 'old' equipment. h...
