How would you feel
What brand? I could use a $9000 amp for $3700. 
SVS ULTRA Monitor or POLK LSIM 703?
"There, fixed it for ya." Thanks lolJust go listen with an open mind. If you do there is no way you will bring polks home. 
SVS ULTRA Monitor or POLK LSIM 703?
Not the polks. Really that is much better stuff put there. 
JL Audio E112 review
Yes maybe just too new and not many have heard them. I have demoed the Focal 1000be with a pair of Fathom 13"s. The 13"a were low pass filtered under the 1000be and the sound was not even close to what I am getting from the E112 using the internal... 
B & W Speakers - What's Up?
Do not buy! There has been tons of fraud in this site on the last year. Be careful. I would never wire money with out meeting in person first. If you are shopping in the $10,000+ range a plane thicket is negligible. 
JL Audio E112 review
Not much interest in these I guess. Anyway I ended up getting two E112. I had the 10s on order but they did not come in so I just upgraded to the 12s. I am using them in stereo and using the internal highpass crossover (dac to sub to amp) with a p... 
Anything happening at the new Thiel?
It just looked cut and past because they did not update the bass driver. Why not design an 8" version of the 3.7's driver for the 2.7. The 3.7 has always sounded pretty good but their price has crept up to $15,000 now while speakers like Revel Stu... 
Anything happening at the new Thiel?
Wow you are right not one word about Jim Thiel?!? Then firing Kathy a big part of the company I am sure. In the past I have been on the fence about buying 3.7s but honesty other brands have now surpassed their sound (in the 15k range) and the comp...

Jl audio's new E110 and E112 have built is digital crossovers. They look interesting.

Best Speakers for 10' x 12' room?
The Wilson's may be a handful in a room that size. They are designed to be close to a wall but when I demoed the in a large room 20-30ish they filled the room pretty well with bass. 
Wold like comments on the Avalon Compas
Jeff Fritz is about the only review worth listening too these days. He is the only one I ever see saying he likes one speaker better than the other. No dancing around the question. 
Best Speakers for 10' x 12' room?
If you have found the duettes bright I would blame the front end. I demoed them one time years ago and remember they had a warm tone, i heard them in musical fidelity equipment. I do think they are over priced though. If you have the budget you ma...
