aniwolfe was right, the 2.5 meter pair was originally priced at $2k. When I first saw that, I backed off right away. 'Affordable' to me means less than $1k. I may be able to stretch a little bit more, but $2k was definitely out of the question for me. Anyhow, I got a pair of the Reveal IC and will listen to it later this afternoon. If anyone is going to try the SC, please let us know.
