anyone heard the usher 6 series speakers?

I have the 6371's and I absolutley love them.

From a build quality standpoint, Ive yet to see a speaker that can better them. They are beyond beautiful.

The sound is warm and clear. Bass is a little light, Ive heard the 81's are much better. Light though it may be, it is still crisp and precise.

These are keepers in my book, especially considering the price break.

North American and Euro Hi-Fi manufacturers better take heed, The Chinese market is coming on hard.

Nm512,

Usher is a Taiwanese company, not Chinese. Just want to be politically correct.

Fact is that the Danes (Denmark) ESPECIALLY Seas' makes the world's best drivers, best speakers. China/Taiwan, nor any other country can touch them. Never will. But will agree the Chinese amps/cdp's will make the europeans and US manufactures scream in pain at their drop in sales. There is a certain china lab that I'm thinking of in particular. Won't name.

Bartokfan, of course you realize that statement is a huge blanket that you just threw over the entire audio world. Wether or not a speakers sound is pleasing to the ear is so subjective.

Even if you were correct, the price break is so extreme between the two markets that the difference in price is getting harder and harder to explain considering performance.

Sounds like proof by assertion, Bartokfan, although I'll grant you Seas makes pretty good stuff. Ever heard of Audio Technology? Probably not, as they do custom work among other things.
