| Is this the ultimate 2-way speaker design? The Verity Parsifals sell for $18,500 with its matching submodule. How are $895/$1395 speakers with Chinese drivers a "hot-rodded" version of this? | |
| Tyler Acoustics & Quad There are some used Taylo Ref II at their website for $2550 with warranty. Might want to check them out virtually the same price as the Linbrook floorstanders. | |
| Advice on Budget System for newbie Tobias and Sfar thanks for your input. Yes, I'm expecting a real good improvement no doubt the CDP is holding back the amp and speakers.I may have the unit tomorrow as it has been shipped. A good weekend of burn in and I should really have an idea... | |
