Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering
@kalali- you're not missing anything. I think if you do a google search for the term "internet troll" it will become very clear. It's a shame. This was a helpful thread otherwise.

I get your perspective and makes a lot of sense. Clearly both the speaker design and business model go against your preferences and buying patterns. Perhaps this thread isn't for you? 
Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering
Interesting how we all view a situation differently. To me being able to audition a speaker in my home with my electronics without having to pay the dealer 40% markup and sales tax is a win. In my opinion the risk is less than guessing if I may li... 
Speakers that turn your analytical mind off?
Czarivey, Not sure I understand your question...

Bombaywalla, Thanks for the response. Your facts are incorrect about the Mosaics but I do appreciate the advice. 
Speakers that turn your analytical mind off?
Zd452, Truly excellent point and one that I have a hard time admitting to myself. The problem is my expectations for the dollars spent. The price/performance ratio in audio is an asymptotic line but I believe my expectations are more of a straight...

Nice spelling...that's as and not ass. 
New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house
I've resisted posting much on the forums in the last few years because it mostly seems like an exercise in mental masturbation. That being said, I must give credit where it is due and thank those that pushed me toward the L4 Lampizator. It is a tr... 
Do stands make a difference for equipment?
I have not owned every rack on the market so I can't make a definitive statement on the subject like Elizabeth and it would be nice to know her experience with racks to judge the validity of her opinion. I wish her statement was true...It's not. I... 
ZU CAMPFIRE CHOW DOWN
I've used numerous SS amps on the Definition IV's including the ASR Emitter and my current amp Abbingdon Music Research AM-777...It's a fantastic match with the Defs. The DP-777 dac hogs all the attention of the media as a superlative component an... 
What's your favorite lyric from a song?
Sycophancy, solipsistic, Spider plays the fool to lure the fly...Them Crooked Vultures 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
It's actually very easy. You place the coupling disc on the spikes and secure it to the sides of the spike with a piece of tape. Then, just give the Defs a bear hug and set them on the spikes with the discs. It's a remarkable stable platform. Once... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
As you wish Andrew. I've posted photos of my system for everyone that is concerned about the stability of the Definitions on the Sistrum SP-101's. When you see the photos, it's much easier to understand why it is a very stable platform. 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
Fred, The Sistrum's were purchased after the Def 4's so no experience with them and previous models. Chalresidad has a good descriptionof the Sistrum efects and I concur with his statements. The difference is anything but subtle. I haven't noticed... 
Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac?
Gopher, I have been fortunate enough to hear the Metrum Octave and AMR on the Def 4's ( in different systems). The Octave is a nice dac at its price point but suffers the same tonal leanness and digital signature that every SS dac at that price po...
