Welcome Gary. I'm not a speaker designer but I play one on TV

Congrats. What is that thing sticking out at the bottom?

McIntosh XRT 1K is my guess. Nice place and setup.

C'mon down ;-). I'm being a bit selfish, would like to hear those speakers...and Burmester. Heard of, but never heard. Sure others would appreciate ya'll coming down South.

See you make your own and in Tennessee. Any chance of exhibiting at FL Expo one year?

I was joking

I was going to mention that, but as long as you ended up happy with what you have, all good IMO. Reviewers fall into 2 categories for me. Those who like my speakers are brilliant, those who don't are idiots. cheers AJ

Sure. As an aside my latest online issue of Stereophile arrived in my inbox today, slipping on my tin foil hat and reading now...

I'm thinking its a conspiracy. JA/Stereophile may have edited the NAD M50.2 review date back to 2017 since Google is saying the Aurender ACS10 was released in 2019 :oops:

There is no such thing. We are all biased, you and I included. Even worse, we have no conscious cognizance of our subconscious biases ;-). Reviews are mainly an individuals experience with the DUT. If that is supplemented with objective data aka measurements, better yet. At least that way there...

I'd be curious myself ;-).

Knew that Saw him play bass in a band one Capital Audio Fest. Now that I didn't know.

Brad, I had heard of Morrisound and didn't realize they were still around. Saw the blurb online then on TV also. I'll discuss maybe arranging a SAS tour with Alan. Many many moons ago we did one at Phat Planet in Orlando. Enlightening to see how those recordings we all listen to are "constructed".

From memory, they may be using modulated tones, not the type of droid we're looking for. That will tell speaker extension, it's poor at exciting room resonances like music would. What you need is actual LF measurements...trivially easy from your smartphone. It's extremely unlikely you have no...
