Re: Selecting new speakers
Stagger, although I'm 8 years younger than you, that's strictly in chronological measuring, not medical measuring. When it was 1985 I was 31 and worked as a UPS driver. To make a very long story as...

Re: Selecting new speakers
Stagger, unfortunately, "affordability" is a very relative term. I'm 67, disabled, live on Social Security, and a very small Teamster's pension --{it's so small because I became disabled on the job...

Re: Selecting new speakers
Hi Stagger! I owned the original Spatial Audio Lab M3 speakers and they were a very nice sounding dipole speaker. But my present Reference 3A Taksim speakers blow them away, IMHO! Mine look just...
