Re: Fenestria
Absolutely, plus it looks like you have to know what you are doing during assembly.

Re: Fenestria
Joe.......Yes, it looks like a two person assembly would be necessary. At $52K you certainly wouldn't want to mess it up trying to assemble the speakers by yourself.

Re: Fenestria
dznutz.......I saw the price listed as £45,000 in an article from the Munich show. I used the Google currency converter which is now showing $58,000. Another quick search a few minutes ago of CEPro brought up an article that says the Fenestria is $65,000. You win.

Re: Fenestria
PMC is one brand that I’m sorry for not demoing or even owning. I briefly heard a mid level model that was wonderful. Unfortunately never got the chance to follow up with them.

Re: Fenestria
PMC has an unusual marketing approach... Many years ago they were affiliated with Bryston and shared common US distribution, then they switched to a well established US distributor, but a couple of years ago they setup their own distribution branch in the US. I expected after taking over their US distribution that they would expand their dealership representation but it hasn't happened. It remains a brand with very limited distribution that has no dealers across large portions of the US. They seem to have very good success in other markets and are a well respected brand with unique transmission line technology, but I'd really like to see them gain more exposure and availability in the US market.

Maybe that’s why. They were difficult to find. Originally Posted by Jack
